VA Airbus at Bournemouth Airport

Just drove past the Airport and there was a Virgin Airbus parked on the apron - anybody got any idea why it is there?

It’s G-VYOU. She positioned there from LGW last week after being at Newquay (I think) for a few months before that.

I believe this is one of the A346’s VS are ‘storing’ as a backup A/C for a while after the other A346’s leave the fleet all together later this year.

Thank you - that's interesting!
