    Qatar is now also sending to CMB their own A359 as well since the last few days, and even today its scheduled as another Qatar A359 to fly to CMB from DOH. I've been noticing this for sometime now, even they send off a Boeing 777 twice or sometimes once a week as well on QR662. I hope Qatar will also send the A359 as replacement for the A346 on QR664/665 and QR654/655 once it retires from their fleet.
    Those are not scheduled flights. Even today Until afternoon QR662 supposed to be operated by LATAM aircraft. Due to some reason it was changed. In the schedule for the future I didn’t find any Qatar own A350.

                  It was landed at CMB on the 03-Aug. As per FR24, the flight operated from NRT>OKA>CMB>DJB. Even in the past JAL operated via CMB for their Japan-Africa charters. I heard JAL is transporting army troops from Japan to African states like Uganda, Eritrea. I wonder why it always do a stopover at CMB. I am sure B772 easily can reach Eritrea from Japan without any refuelling stops.

                  • Good to know that one of AirLanka's previously owned TriStar L1011 is still active till now. 4R-TNJ, leased from Air Canada and returned back to them after lease ended, and is currently with Orbital Sciences C.

                          • Any reason why the UL207 flight has been changed to A330?

                              Seems like only for today. Could be due to shortage of A 321

                                That's only a nacelle change. Techs have not painted it sadly, even 4R-ALD also had a nacelle like this, but now I think it's painted. MEL flight was delayed probably due to an issue in the engine.
