Ok any more news on Arik? Apparently they purchased the Nigerian Airways HQ, hangar, training school, and aircraft (1 X DC-10, 3 X A310, 4 X 737-200) for N1.7bilion (aprox $12 mil). they are working together with JAT to form a sort of Ethiopain Airlines type maintainance facility. they are going to overhaul all the aircraft, i've noticed the -10 was given a bath recently. The Airways headquaters right now is undergong some serious renovation.
