KC Sim 2 Report post Posted July 11, 2011 A pair of ATR72s in China Southern Airlines colours have landed in Subang on Saturday night (9 July) after a long flight from Urumqi-Xian-Guangzhou-Bangkok-Singapore. Interestingly, although both would have flown over Malaysia (and possibly Kuala Lumpur) enroute from Bangkok to Singapore, their final destination was Subang. It is probable that these will emerge as Nok Air's new fleet addition and I am given the understanding that another two ATR72s may also be arriving in Subang soon for the same destiny.

Geoff R. 0 Report post Posted August 11, 2011 Quite often its for tax purposes, or if the aircraft is leased or funded through an offshore bank, then it is easier to gain finance if the aircraft is registered in the country the aircraft is financed in (or leased from) Another reason is if a type has not already been certified by the DCA it is avoids a lot of costs, paperwork and time by keeping in on an overseas register.
