    Older rudders were balanced after painting, thats why you always see them painted when the rest of the aircraft may not be.

    Rare is a subjective word. If you're looking for something that doesn't come in much;
    13:50 on Thursday (maybe Friday) you get a Saab 2000
    Not sure when, but sometimes Luxair send ERJ 145s instead of the usual Q400. Check their timetable or check FR24.
    Air France Cargo send a 777-200 once a week from Chicago. No idea when it arrives, but it departs Saturday at around midday.
