Why not B-wings? Or better B-winged, no direct local names but still relating to the name as is, and a very good stand alone slogan
(second slogan could become: We fly together)

Those of you who were counting on LH to send some of its A340-600s to SN will be disappointed: LH has sent a first 346 to the Arizona desert. D-AIHM was barely 10 years old!

There are several A 340's of LH stored in Teruel, Spain.
Have a look at luchtvaartnieuws.nl 'Teruel, the Mojave of Europe.
It seems some are stored also at FRA.
Also some beautiful KLM jumbo's have found their graveyard there.

The Trent 500 series is only used on the A340, so spare engines are probably already flooding the market.

I didn't refer to the A340 only; how about the other ones, then?

OOSSC is in storage @ BRU during the slower winter months but will be back in the skies by the start of the summer season.

Why these two transfers?

HB-IQI is for the retrofit of the cabin if I remember well
OO-SSM, no idea
