That is the last of the 23 serial numbers allocated (ZM300 to ZM322). So far I have only 22 of these a/c as having appeared (18) or still appearing (4) in the UK civil a/c register - construction numbers: 11099, 11100, 11111, 11112, 11113, 11117, 11118, 11122, 11123, 11127, 11128, 11129, 11130, 11131, 11132, 11137, 11138, 11142, 11143, 11144, 11145 and 11147. I guess that the 23rd has yet to arrive in the UK.
