After the long but fruitful wait for the release of Fenix v2 Block 2, I have recreated one of the first A320s to have IAE v2500 engines - YU-AOB (delivered as 5B-DAT with MSN 028), a highly regarded airframe within the Fenix Simulations Discord, as done before albeit for v1.
This livery has been created with high-resolution handmade stencils and decals, including a newer, impromptu attempt at the old IAE logo; although references of the original branding and text are sparse and reference images of the aircraft are inadequate and low quality at best (all of them being taken in 1990), existing sources and the confines of the internet have been researched to create a visually convincing paint of the short-lived livery worn by YU-AOB, and the airframe it likely had.
Adria Airways (ADR/JP, formerly Inex-Adria Aviopromet) was the flag carrier of Slovenia and of Yugoslavia before its dissolution, and is believed to have received the first passenger A320 to be powered with IAE v2500s, registered YU-AOA with MSN 42 (not this one).

This aircraft eventually was scrapped in 2006, owned by AeroTurbine as N820AT. It was originally delivered in May 1989 to Cyprus Airways and was leased to Adria Airways between April and December 1990 before being returned, this short 8-month period being when all images of the registration were taken, hence the lack of references.
