        No idea unfortunately : ( but this will fit in with Air Astana operating flights to CMB which is also starting in December, most charter airlines like SkyUP and FlyOne will begin flights to HRI also in december... was originally scheduled on OCT.

            also, updates on the aircraft that are in maintenance? What is keeping the A21Ns(-AND, -ANE and -ANF) from flying?(I suspect engine issues but I may be wrong)
            And then, we have the 727 that's outside the 747 hangar(TU-TAB). what's its fate and why is it sitting derelict outside the 747 hangar?

            PS- I'm new to this and still learning things

            Lankan Cargo's Boeing 727 is going to be scrapped (Confirmed).. Not sure about the date.. I think during this week Lankan Cargo formally known as Aero Lanka will be receiving a new aircraft for their fleet

            Hi Haleef, Do you know how plan of scrapping TU-TAB was changed since in year 2015? We still see her parked outside the 747 hangar.

              Hi, I don't think that it will happen - plans would've changed. TU-TAB is sometimes used for training if I'm not mistaken, or it may lie parked like that until whoever it belongs to decides its' fate.
              As of now, I'm not having any idea of the future plans of TU-TAB.

                  who does it actually belong to? (asking because that leasing company and the airline are out of business)

                    edit:= aren't parking charges being charged each day it's 'stored'?

                    • news says that ALH, ALM and ANF(the 'three aircraft with technical issuses they mentioned') will take some time to complete their maintenance.
                      is ALN active or still under routine checks?

                        • Guys, tomorrow an A380 owned by QR (registered as A7-APC) will be visiting CMB from SYD. Not sure why.. But I believe it is a technical stop before continuing to DOH.. This is a very rare sight of an A380 at CMB..

                            why is the technical stop to CMB? or is it a passenger service to here(one-off)?

                              that's great news. AND will be back in the skies after storage since Jan'24
                              the other 2(or 3) 330s in maintenance?

                                Part of a scheduled plan to refuel and crew change before continuing its journey to DOH. QR occasionally, albeit rarely visits CMB for things like this, during early 2024, QR sent their A35K from AKL to CMB for a crew change and refueling onwards to DOH (Please someone correct me if i'm wrong).
