Danube Wings take delivery of first aircraft

Slovak startup Danube Wings has taken delivery of their first aircraft. On July 30th ATR 72-202 F-WAGR msn 373 was ferried Dinard - Shannon in full Danube Wings colours. Immediately on arrival in Shannon the aircraft was hangared with Signature Flight Support pending completion of paperwork. On August 5th the aircraft was delivered Shannon - Bratislava where it took up marks OM-VRA. The aircraft is no stranger to Ireland having previously been registered EI-RED with Aer Arann. Following completion of the lease to Aer Arann the aircraft was returned to Dinard where it was painted in full Danube Wings colours, a scheme which retains the dark blue engines of the Arann scheme.
