Pics aside. Was this plane purchased clean with transparency of whom the agents from all three parties are. Or is this plane just another example of srilankan's A330-300,in which the plane itself was purchased at an inflated base price just so that some high officials gets there wallets filled thus burdening the tax payer in the process.
Does anyone have the details of the price tags, lease rates etc of these planes.

Going by the two latest fiascoes (A333 wet lease to PK and the cancellation of four A359) I have absolutely no reason to believe that this acquisition is any different to those prior to this under the previous regime.

Only difference is the pocket that gets lined.

There is no such thing as legitimate business in Sri Lanka - a quick read of the local papers should make that very obvious.

As for the aircraft leases - the fact that they always lease new aircraft is a dead giveaway that it is a corrupt deal.

I don't know what they are leasing this latest aircraft for - but I will bet money that it is being leased above market rates.

What you need to understand is that aircraft aquisitions by UL have nothing whatsoever to do with the requirements of the Airline - it's all Racketeering.

No investigations - just more empty talk. It's the complete breakdown of the Rule of Law - you're living in a Failed State.

Once you understand this it all becomes very clear.

Thanks for the pics! Looks like they've gone for RAVE IFE again rather than the Thales systems on the A330s.

Thank you for the pictures, quite like the peacock painting in the partition between economy and business.

Is it something UL has come up with or something done by Airbus? I haven't seen this before, I haven't flown UL for more than 10 years now.

Now what if someone gets creative and adapts this either on the fuselage or logo 😆

**Sandaru** · 27-02-2017, 11:02 AM

I wonder why Sri Lankan didn't gave the newest addition to the fleet a nick name

Why would they use two different IFE products? Isn't that an avoidable overhead?

OTOH, why would they need the traditional IFE at all? They could have gone the BYOD route by providing Wifi and access to an on board content library.

Imaging the amount of money and the weight they could have saved.
