Hi guys,
Who knows the current status of 4R-ADF? It has been withdrawn from use for 3 Months now!Comment

The GOSL owes $8 Billion (8,000,000,000) to China with no way to pay this money back. They are frantically trying to re-negotiate. Good luck with that!
I doubt the Chinese will touch Sri Lanka with a 10 foot pole after they get burned on these loans.
When someone invests in something they expect a return on their investment.
With UL you have:-
At least $1 Billion of debt
At least another $1.5 Billion of future liabilities.
At least $100 million/year just to keep operating.
How will you ever see a return on any investment? Especially with the culture of impunity and zero accountability where everyone is trying to siphon off as much money as possible for themselves, their family members and their cronies.
How appropriate - perfect timing! This article illustrates the scale of the problem.
It is virtually impossible to do legitimate business in Sri Lanka.
Sorry - but this is more wishful thinking imho. Not going to happen.Always fly a stable approach - it's the only stability you'll find this businessComment

A more detailed article on the wonderful company "culture" that exists at both UL and MJ.....
Never heard of this and I have global ETOPS experience. If MJ dispatched aircraft illegally under ETOPS regulations then both they and the CAA are in a lot of trouble.Nimalsiri said that according to the ‘Alternate Method’
ICAO may decide to act after all.Always fly a stable approach - it's the only stability you'll find this businessComment

Nice to see that not only are they stealing/misusing tax payers money, they are actually putting peoples lives in danger.Meanwhile, with revelations as to how Director General CAASL, Director Flight Safety CAASL and Director Operations CAASL authorised a proposal for an ‘Alternate Method’ submitted by Manager Flight and Ground Safety Mihin Lanka/ SriLankan Airlines Captain Keminda Yahampath to fly Mihin Lanka flights even when bad weather conditions are forecastComment

Looking forward to see what's going to happen to UL, UL Management and UL A350s? I wish they shut the MJ asap and gov focus on one airline UL. UL has to be closed and reopened as a new airline. Management of UL should be done by the overseas airline. None of gov appointed cronies should be with UL anymore.Comment

Nice picture! F-WZFA will be sub-leased from SriLankan (UL) to Turkish Airlines (TK). Sad to see that we will not be getting to fly in it. 70% chance of SriLankan not getting it.Comment

Definitely. If TK is going to lease the A350s it will be all three of them. It wont make sense for them to operate one example of any aircraft. I'm surprised about this news though because I did not see it mentioned elsewhere. Maybe it isn't finalized yet?Do you know if the other 2 are also going to TK?Comment

Someone in the forum mentioned that UL has sent personal to Airbus for A350 type training. I wonder how that works out now.
Will UL still have some technicians and crew trained for the eventuality of the aircraft being returned ? It makes it weird that there will be no one type trained on an aircraft that the entity is leasing out.Comment

Perhaps it's a just-in-case measure? Because as of now nothing has been confirmed about sub-leasing these three aircraft to another carrier. Better to be prepared to fly these aircraft in-case an agreement cannot be reached.Someone in the forum mentioned that UL has sent personal to Airbus for A350 type training.
