Nice catch, with a rather sad tinge. You may have missed some of my laments on seeing ex-AI, ex-9W and ex-IT birds in the space of some 2 hours, at the A concourse at JFK itself, on 20 Apr 2015. See the pictures at the end of the following thread:
http://www.airlinersindia.s4.bizhat.com/airlinersindia-ftopic13885-200.html
With such a fine hardware configuration, how nice would it have been to see an Indian airline flying all around the world?
Cheers, Sumantra.

I am not a jet setter. Compared to most people here I hardly fly! However I had two memorable events in my very brief list of flights.

One was transferring from one Indian Airlines international flight to another Indian Airlines international flight at SIN and I had to queue at the Changi transit desk to collect my onward boarding pass (my baggage was checked through to my final destination) but I did not have a SIN visa. Everything went without a hitch!!!!

The other was flying a Jet Airways BOM MAA service on an A320 many many years before Jet got its first Airbus aircraft.

Sorry for going off-topic...

Sir, do tell us more about the two flights: was one of them the popular IC 858/9 by any chance, on the DEL-BKK-SIN operation on an A320? I guess not. Or was it the other popular IC 555 one, on an A300?

This I guess was the leased Gulf Air A320. We would trip reports on both these, Sir!

Sumantaraji

No trip report on the Jet A320 BOM MAA... It was nearly 20 years back but I came across a trip report I had posted in Airliners.net on the MAA-X/SIN-BKK - MAA way back in 2002 on IC.

I am posting in the TR forum along with a couple of other interesting old reports of mine.

Sir, your memories are much better than most of ours. The Jet A320 in the GF wet-lease would have been absolutely unique: and even if you could put your memories down, we all will really appreciate it!

Thanks a lot Sir, now I even have a reading backlog, to add to my writing backlog woes. I will look forward to reading these in the next few days.
Cheers, Sumantra.
