I hope this link works ... it is a shot of 9M-MPP departing KUL to Jakarta on 30 June 2016.

anyone knows how much in millions that MAB used for bringing this 744 back?

I suspect that it was sold to stop any more money bleeding from MAB on this old bird.

I think it was sent to Jakarta to be repainted as GAMCO offers cheaper rate. A lot of airlines charter and second and.third rate airlines sent their fleet there for MRO.

This 744 is becoming the bane of existence for MH.. I hope the CoA is still valid, or at least can be extended to fly her back to KL if indeed the deal has fallen through

MAB does not have the B747 and B777 aircraft anymore - so the charter business is no longer available. It is currently short of A330s, so how can it be running MAScharter?

 

Really, so they have sold off the 9M-MPP?

Air Atlanta Icelandic is the new operator for 9M-MPP, surprisingly the aircraft is still owned by Malaysia Airlines System Berhad.

 

New registration: TF-AAM http://www.icetra.is/aviation/aircraft/register?aq=TF-AAM

 

9M-MPP joins her sisters 9M-MPC (converted freighter), 9M-MPH (converted freighter), 9M-MPJ and 9M-MPQ, all currently with Air Atlanta Icelandic.
