nice catches Kev, the S7 livery is quite nice, but probably not so good first thing in the morning after a heavy night!

thanks for posting them

As I commented on Keith's post the other day, I'm not a fan of the S7 scheme but the two do provided a splash of colour together.

The S7 livery is so that the aircraft cannot be lost in the snow.....in winter ops at their home airports in Siberia and other parts of Russia its just not feasible to have white planes, so they have dayglo green ones instead ;)

That does look smart. I don't suppose you know the IDs of the other frames parked in the NE corner do you please?

Avro RJ85 P4-GIU LAMIA but no reg worn
Hopefully LAMIA will never return as an airline after what happened to Chapecoense last year

They started ops in 2015, had the two aircraft, used them for VIP transport, especially football teams

Shortly before the accident that wiped out Chapecoense, the same aircraft that crashed carried the Argentine national football team and they had fuel issues...as in barely enough to complete the flight safely

The aircraft in storage awaiting disposal/scrapping was registration CP-2297
The aircraft that crashed was CP-2933

Welcome
oh and i forgot the half painted job 737 YL-PSD unless thats moved

As for LAMIA
afraid it is P4-GIU 2349 and has sat here few years now, has the odd engine run to remove anything that taken residence in the engines,
LAMIA never took this one,unless someone like to correct me, the other 2 are belived stored in South America since the crash and the airline been wound up, belive some got arrested following the crash and how the airline operated

Lamia only had the two aircraft, they had the option of a 3rd but failed to take it up

The airline was wound up immediately after the crash and various individuals arrested etc as a result of the accident

The second aircraft, if not the one in Norwich, is listed as disposal/scrapped....unsure where that one is then
