Scroggs, just regurgitating part of the discussion I had a few weeks ago on the way back from BGI. Maybe I misunderstood but I got the impression that the original plan was to double in size (or was it capacity) by 2010 and that the oil price increase, which was not forseen in 2002, had led to a small brake application. Whether this includes the delay to the 380 I'm not sure, the rest of the 340 order seems to be progressing on schedule. Being a 744 bod I'm not really well up on the commings and goings on the bus so I reckon you know a lot more! I have also had a spot of leave during which the entire scenario will have changed at least twice.

I wonder if the expansion includes our budding space program?
