Re: Airbus Working With Emirates on New Order for Flagship A380

Applying logic. I guess the final answer might be a highly complicated (secret) legal agreement with plenty of get out clauses,but overlaying a promise to NEO ( at the very least) if the other orders/numbers are fourth coming at the time.(well that's my guess anyway)! After reading your thoughts, I...

Re: Help appreciated: Identification of Boeing-airliner

Forgive me if I am stating the obvious, but this is a Boeing BBJ, a biz-jet, not a commercial airliner. So I do not believe it is a pre-cursor to regular flights. If it is any help, I can add the movements for the last seven days. 09 Nov STN - LBG - STN (07:11 - 08:04 & 11:20 - 12:10) 14 Nov ST...

Re: A300/A310 v 767

Can it be a matter of original design? The A300 was built as an air bus, meaning to carry lots of passengers on trunk routes, like Paris-London. The 767 started with the -200s, which was smaller than all the previous wide-bodies, and perhaps conceived from the beginning to a long-range aircraft, re...

Re: Bombardier announces LoI for 31 (+30 Options) CSeries from an unnamed European Customer

How about Volotea?
They seem to have 28 aircraft. All in a similar size as the CS100.

Airbus A319-100 9, Boeing 717-200 17, Boeing 737-500 2 (leased from Air X Charter). (c) Wikipedia

Are these widebody routes definitely staying for the whole winter schedule? I've been looking in February (and even next month) on the FRA-TXL and MUC-TXL routes and I only see narrowbodies. As I mentioned above - Lufthansa said, they will decide on a daily basis. Those flights are additional lift....

If and when Brandenburg ever opens, will DY seek to develop that airfield as a new hub or focus city? It looks as though Eurowings will focus on Cologne. Eurowings wants to move from Cologne to Düsseldorf (after Air Berlins longhaul-hub in DUS is closed now). Maybe Cologne is "open" as we...

Interesting input keesje - what do the experts think: What technical advancements of the CS-series, like the feedback-sidesticks (?), would be worth taking over to a new A32X-series (or A36X) in the upper segment of the future Airbus narrowbody-lineup?
