A company source and a respected independent source, both mentioning pallet counts. So there was a cargo door and a floor. Without it, the proposal would have been rejected outright, and it was not. As for your evidence, you have presented a Wikipedia entry that doesn't mention pallets or cargo.

And then you add another completely false claim, which is that the A330F "did not yet exist and could not be offered" at the time of the EADS/Boeing contest. Source selection was in 2011. The A330F was launched in 2007, flew in 2009 and entered commercial service in 2010.

By the way, you are the one making a claim that appears to be new (that the Airbus proposal was noncompliant) so it's really up to you to prove it.

Thompson and the person who set up the deal are separate. English is not always a precise instrument, but I already explained the difference to you, and on you still bang about it.

I don't know what your game is, apart from schoolboyish trolling. And I had quite forgotten about your similar behavior from years back until you started firing insults left and right about people's "ignorance".
