Just spreading the word from Mr. Clarks's OneEleven site -
Last 1-11-operator kyrgyz TrastAero have relaunched their website at
http://trastaero.com/
This clearly reveals that they have three aircraft still in service, one of them being an ex-BA 510ED saved from Nigeria.

Nice!
That flightdeck shot clearly shows the panel started life as a 510 even though they've binned most of the Smiths instruments in favour of the more common Collins. Good stuff and a good find

It seems they are flyimg two.......the 510ED is stored ex G-AVMM
That could be the 510 in the white as it has no forward steps either and as you say Dave the panel looks like it

The white aircraft is the 510ED: note the antenna over the front door which would not be present on the other two (ex-TAROM) aircraft. The photo of the tailcone seems to show that the No. 1 engine cowling is either missing or removed so perhaps it's not in service as yet, or is just stored as Garry suggests. The picture is also a good illustration of the hush-kit installation. Zany colour scheme on the other aircraft: EX-086 also saw service with Ryanair once upon a time.
