Pictures of Maldivian's first Airbus A321

A regular reader based in the Maldives (lucky guy!), whom we thank, happened to be present at the arrival of Maldivian's first Airbus A321 and has just sent some pictures over. 

The aircraft in question, an ex-Iberia A321 with registration 8Q-IAI (it was delivered to the Spanish airline in 2005) will join Maldivian's other Airbus, an A320 (on lease from ALC) and will be flying, mainly, routes to China.
