Without any written or verbal evidence to support, I think the title "CX orders A380" is just a rumor at the very most. I personally spoke with CX CEO a couple of months ago on the subject and it seems A380 is something very very very distant for CX...

it would be much appreciated that more information about the "insider" who released this piece of explosive information. Even indication whether it is a verbal or written one can help to determine the validity...

In another occassion being questioned by reporters recently, Tony Tyler suggested that supply of airframes for the CX/CA cargo JV was "tricky". However, my 2 cents would be rather on, in view of the global seller's market of aircrew, and given the current sour working relationship between ...

it is rumured from another forum (Pprune) that Qasis secured another 4 ex. SQ B744 recently.... no news on 777 heard...

i think Qatar is talking about the 30 787 being listed as Undentified at Boeing's site for quite some time already....

Below quoted from Air Transport World online news today: Qatar Airways confirmed this week that it is preparing to announce a 787 order. After refusing to do so last week (ATWOnline, July 23), CEO Akbar Al Baker said in Washington Monday, "very soon, we will be announcing a huge order for Dream...

Boeing announced below statement on her website today. Is this oder a new one?? http://www.boeing.com/news/releases/2007/q3/070712b_nr.html SEATTLE, July 12, 2007 -- The Boeing Company [NYSE: BA] is pleased that LAN Airlines, South America's largest airline, has announced its intent to acquire 26 Bo...

It seems the run of 787 orders continues... on top of the 677 firm orders announced till yesterday, following are heard from various channels: 1.) Virgin Atlantic: 8 (I think bits44 reported here) 2.) Royal Brunei: 4 3.) Singapore: 20 4.) Qatar: 30 With potential mega orders from DL/AA/EK...., it se...

hi guys, referring to last posting by tolipanebas and bits44, it seems to me that there is nothing wrong with bits44 because he is so nice/neutural by providing e-links, thus save us lots of time, to read some interesting news in vaiation wolrd, at least on this particular topic. I didn't see bits44...

The most unfortunately thing for industry observers/followeres is exactly waht you stated in last posting: "if" . And that is a very very big "IF"...... Nobody is certain/confident about AB anymore and its ability to deliver while iAB is right at the meddle/saga of A380/A350/Powe...

Cannot agree more with bits44 last posting. Once a redundant employee of the avaiation industry a while ago, I just want both major manufactures to be successful and provide plenty of job opportunity. Unfortunately, it seems a long and painful struggle, especially for salaried employees of AB and co...

it seems CX plans to retire/return their three A346 in operation to the lessor early 2008 after introduction of those new B773ER from October 2007. But.... if the offer from Airbus is attractive enough, who knows?? Following quoted from another aircrew forum yesterday: "The rumour of CX picking...

Re subject of ten A346E potentially heading towards CX, my guess that this is simply rumour/dream/personal agenda etc etc made up by people who bet on CX's "predatory purchasing" track record (I don't want to repeat CX business behaviorial history here), i.e. after EK announced to cancel s...

To further fuel this topic, following rumor has been circulated amongst HK air crew community for quite some time already. Anyway, a rumour remains rumour, no official words.. http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?t=260763 Rumour has it CX bought 10 A340-600 E’s (Enhanced). Better than the 3 o...

All Dragonair Europe cargo flight traffic rights have been transfered to Cathay Pacific. See message details below from Kenny Tang/KA CEO.

It seems A380F is on a real thin line..

Unfortunately, in our not-too-perfect world, airlines (and their mangers) are short-sighted, cash-hungry, commercial and not-too-charitable organizations... downturn and/or difficulities of Airbus is NOT of their grave concern!!!

it's believed that 10 out these 17 orders are B747-8 freighter for Emirates that the LOI was signed a while ago..
