Operated by Eurowings, still in Germanwings livery.

First flown with the Airbus test registration F-WWIB in Nov-91, this aircraft was delivered to Lufthansa as D-AIQM in Janb-92. It was transferred to Germanwings in May-14. Technically, the aircraft was 'wet leased' to Eurowings at midnight on 28-Oct-17 (co-incidentally the same evening Air Berlin ceased operations). The reality is that Germanwings was merged into Eurowings and all aircraft will eventually be repainted in Eurowings livery. Now over 26 years old it continues in service. Current (Jun-18).
