Registration worn only on the left-hand side, and re-registered five days later to TC-GRB for Southwind Airlines. The similarities in name and livery between new and previous operator are no coincidence. This is the Turkish government solution to keep large numbers of Russian holiday makers visiting its Riviera, despite sanctions imposed on Russian airlines. The albino in the background is EC-MXJ.
