Serene Air Airbus A330-200 aircraft registration AP-BNF for some reason is inactive for more than a month and apparently parked at Lahore Airport. Her sister ships registrations AP-BNE and AP-BNG have been active.

Probably it was AP-BNF that took part in emergency exercise conducted at Lahore Airport on December 6, 2021.

I was looking for it but gave up with the idea that its a huge airport and maintenance will be even far away from main terminal. So i went to the lounge and found it right in front of me. How can i post it here?

Thanks guys amd especially Abbas. I have been traveling a lot over the past two weeks so I didn’t have time yet to upload pics here. Yesterday i had a flight again from Amsterdam and found it again standing in front of me while taking off from 18L. Got some very nice pics, much better than last time and a nice video too. Hopefully i will share next week.
