A321 3-TBXU update - Now VP-BRM and fully repainted

[AirbusA320]

Airbus A321 3-TBXU arrived in February from Russia wearing Olympus titles which assume for pending lease to this Greek operator which did not take place,
She remained at Norwich being worked in by KLM and then dumped North side. It then went in the paint shop and came out RedWings still wearing 3-TBXU and a bit more time at Norwich.It substained bit damage to the R/H Engine cowling due to wind, so a repair and re paint on that was carried out. The final chapter in this long visit was the reveling of the new reg VP-BRM, the former reg was written on a bit of brown paper which blew off, so time will tell when she actually departs and delivery enjoy this photo collection of her
