Lufthansa (leased from Condor)

 

Note: D-ABHD (2) was Airbus A320-214 c/n 7407 delivered to Air Berlin in September 2016.

 

D-ABHD wears a hybrid colour scheme with the silver fuselage of the then current Condor livery, cheatline on starboard side only. Note the mock-up of a fuselage section in the background. It was used for various ground handling training purposes.

 

Delivered to Condor in June 1981. Leased to Lufthansa October 1982 to March 1983. Crashed about five years after this shot operating a Condor flight STR-ADB (see information below).
