Sad to say that it appears we have lost Mendoowoorrji livery with VH-XZJ heading to the paint shop at TSV over the last few days.
The livery was its delivery livery from Nov 2013 and it's expected to reappear in standard livery.

Means the only full special liveries are
- 738 VH-XZP James Strong/ Retro Roo which arrived in Nov 2014 and probably doesn't have a huge amount of time to needing a repaint
- 789 VH-ZND Emily Kame Kngwarreye since Feb 2018
- 223 VH-X4A Minyma Kutjata Thukurpa since Mar 2024

For those unaware Retro Roo II (VH-VXQ) was repainted into standard livery in Oct 2024 having carried the retro livery from Nov 2015.

On the upside there are rumours that the 350 test aircraft (likely VH-OJB) will carry a special livery.

Qantas do also have a number of what I'll call half liveries.
- 738 VH-VYK Pride is in the Air since Dec 2025
- 321XLR VH-OGG Great Barrier Reef Foundation since delivery June 2026
- 789 VH-ZNJ 100th Anniversary since delivery Nov 2019
- 332 VH-EBL Pride is in the Air since Feb 2023
- 332 VH-EBN oneworld SilverRoo since Jun 2024
- 332 VH-EBS oneworld SilverRoo since Apr 2025 repaint
- 332 VH-EBV oneworld NewRoo since 2012
