Livery

[edit]

Lynk Air's livery consists of a red stripe along the tail which extends onto the fuselage, with the Lynk Air logo in white printed across the tail (containing just the word "Lynk"), and a larger logo printed on the fuselage in black. The bottom of the aircraft's wings is red, with the white arc featured in the Lynk Air logo stretch the length of both wings. It was designed by graphic designer Kaden Chang of Vancouver, Canada.
