Thanks for the update !
4R-ALT didn't do flight on the 22-Jun but took off today as UL115 to MLE. Wondering if it was parked for tech-inspection yesterday?

Some more information on UL 306 that diverted to Medan. Seems like it was a serious incident. Kudos to the crew who managed to deal with the multiple equipment failures and make a safe landing.
A SriLankan Airbus A320 suffered multiple in-flight system failures, forcing the crew to make an emergency landing in Indonesia.

not sure, but I guess it should be time now because it's past the ()-year lease period.
edit- I dont know for how many years exactly it was leased, but it was last leased in 2015.Last edited by n863gt; 24-06-2025, 07:38 AM.spotting Y-12s and helicopters from my home..Comment

SriLankan Airlines diverted five international flights to alternate airports in Muscat, Riyadh, and Dubai due to ongoing tensions and airspace restrictions in the Middle East, the Civil Aviation Authority of Sri Lanka (CAASL) said Monday.
The affected flights, bound for Europe and the Middle East, were rerouted as a precautionary measure to ensure passenger safety. CAASL did not specify the exact routes impacted, but advised passengers to check with the airline for real-time updates.
In response to the regional airspace disruptions, Sri Lanka’s two international airports - Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) and Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport (MRIA) have been placed on standby to accommodate any emergency landings or rerouted aircraft. The authority said it is prepared to assist civil airlines affected by the situation in Qatar and surrounding regions. (Newswire)

UL217(CMB-DOH, 4R-ANA) ->MCT
UL263(CMB-DMM, 4R-ANC) ->JED
UL229(CMB-KWI, 4R-ANF) ->MCT
don't know what the other 2 UL diversions were, though there was UL225 flying at nearly the same time as the above three.
also, a J9 flight(KWI-CMB) was also diverted back to KWI.Last edited by n863gt; 24-06-2025, 08:14 AM.spotting Y-12s and helicopters from my home..Comment

4R-MRE originally delivered to MJ in Nov 2012 leased from ILFC until May 2014 and leased from Aercap since May 2014. If I remember the lease of 4R-MRE were transferred to UL during four A359 order cancellation with Aercap in Oct 2016. Can someone advise me the lease expiry of 4R-MRE?Comment

okay, now it looks worse than 4R-ALO. not sure whether UL really wants to keep aircraft AOG for painting considering the small fleet, but that needs some serious work.4R-ALL
