Delivered to China Southern in August 2012.

This A330 MRTT was visiting Glasgow for the second successive day, arriving from Istres.

Pictured lining up on rw27R for departure home. This 332 was originally delivered to South African in July 2011 but now flies for Air Serbia as YU-ARC.

I wasn't planning on taking anymore photos until 2023, but Eurowings sent their A330-200 this afternoon instead of the usual -300. This one was previously operated by Qatar Airways until 2015. Departing for Frankfurt as "Ocean (OCN) 71 Heavy" Cheers to 2023!
