            Yes. MSN7535 is a second A320neo for SriLankan Airlines.
            SriLankan also ordered 4 A321neos and delivery starting after May 2017.

            Haleef - What's the name going to be given to 4R-ANA?

              Deputy Minister of Public Enterprise Development Eran Wickramaratne says, out of the companies that bid for the restructuring of Sri Lankan Airlines, the US-based firm Texas Pacific Group (TPG) has been proposed as the most suitable partner for the project.



              TPG Capital is an American investment company, it is one of the largest private equity investment firms in the world.

                Not sure of 4R-ANA receiving any name.. Probably might be given one in Colombo or maybe after it receives the SriLankan registration..

                  SriLankan crew no more operates for Pakistan Premiere from today. Just got this news from my father, and also the aircraft which was leased out to PIA (A330-300, 4R-ALN) will return to Colombo in the next few days time. It will not be going on dry lease to PIA, and will later be painted in SriLankan colours again. It might receive a new interior (Refurbished).
                  Still cannot be confirmed, but as soon as I get more info, I will share.

                    4R-ALN was diverted to Stansted due to a disruptive passenger.

                        Hi guys, by looking at the range of the a320Neo I think it isn't possible to fly direct from Hamburg to Colombo. (correct me if I'm wrong)

                        So when ferrying 4R-ANA, will dxb be the stop in between??

                            Hi everyone,
                            I've been trying to obtain a PDF of the Weliamuna report. However, I have been unsuccessful in finding one.
                            If possible could someone post a link or PDF for the report.

                            Thanks!

                              In the past A320 (ABM-ABP) were delivered from TLS to CMB via KWI.

                                I also looked for a copy recently - all the links no longer work. Any journalists reading this Forum who can help? I'd also like a .pdf copy for my records.
