Avient MD11F Z-BVT

Does anybody have "reliable" info regarding Avient s MD11F ?

... it seems to be parked since 1 month (today) in ZRH in front
of SR Technics hangar.

Is SR Technics still doing MD11 maintenance or do they still
hold technicians with valid MD11 license ? ...after a long time
now with A330 and A340 maintenance

She was planned to have scheduled maintenance at KLM but due to the fact there was a risk she would impounded she never arrived. SR tech still has a license for the 11 so maybe Avient did send her to ZRH for scheduled maint.

Just to clarify. It is said that MD11 is parked "in front" of the hangar,
NOT "inside" since 1 Month.

I don't believe such a long time would have gone ignored by staff.

But the last 3 months for sure!
