VH-FVX arrived in KTM yesterday from HKT. Final destination? It doesn't seem to be on the way to western Asia or Europe with its mountainous terrain.

Problem solved. Skyliner shows the ATR72 being delivered to Yeti Airlines in Nepal.

Now either Skyliner only just put that up, or I need to check my vision

Tristan, it wasn't on Skyliner yesterday when you posted FVXs departure from HKT and up to an hour or so later.

From my records this just leaves ex-Virgin ATR 72s VH-FVP (500) and VH-FVN (600) still in Australia (Cairns) to find a future life with another airline.

Correct except FVP is a -600 as well.

Thanks for that correction, Tristan. I have adjusted my records to show six 500s and eight 600s, adding FVP to the 600s. I always thought that the mix was seven 500s and eight 600s.

As of yesterday both FVP/N were still available for lease.
