    They just charter around, the frame ET-ALH is Ethiopean's, as are a lot on A6 (UAE/Sharjah)

    A King air sporting 4R registration and in UN Colors was around some time ago.

                Very sad ! I think her parts are getting ready leave Kemble.

                Here are the pictures I took on her first visit to plane-grave-yard : http://www.airsrilanka.org/showthrea...ll=1#post11455

                More pictures of her on her last days in Kemble. You can see the business class seats as well:

                            Glad they didn't scrap the AN8 which is being preserved at side of the CMB. Why they didn't scrap? Was it owned by SL ?

                                    I remember reading somewhere TU-TAB was parked in the CMB apron without paying the parking fees.

                                    Hi Haleef, Any idea what's going to happen to TU-TAB? is it going to be scrapped or preserved at side of CMB.

                                        No idea. I haven't spoken to the owner yet, but I'll ask and let you know.
