Brussels Airlines set to restore ‘Rackham’ and fly her for at least another 5 years

ICONIC RACKHAM LIVERAGE SET FOR REPAINT AS THE A320 WILL COMMIT TO THE SKIES FOR A FURTHER 5 YEARS

(Posted 06th September 2021)

Rackham, still one of the most photographed planes in the world, will be part of the Brussels Airlines fleet until at least 2026.
As the A320 aircraft ‘Rackham‘reached its repainting deadline, Moulinsart and Brussels Airlines agreed to prolong their partnership and restore the aircraft painting in its original state, meaning that Rackham will stay in the airline’s fleet for at least five more years. While the painting on the outside remains almost identical, the interior of the aircraft has been upgraded with more Tintin illustrations by the hand of Hergé.
