Those green ones are ex UA 735s which were used by S7 and they are going to Aero Contractors. THose are not from defunct carriers. Those 735s got replaced by new ex-ATA 738 and some brand new 320s.
Sad to see 2-3 month old 739ER's from XL and Futura stored. _________________ ~~~Indian Aviation Photographers~~~ |

Negative Sir, it seems 742 has posted these shots from "INS News Agency"... at least according to the watermark on the shots. |
