      This frame, originally Air Canada C-FTNJ did served Air Lanka as 4R-TNJ for a brief period. Not sure what livery it carried while on UL fleet.
      According to this source, this air frame operated for Air Lanka for only 17 days. I really doubt it carried Air Lanka livery.

        Only carried registration 4R-TNJ, was never in ALK livery, nevertheless we can still be happy that at least she wore 4R-TNJ titles on the fuselage.

              Air Belgium OE-LCL left UL fleet this morning. That is the end of AB-UL wet lease from today.

                  This is a really long shot but worth a try.
                  Would anyone know when was the last BA VC10 to come through CMB?
                  It used to operate a route to BWN stopping at (if I recall correctly) LHR-FCO-MCT -CMB-SIN-BWN

                          Thanks for update! EXR was ferried to SHJ via DXB as 8D821 and 8D6 on the 24-May. Will it keep the Fitsair livery when it flying for Air Arabia. When it will be returning to Fitsair?
