Gimbal thanks for telling me that and no i did not know that.Really infuriating when I read rubbish like this and really I don"t know where these figures came from,on the BBJ I saw the actual invoice so I can tell you the figure I quoted is as near as I can estimate due to $-Rand ex rate.By my estimates for a 74 SP to be "D" checked and reconfigured would be substantially more expensive than the quoted figure,also take into account the much higher maintenance and running cost of the 747 V BBJ the best option is undoubtedly the BBJ.
