50/50 Deal. I`d say the Germans have done their homework , after all , LH Cargo was once an owner of DHL Worldwide along with Japan Airlines. It looks as if their accountants and financial advisers can see where profits can be made with the synergies of the combined operations, and shareholder value increased , with Germany still the # 1 exporting country in the world , for now at least. What remains to be seen are the details... 767F`s , 777F`s , #`s , routes , availability of airplanes , maybe older BA 777`s for conversion , what about EAT , DHL Air ? DPWN sure want to put on a big splash on opening day in Leipzig , and rightfully so....I hope it works out and good luck to all involved.
