thanks for the note, It is good to see news that for many may go unnoticed, but they are good for aviation fans. A question, Why is it that maintenance is carried out in Quito and not in Chile?? or even in closer countries like Peru? Greetings
It is by availability of maintenance capacity, it is possible that Santiago, Brazil and Lima are full, so Quito is now an option.
Today I am going with my brother to the airport to pick up my aunt who lives in the United States for my grandfather's wake and I will surely arrive in the 767 from delta and maybe we can see the beautiful a321
This A321 already left for the weekend.
What a pity but it was still nice to know that Ecuadorian aviation continues to grow and that internationally they are beginning to trust us more
Totally agree.
Today my brother and I are going to the airport to see my aunt for my grandfather's wake, my aunt is going to arrive in delta possibly in the 767 and maybe we can see this beautiful plane
Delta is operating with the Boeing 757 right now.
I really like him more 757 but my aunt turned out that she arrived in the beautiful 737 MAX, I couldn't go because of a curfew or something like that, they put them off but I followed it on flightradar 24 and I arrive with a 737-800 and the 787-8 that they were going to guayaquil
Then he arrived on American Airlines.
