I'm going to tell the history of that TAM A340-500 and that Azul Cessna as a brazilian on the A340 case, TAM received some 2 of the model alongside 3 MD-11s as placeholders, as the company had ordered a bunch of 777-300ERs, that started to be delivered in 2008 as of the Azul Cessna, it is actually for Azul Conecta, a recently formed domestic division of Azul (fun fact, the guy who founded Azul Linhas Aéreas is the same guy who founded JetBlue and Westjet, as he is brazilian but grew up in the US as his parents were american)
Merpati L-100 was interesting one since there're no L-100 on passenger configuration anymore. So, having 2 L-100s on their fleet (PK-MLS & PK-MLT), The plane have been converted to having a passenger configuration, similar to DC-9, at least to make passengers being comfortable though still less than DC-9. However, the plane didn't last long. It never became success as no airline follow Merpati (even if airline having L-100 on their fleet, it mainly used as Cargo transport). The passenger L-100 are operated around 1990-1994 before retired, converted back to its original configuration, and send to Indonesian Air Force (TNI AU).
I think maybe most of the aircraft in this video is well known. Such as L-1011 in ANA, BA, Yemenia's 747SP, Ethiopian's MD-11F, DC-10 in BA, etc. (But anyway, thanks for the author that he / she show the fantastic aircraft images for us.❤❤)
@@KayyyyyyyeeeIt is actually half BA and half Singapore. SIA never fully operated any Concorde, instead it was a joint with British Airways it was also very short lived and only happened on one BA Concorde.
@@ChescatRailfanningnope they have actually use the Concorde :edit it was the whole livery of Singapore airlines but it was owned by British airways and SIA ,British airways had 50% of it and SIA has the other half
The plane was actually L-100, and it's Converted from Cargo transport into a passenger configuration like on commercial airliner. However, the plane didn't get longer use though.

Singapore Airlines never owned any MD-11s. The ordered 20 but cancelled before production. The photo you used is a photo from jetsite which has been digitally modified.
