I’m not angry I’m just stating that contracting out the cargo ops (the goose with the golden eggs) of an operation as big as CX Cargo is nearly impossible in the current cargo business. Charter prices ex HKG are soaring again. It would probably make more sense to ground aircraft on less profitable routes and keep the 74F’s flying. And that’s what they are doing, or at least trying..
