Air France Airbus A330-203 F-GZCL in the Barcode 2009 livery by Hogan. F-GZCL flew for Air France from 2003 to 2024. Around 2021, this aircraft received the updated Air France livery and was christened Chenonceaux. NG made a model of F-GZCL with the new livery. Unfortunately for F-GZCL, it was damaged on the 31st of May 2024, it was damaged in N'Djamena when strong winds pushed the aircraft into a high loader vehicle. F-GZCL was later flown back to France, being sent to Tarbes Lourdes on the 28th of September 2024, where it has been retired and stored ever since. Given that F-GZCL has been damaged and that I can't find any information whether it has been repaired or not, it's fate remains uncertain as of now but I don't think F-GZCL will ever take to the skies again. Instead, I believe that it will be broken up and used as a source of spare parts to maintain the active A330 fleet.
