          Thanks umedha. As far I know, HiFly does only Wet leasing and Charter. Are you sure CS-TFZ for UL ? UL doesn't wetlease or charter widebody aircraft unless they have serious aircraft shortage. Last time UL wetleased an A300 and B767 few years ago. UL already looking at offloading 3 x A333s but there is a rumour UL may get another A330 from ILFC as they agreed during A350 cancellation.

                        You're correct. I have spoken to Aircraft Maintenance Facility which based at Cambridge. They confirmed that the A332 ( MSN1008/CS-TFZ ) is for SriLankan Airlines. Paintwork is expecting to complete on 29-APR. I am going to Cambridge to take photos after its been painted. Any idea If 4R-ALS is a replacement or addition to SriLankan fleet?

                          I think it's replacing 4R-ALA

                            It's probably the extra aircraft UL took on from Aercap to get rid of the 350s
