About the artwork
KLM Boeing 747-400 "City of Johannesburg" (PH-BFY).
This aircraft belongs to KLM Asia. KLM Asia is a subsidiary of KLM, which was founded in 1995 with the aim of starting flights to Taipei in Taiwan.
In 1995, the People's Republic of China did not give landing permission to airlines that also flew to Taiwan, which they consider part of China. To get around this problem, KLM established a subsidiary registered in Taiwan that operates flights to Taipei. KLM Asia's aircraft are painted in the parent company's colors and carry the name "KLM Asia". Although they carry the KLM logo, the crown is missing.
This legal construction allows KLM to keep the Chinese authorities on their toes by claiming that it does not fly to Taiwan itself. The same construction is also used by airlines of other countries, such as British Asia Airways, Air France Asia, Japan Asia Airways (subsidiary of Japan Airlines International) and Swissair Asia.
The Boeing 747 is also called the Queen of the skies or Jumbo Jet. It is an iconic aircraft that significantly changed civil aviation in the late 1960s.
This photo was taken on June 7, 2015 just before the plane landed on Polderbaan.
