G-OOAV (VQ-BCX) 3 Airbus A321-211 Ural Airlines MAN 09APR09

            Replacing an earlier digital photo with a better version 21-Jan-24.

Ex Air 2000/First Choice G-OOAV at Manchester prior to delivery to Ural Airlines as VQ-BCX.

First flown with the Airbus test registration D-AVXA, this aircraft was delivered to ILFC International Lease Finance Corporation and leased to Air 2000 as G-OOAV in Apr-02.

Air 2000 was renamed First Choice Airways in Jan-04.  First Choice was officially merged into Thomsonfly in May-08, however it continued to operate as First Choice until Nov-08 when it became Thomson Airways.

The aircraft was repainted into Ural Airlines livery prior to its lease return in Apr-09 and subsequent lease to Ural Airlines as VQ-BCX later that month.

Russia invaded Ukraine in Feb-22 and many western Nations placed sanctions on the country.  That lead to leased aircraft being re-registered in Russia.  This aircraft became RA-73795 in Apr-22.  Current, updated 09-Apr-23.
