First flight for the aircraft since it was returned from ASP on 30 Dec.

Interestingly, from photos that have been posted, the first window on the port side of the aircraft appears to have been blanked compared to photos from before. In addition, an additional wi-fi dome appears to have been installed.

The first window on the port side has always been blanked to accommodate storage compartment since its delivery.

The test flight from SIN-SIN was to test the connectivity of the WiFi antenna as per https://simpleflying.com/singapore-a...37-max-flights

My apologies - I should have been clearer. I was actually referring to the second window (the one that looks matte grey), not the first window, which has indeed always been blocked and is painted over in white.

MBC completed its 2-hour post-modification operational readiness flight ASP-ASP this morning. Now en-route to SIN with ETA 17:14.

Only 3 of the original 6 MAX aircraft now remain in ASP - MBB, MBD and MBE. I heard in June/July new deliveries from Boeing will also restart.

According to the latest Aircraft Register, only 9V-MBF is still in SilkAir AOC (Awaiting transfer to SIA AOC)
9V-MBA to 9V-MBE have all been transferred to SIA AOC.

My guess is starting from 9V-MBG onwards, it will be registered under SIA AOC.

9V-MBD is planned to return to SIN from ASP this afternoon as MI8890, arrival 1800 LT.
