JAS JAPAN AIR SYSTEM MD-90 LIVERY STICKER ***** Description Japan Air System Co., Ltd. ( JAS ) ( 日本エアシステ�� , Nihon Ea Shisutemu ?) ( IATA : JD , ICAO : JAS , Callsign : Air System ) was the smallest of the big three Japanese airlines , headquartered in the JAS M1 Building at Tokyo International Airport (Haneda Airport) in Ōta , Tokyo . In contrast to JAL and ANA , its international route network was very small, but its domestic network incorporated many smaller airports that were not served by the two larger airlines. It has since merged with Japan Airlines . JAS was famous for its variety of aircraft liveries; Amy Chavez of The Japan Times described the rainbow liveries as "abstract." Many of its color schemes in the 1990s were designed by film director Akira Kurosawa . The airline's slogan was "Good Speed Always." The company was originally formed as Toa Domestic Airlines ( 東亜国内航空 , Tōa Kokunai Kōkū ?) (TDA) in a merger between Toa Airways and Japan Domestic Airlines on May 15, 1971. In the 1970s through mid-1990s Toa (later JAS) was headquartered in the Mori Building in Minato , Tokyo . On April 1, 1988 the current name Japan Air System (JAS) was taken. In 1988 Japan Air System began service from Narita to Seoul , South Korea . In 1995 the airline had 99 domestic routes, some international routes, 64 offices in Japan, one office in Seoul, and one office in Guangzhou , People's Republic of China . In 1996 , Japan Air System held a contest for designing the livery of the Boeing 777. The youngest entrant was three years of age while the oldest was 84. A total of 10,364 participants from 42 countries submitted entries. The judges included Akira Kurosawa , Masuo Ikeda , Kenshi Hirokane , Yoshiko Sakurai , and Yusuke Kaji ( 梶祐輔 , Kaji Yūsuke ?) . 13 year-old Masatomo Watanabe ( 渡部真丈 , Watanabe Masatomo ?) , a male second year ( Grade 8 ) junior high school student living near Chitose Airport , won the award. The Japan Air System Boeing 777, painted in Watanabe's design, premiered in April 1997 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Japan Air System. In 2001 , JAS agreed to merge with JAL. On October 2, 2002, JAS and JAL established a new holding company which was called Japan Airlines System ( 日本航空システ�� , Nihon Kōkū Shisutemu ?) and they were reborn as the new Japan Airlines (JAL) group. Airplane liveries were changed to match the design of the new JAL group. At that time, the new JAL group was the sixth largest in the world by passengers carried and the third largest measured by revenue. On April 1, 2004, Japan Airlines (old JAL) changed its name to Japan Airlines International and Japan Air System (JAS) changed its name to Japan Airlines Domestic . Japan Airlines System was renamed to Japan Airlines Corporation to make the most of the JAL brand. At the same time, all JAS flight codes, check-in desks and plane were unified into JAL, and the Japan Air System brand officially ceased to exist. At the time of its integration into JAL, JAS was operating Airbus A300 , Boeing 777 , and McDonnell Douglas MD-90 aircraft among others. ~Measure 9.25' X 4' INCHES Sticker (24 X 10) cm approx.~Unused stickers (peel) Conditions: EXCELLENT I DO PACKAGE VERY WELL. ~PAR AVION, AIR MAIL TO WORLDWIDE~ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ** ~RARE, HARD TO FIND~ *** ~VERY RARE, SUPER COLLECTIBLE~ **** ~EXTREMELY RARE, VERY HARD TO FIND~ ***** ~ULTRA RARE, VERY SUPER HARD TO FIND~ ~Thank you for looking!~ read more
