Maybe ex Kalitta or converted Delta L10s, because I see Arrow's L10s still busy in South America.
If its a bonefide airline - it won't be Robertson...

Negative. FineAir/ArrowAir is operating just 3 converted -200Fs (1158/1131/1138) + 1 200F (1133) sitting in the desert.
Then Caribjet operating 1 200F (late production 1212) and rumors says they going to take another 1 or 2 from desert soon (ex KittiHawk). Remaining 200F units are in desert.
In total there are only 10 converted 200F (4 in service + 6 in desert) and no one is crazy to make a fresh convertions. So it is a total bull***t that some one is going to operate 9 200Fs.

Guess what is the relation between Lanta and Caribjet? ;) I know they purchased remaining units, however it is questionable if all of them will be flying, but at least 1 or 2 - for sure.

I heard that a Caribjet L1011F was parked in (OST) Ostend.
Also another Caribjet L1011F in (MSE) that one was tail number V2-LFQ which I think is Antiqua
I'm sure "The Guvnor" would know all about it!
