Sorry to temporarily take the direction of this thread off the 380, but does anyone know when the first 744 will be painted in the new livery? Nice to see G-VRED now flying – looks mighty fine!
It’s interesting news about the 380 though. What does this mean for their expansion plans? Will they retain/extend operations of the 343’s and 744’s to cover the 4 year delay? Or could VS lease some more a/c as an interim measure?
If no new/leased aircraft are introduced, am I right in saying this will probably halt the EGKK expansion? As I thought the 744 fleet was destined for EGKK ops as the 380 came to EGLL.
Thanks,
