Like to know if there are any plans along those lines myself.Travelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13193693135655314432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553457216067299334.post-45716188408634282412016-02-03T09:12:42.479-05:002016-02-03T09:12:42.479-05:00Abu Dhabi Amiri has B788 LN141 A6-PFC leased throu...Abu Dhabi Amiri has B788 LN141 A6-PFC leased through AerCap, but it's frame without VIP interior. Maybe they wanted B787-9 with full VIP furnishing, but couldn't get earlier slot?<br /><br />5-7 years long lease deal wouldn't be something extraordinary, LN141 is frame at full specification so finding new customer and interior refurb won't be a problem for AerCap.Piotrek_https://www.blogger.com/profile/18336277803027359550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553457216067299334.post-57154349742009050762016-02-02T02:33:02.545-05:002016-02-02T02:33:02.545-05:00As to the deferred production cost, the part no on...As to the deferred production cost, the part no one knows outside of Boeing is just how low they went on the sales PRICE side to sign orders. We all know launch customers receive crazy low purchase prices, yet no one knows to what extent Boeing, for the sake of sales and market share, discounted the -9's and -10's. We can only hope the latter -9's and all the -10's, other than the launch customers, paid prices that were more in line with the planes' value.<br />So as to the DPC, we will simply have to review their quarterly reports to see what the number does. 1coolguy1https://www.blogger.com/profile/18386118652263417781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553457216067299334.post-58840078838327561592016-02-01T22:46:12.478-05:002016-02-01T22:46:12.478-05:00Japan Airlines will be registrated as follows:

Most of Boeing's past models have had higher gross weight, longer range models within a few years, usually before freighter versions appeared. The -8 would seem ripe for a gross weight upgrade to match the -9, which would take it into ULR territory. An HGW upgrade would also benefit the -10. Even the -9 would benefit - it would make routes like SIN-SFO possible without weight restrictions. <br /><br />It's been over 4 years since the first deliveries, so even though they still have a large backlog to work down, one would think they have to be planning further enhancements soon as it will take several years to implement them.NickSJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17463537216867823890noreply@blogger.com
