Sometimes they paint them before sometimes they paint afterwards when it comes to A330s. I've seen many painted wihtout engines. Those 330 painted in Chateroux are primer on the way out. But I think to some extent it is about optimizing the paint halls and engine fitting bays in TLS.Originally posted by banuthev View Post
All A380s however are painted in XFW, so that is why they are always primer in the initial flight photos.
Most TLS built A320s are painted in TLS prior to flying up to XFW for cabin configuration, but some leave in primer mostly to Chateroux or Bordeaux for paint before continuing to XFW.Comment

It looks like QR has cancelled the plan of operating B787 service to Colombo. I can't see QR B787 operating in July as already planned.

How long this lease return check takes for A340? What do you normally check on aircraft before return back to the owner?Originally posted by vishwa View PostComment
-
Lease return check usually takes upto 3-4 months and occasionally upto 6 months ...it depends on the requirements demanded by the owner of the aircraft... Almost every serialized part must match with the serial number it had upon arrival, when returning...so replacing components takes time.Originally posted by banuthev View PostComment
