Hmmm, last week I was dreaming about a 757 in full Aer Lingus C/S. Making a trip to Dublin worthwhile. To much euro-white for me :cry:

This is the first of three, the other 2 should get a full c/s (at least that's the plan). This one should get the full livery around september. This one was done quickly prior to entering service from feb. 5th flying the Shannon-Boston-Shannon route.

Given its registration, it's not difficult to establish its previous identity and c/n (28167/775, ex OH-LBR with Finnair). Will the two other ones be ex-FIN as well?

The other 2 are already at Shannon, on 24/12/2013 OH-LBS 757-2Q8 (27623) was ferried to SNN and on 20/1/2014 OH-LBT 757-2Q8 (28170) came in as FIN8963. Replace the OH- with EI- and that should be the new registrations.
