Hi Guys,

According to skyliners net, Maldvian's A332 (8Q-IAB) is being delivered from SIN to MLE via CMB today. Do you know the reason why this bird is being ferried to MLE via CMB instead of SIN to MLE nonstop? Can anyone share the pic of this bird from CMB?

maybe some legal paperwork?(very less likely) or to hand the plane over to maldivian's pilots in CMB(for some reason) and ferry it afterwards?
my hypotheses are just wild guesses, and I don't think either are true.

I'm thinking it was getting prepped up for the delivery flight and to set course with a formation flight with Maldivian's other aircraft.

Will Maldivian Airlines come up with an agreement to maintain their A330s and A320s with UL Engineering? They had a such kind of relationship previously.

If i recall it correctly engineering work for Q2's A320 were done here at CMB by UL engineering in the past.

I was couldn't track 8Q-IAB on FR24 during its flight from SIN-CMB. Q2's A330 (8Q-IAB] was active on FR24 only just before it departed from CMB's apron E.

i see from the above pic, crew are waiting outside the aircraft and aircraft is delivering some items to CMB. I feel that some work were done in the cockpit by UL engineering and ADSB transponder switched on while this aircraft spend time at CMB.

Please correct me if i am wrong?

is 2-TSSA still in CMB? according to planespotters, it's one of the older 767s, with being over 37 years old by now. apparently it has also flown for google. config'd VIP.

I noticed few weeks ago 2-TSSA was operating some where in Far East. So it's definitely not parked in CMB any more.
