According to Airliners World current issues :
"North Korean flag Carrier Air Koryo will introduce a Tu-204-300 intoits fleet before the end of the year, according to a source in Communist republic. Although teh order's existence has never previously been officially confirmed, reports of Air Koryo acquiring new equipment from Russia has been the subject of rumour for the past two years.
The source, speaking to Airliners World on condition of anonymiti, revealed that a firmorder for a single Tu-204-300 was signed in April 2006. This aircraft is in final stage of assembly and the Aviastar manufacturing complex in Ulyanovsk recently took delivery of two Perm PS-90A engines to install on the jet. After grounf and air tests, the aircraft should be ready before the end of this year, when Air Koryo is expected to order a second example".
So, if the aircraft is in final stage of assembly as written, could be in Air Koryo colors already! Hope one of our Russian friend will make a photo soon!
