Well lets just hope that AP-BGR comes back soon. I am amazed that the whole 310 operation is just been done with 4-5 310's out of 13. Very critical indeed :-k

thats bad.
it seems the strength of the a310 fleet is not improving.it is remaining constant with each time 5-6 remain offline( missing engines/maintainance)
i was just checking a310 production list. similar a310 from air india are already scrapped as well from biman (though still keeping some)
the last operators of the last ones are yemenia and uzbekistan airlines(1998)
they should consider 1-2 older ones for spares instead of canibalising their own aircrafts
@raihan: good luck&safe jourmey.will be waiting for ur trip report

Each and every flight operated with 310 is badly affected. ISB-BKK, LHE-FRA being delayed by 6-7 hours . 12 310's in total and only 4-5 flying, God knows what's next :(
