Another Airbus computer malfunction thought is was time to overhaul the engine so threw the cowlings off ready for the mechanics to check if pilot must of turned the switch off that tells the aircraft is is still in the air.

interesting photo, I haven't seen this one before..
It can't be Air Tran: AirTran Airways operates the youngest all-Boeing fleet in the North America

Mystery deepens a little. I wonder who it is?

Imagine seeing that!!! I love window seats though - one less person to talk to if you don't feel like it

Good plan .. get an annoying side seater - make sure you have a copy of this screen in your carry on luggage , when looking the other direction quickly paste it up on the window

Cockpit conversation:

" You fool. I told you not to touch the RED button!"

Actually fear not this is the A320 NEO model (No Engine Outer )

Ouch...Boeing pilot speaking there...
Actually, when a Boeing lets an engine go, it REALLY does it.

I see! Quite right, it is an Air Tran. Did a little more digging, was actually operated by Ryan International Airlines for Air Tran (in their colours) for a year. you learn something every day, I never knew they had an Airbus in their fleet

That plane has had a busy career.
LACSA Costa Rica, Ryan International/ Air Tran, Atlas Jet, Airblue, Airblue for Saudi Arabian airlines, and currently flying for Batavia Air.
Great photo
