Hope that is also not damaged... prob C-Check?? -
Mihin Lanka used to operate on B737 in the past but that was a wet-leased aircraft (ACMI). As umedhah said earlier, Mihin Lanka doesn't have the capt/crew who have got experience on Boeing B737, if I am not mistaken. I heard Mihin Lanka has plans to transfer 4R-MRC (A321), 4R-MRD (A321) and 4R-MRE (A320) to SriLankan Airlines. A321 is a good choice for SriLankan Airlines though!Originally posted by dilushasg-bdavi View PostComment

I dont understand.. if those 3 320s are aging for MJ, it will be same for UL right?? UL is more well reputed hence shouldn't be using aging a/c...Originally posted by Banuthev View PostComment

Why re-invent the wheel when UL / MJ have the end to end infrastructure for A320/A321 operation already in place.Originally posted by umedhah View Post
The sensible thing to do would be to transfer the MJ aircraft to UL and close the shop. One hemorrhaging airline is enough!Comment

True enough. Even UL has gone with this trend, putting A320s on KUL, SIN and DXB routes more times a day. It's a good strategy I guess, and makes for a more flexible travel schedule.Originally posted by Cayman View PostComment

I thought exactly the same!! SriLankan Airlines could configure few A320s with All Economy Class to serve Low-cost market like Jakarta, Dhaka, Sharjah and Bahrain.Originally posted by Cayman View PostComment

Thanks Channa, Now I understand 4R-ALC is in service but Flightradar24 not catching the aircraft-movement correctly.Originally posted by channa View PostComment

Well that's a poor decision. Since most of our engineers are rated for Airbus aircrafts, not Boeing. We'd probably have to get engineers and technicians for BoeingOriginally posted by umedhah View PostComment

Not sure if this is discussed here before; but Tiger is pulling out of CMB in end of Aug as per airlineroute. net.
Also same website reporting Gan - CMB service by Maldivian which was mentioned here before.

So 4R-ADA didn't had a severe tail strike, it's just a scratches at the rear end. Rumoured to be 4R-ADA had a hard-landing which caused a problem for the landing-gear as well.Originally posted by LukeSkywalker View Post

banuthev: I am a bit confused, I am not a LAME, but scratches in the back and tail-strike - are they different ?
And for Landing Gear - it should have been a hard landing .. auto land gone wrong ?Comment

I mentioned it sometime ago .. and TR is starting new routes, like RGN ..Originally posted by CalgaryLankan View PostNot sure if this is discussed here before; but Tiger is pulling out of CMB in end of Aug as per airlineroute. net.

BTW, TR did confirm the SIN-CMB route is too crowded, thanks to EK, UL (with it's massively undercut prices), CX, etc for the low end / Y class, and SQ crowding the upper end - a market which TR doesn't compete anyway ..Comment
