Governor Calvo said, “I’m eagerly anticipating watching the beautiful jet fly over Guam. The Fly Guam logo will be a reminder to everyone who sees it that a paradise vacation is waiting for them on our island.” The airplane body is decorated with the words “Fly Guam.” Both the U.S. and Guam flags will be displayed. The tail of each plane will display a paradise view of Guam.
