    I know also that Hawaiian hav 2 or 3, Ansett have 2 or 3 . Also I think TWA (or some airline like that) have most of their defunct 767 fleet at Mojave.

    The thing is though, many 767’s may be sitting in the desert but would they still be airworthy after sitting in a desert for 2-3 years? The paint may strip off in the heat anyway.

    they would do. The Midle East (particularly Dubai) is moving up in the world and very quickly at that. EK spent (apparently) around $120,000 on every single first class seat/cabin on their planes.

    If Qatar only order 50 the EK will then order 70 so I think the order will be more amazing for EK seeing that they have spent millions/billions on 45 A380’s, 12 A340’s and a load of 777-300ER’s.

    true. Good point. However:

    ” A further 4 aircraft may also be repossessed in the near future if United cannot renegotiate the terms of these aircraft aswell “

    This quote suggests that United aren’t keeping up as it seems to pointing the finger a lot at United. I know United are paying and the planes are at the end of their lease but what I’m saying is that United must be really gutted to have to drop routes to compensate for not being able to source extra planes.
    I know a lot of people will see the word repossessed and immediatelt think that the airline haven’t been keeping up.

    that really surprised me as well..this qatar order should take the dreamliner above 300 which is an awsome achevement for boeing..a big order for the a350 aswell..IS THE A350 GUARANTEED NOW!! OR CAN THE GOVTS. CONCERNED STILL DENY THE 1/3 DEVELOPMENTAL LOAN??

    The A350 should be definate as it is going to upset a few airlines.

    I think it is the right term:

    UAL have of planes which they’ve leased, so meaning they are in the possession of UAL. Now all it means is that the leasing firm want the planes back in their possession,-repossessed.

    I get frustrated aswell. Our household gets about 10 calls a day from India, Pakistan…It winds me up.
    However it also frustrates me when we get companies ringing up if we’d like quotes for new conservatories or kitchens when we’ve just had a new conservatory and kitchen 😡 😡

    Good news for all four parties there. I’m surprised with how many planes Qatar are ordering.

    not bad.

    I’ve got one and it ain’t the best one:

    An elderly bloke goes into the Terminal at Manchester and askes the lady:
    “Which airline flies to Vienna?”
    “Lauda” she said-to which the elderly man replied:
    “WHICH AIRLINE FLIES TO VIENNA ??”

    (I know its not good but I’ve always been crap at jokes.
