I can't believe they managed to restore that frame! I felt for sure that she would be scrapped!

According to airfleets.net It looks like the last A320 - VT-ADU is in the "works" to go to Bangkok airways soon.

Interesting that two of the the 330s are still stored - 3 went already out - 2 to ARIK and 1 to Vietnam airlines.
I do believe that hose 2 will find decent home too.

Really surprising is that all those A319 + 320 + 321 are out flying. Seeing the pictures some time back one would assume that some would be scraped.
