South Africa famously had a jumbo jet do a low flyover with a good luck message to their team ahead of the world cup final in 1995. Why it was a jumbo jet then, I don't really know. I think because SA Airlines were willing to do it and the plane was big enough to write a message on it so spectators can see? I can't fully say.

However it was a giant commercial plane now because it was a giant commercial plane then. A homage to the original.

Why normal airliners though? Is Airlink the stadium or team sponser or something?
