From my sources it sounds like you are correct. This doesnt surprise anyone Im sure, as when Nash was still around he did a similar deal with Airbus for the A319. Definately the most unsuitable aircraft for its purpose, there were many better choices.
Does MK really think their purchase will make a dent in A or B financial report, even if they restructured the whole fleet. It would still be a proverbial drop in the ocean compare to some other companies.
I understand A and B were coming and going with meetings and other things. We all know why Boeing wants MK to swing their way and its nothing to do with purchasing some B777.
From the latest meetings it would appear that the manufacturers are not the only ones giving up on MK. Im told that the pilots have been strung along a little too far and most of them are aware that the end is near. Hope that MK have done their calculations right and wont need to ground flights.
Its a sad thing when a company doesnt know how to treat its employees.
