Lease (short term) a few 777 at negotiated preferential rates in the interim was my response to the winging by India previously.
From an airline willing to lease their 777s to AIC, it would be most plausible until the Dreamliners are delivered.
Santa’s sleigh is too full to cope with a 787 so Delhi’s Delayliner it may be.:D
AIC’s Delayliner won’t fulfill its role as an aircraft of dreams real soon for Indian civil aviation…
