澳洲航空旗下QantasLink 10月4日在雪梨機場展示新的72人座Q400型飛機的照片,這架漆成粉紅色的飛機將被當成QantasLink區域性網路,它也是澳航和澳洲國家乳癌基金會合作的一項計畫。另一張照片就是乳癌基金會贊助人莎拉.梅鐸。
The aircraft is set to play an im-portant role in spreading the message of prevention and treatment of breast cancer to people in regional Australia.
Statistics show that awareness of breast cancer treatment and prevention op-tions in regional Australia is signifi-cantly less than in city areas.
"We hope that our partnership with the NBCF, and our activities in re-gional Australia involving this aircraft, can increase awareness and also raise vital funds for breast cancer research," said Mr. John Borghetti, Qantas Ex-ecutive General Manager.
這架飛機將扮演重要的角色,向澳洲鄉下地區民眾散布乳癌防治的訊息,統計資料顯示,澳洲鄉下地方對乳癌防治選擇方案的知識遠比城市地區要低落。澳航執行總經理波傑提說:「我們希望藉由我們和乳癌基金會的合作,及這架飛機在澳洲鄉下地區的活動,可以提高民眾警覺,同時為乳癌研究募集重要的基金。」
