You are a bit too impatient, André ;)

Asking for pix at 10.19am is a bit difficult when the plane only lands at 11.30 ;)

Will normally be prepared for PIA.
Three others will follow "soon", but i am not sure they'll pass via EBBR.
To be 8O .

Have they just painted him or have they done some technical work :?:

BTW the previous livery had a very nice reverse-thrust ring painting !!

Maybe Air Jamaica don't trust the people in New York after this. :cry:

They managed to hit the hangar with the tail. 8O

It was grounded for months, Airbus had to send a complete new tail from France, with a recovery crew. :cry:

Anyway, it remains a nice livery in the Air Jamaica colors .....

However in the new PIA livery, it will be nice as well :D

I don't think this airplane will come in the future for commercial aviation. He was coming here without passengers, just for maintenance.

I've heard that in the future there will come more aircrafts (a310) from PIA to Brussels just for maintenance!

Does this mean that SN technics has signed a new agreement with PIA for the maintenance of their A310 fleet ?

Would be great for Sabena Technics to have such a new customer. :P
