In the 1970s Ansett Airlines of New South Wales operated a commuter route network out of Sydney, mainly with Fokker 27s. In late 1979 the airline launched direct service from Sydney to Maroochydore, just north of Brisbane (Queensland) on the Sunshine Coast. Maroochydore Airport is now known as Sunshine Coast Airport. This aircraft was painted in an almost all-yellow livery to promote the new services, with the marketing campaign stating "Everyday's a Sunshine day. SunshineCoast. NonStop."
