The Irish-registered aircraft operated for Cubana on routes between Cuba and Canada, carrying the joint \"TransAer Cubana\" branding that marks wet-lease arrangements where the operating carrier's crew and aircraft serve under another airline's IATA designator. EI-TLJ returned from the Cubana lease on March 29, 2001, subsequently transferring to Indian Airlines as VT-EVP.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLivery \u0026amp; Visual Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe livery is a joint scheme combining TransAer and Cubana identity. White fuselage base with a dark navy blue cheatline below the window row that sweeps toward the tail. The vertical stabilizer displays diagonal stripes of dark blue, white, and red angled upward from front-bottom to rear-top. Engine nacelles carry the same tricolor stripe pattern on the fan cowlings. \"TransAer\" appears in stylized light-blue text on the forward fuselage, with \"CUBANA\" lettered below in bold sans-serif. Registration EI-TLJ is aft with a small Irish tricolor flag beneath it. Sharklets are fitted with blue and red emblem on the outer face. Two under-wing engines with standard circular exhaust nozzles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eModel Craft \u0026amp; Collectability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhoenix PH11939 documents a historically specific wet-lease operation that lasted under three years — a rare joint-livery subject combining Irish and Cuban aviation history. The EI prefix combined with the Cubana name makes this one of the more unusual A320 livery combinations in the diecast market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScale\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1:400\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRegistration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEI-TLJ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAircraft Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAirbus A320-231\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMSN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e257\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEngines\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIAE V2500-A1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength (model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14.75 cm \/ 5.75 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWingspan (model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15.08 cm \/ 5.88 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiecast Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel Item #\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePH11939\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo ensure you receive a flawless model, we perform a mandatory physical inspection on every item before shipment.
