Super video ! Thanks Naren! Any reason why UL264 diverted to HRI when other flights managed to land at CMB without a problem?

During the Go around, The plane was un stabilised, also there is a heavy winds, even though i stand very close to runway touch down zone, due to fog i can't see the runway and runway light. Maybe the aircraft was very light. Also following UL 264, another SriLankan UL174-4R-ABL with in one minute went for go Around at 3000 feet(6.22am), however this was landed later at 7.27am at runway 22.

Nice to hear ! Is this due to increased passenger demand or due to unavailability of narrowbodies?

Why SriLankan have to withdraw ABM from the service when they have ABL and MRE in the fleet with poor interior?

I don't know for sure but it may well be as simple as lease expiry. Or lease cost.

Don't think so. Still EGR or other checks?
