D-AAEE Airbus A330-343 EAT Leipzig 22 Jul 2020 leased from Merced Capital Ferried CHR-DRS 22 Jul 2020 for conversion www.planespotters.net/airframe/airbus-a330-300-d-aaee-eat-leipzig/e54nz7I count 3 at DRS for conversion (MSN713/1107/1124), which else did I miss? thanks! 781 !

Yep 781 was delivered last month to HKG for conformity prior Air Hong Kong CMI operation for DHL. 1124, ex-HongKong Airlines should be the last one completed for this year, delivery expected year end. 713 and 1107 should be for 2Q next year. Currently its not clear if 713 has a customer yet, it was re-registered to EI-GTT after arrival to DRS. Maybe someone has more insights can help fill me up here. |

I guess the EI registration is down to it being owned by an Irish company - Stratos Aircraft Management Limited |

Apparently Stratos agreed with AirAsia X to terminate the lease agreement only and brought the frame to DRS for conversion before a known customer found at that time. But thing could change now. Stratos did secure a couple 757s for conversion for DHL a couple years ago, so this A330 could still end up being in DHL's hand. |

Here's a video of the test flight. The main cargo door and the lower fuselage reinforcements are shown clearly in this vid. |
