I'm glad to hear some big iron is comming - it should help diversify ACE considerably, but I do have some question as to wether they will be ready in time to start. I would hate to see them get into trouble before they even started.
I know the 747 combies are being returned to the leasers at the end of Sept. I guess ACE needs another month to get ready - yet I (and a few others) haven't heard of any applications made by ACE yet for this service. I also wonder how they plan to have the A/C certified in time? They would have had to start on that a while ago.
Can anyone who works for ACE shed some light on how things are going with this project?
