Would the buyers of these now ancient early lot aircraft been warned that they’re taking delivery of something that the manufacturers will be ensuring is second class only a few years later , and if so , would they have been prepared to wait for later models?
Sorry if it was there & I missed it , but what’s the upgrade cost per aircraft?
How many aircraft in the UK fleet are hit by this & what will we do with them?
Thanks...
