Ernest adds an A320 to it's fleet

New Italian entrant Ernest has taken delivery of an A320 (MSN 2044), adding to an A319 delivered in March, with which it commenced LCC service between Italy and Albania (see previous JetTrak item: Ernest commences service).

This aircraft was delivered new to TAME (Ecuador) as HC-CDZ September 12th 2003, leased from GATX. The aircraft was returned off lease in May 2008 to Macquarie Aviation (who had acquired GATX's assets in December 2006). The next lessee of the aircraft was TAM Brasil, that was later re-branded LATAM in May 2006, before returning off lease this May.
