QPR Plane!

AirAsia paid tribute to QPR legend, the late Alan McDonald, with a special aircraft named after the former captain and assistant manager.

The Airbus A320 is painted in the football club’s colours with a prominent tail that features QPR’s iconic hoops; the blue and white horizontal stripes just like the team’s home jersey. The interior of the aircraft carries interesting facts on both QPR and Alan McDonald.

Tonia McDonald, widow of the late Alan, said, “On behalf of myself, Joshua and all the McDonald family I cannot thank Mr Fernandes enough for his overwhelming gesture of deciding to remember and honour Alan by naming one of his planes after him. We know Alan would have been so proud and amazed at such a generous tribute. I’m only sorry that we could not be in KL to witness the unveiling, but I feel immensely proud that Alan’s name and the QPR colours will jointly become a legacy incorporated in such a wonderful aircraft.”

Look out for the striking blue & white aircraft the next time you are travelling!
