come on guys
Tank2Engine, apparently it seems you have no idea about cargo business. Do you have any idea about the size of Lufthansa Cargo? they have (had) 19 MD-11's and some leased 747's as well. at the moment Aerologic only has 2 a/c and it will have 9 by 2012 (??). Considering that Aerologic will carry DHL express cargo as well, there is no way/possibility that Aerologic can handle/replace LCAG business. LCAG alone is one of the world's biggest cargo carriers and considering the whole group (LCAG + Aerologic + Jade), the group is the world's biggest. I think the vision of LCAG management is quite clear.
As for the cost, who says that Aerologic has lower costs than LCAG? I assume you only see fuel burn as the cost but let me say that the cost of MD-11's are far below than 777F's considering the capital cost of 777F.
reading your sentences, are you a lufthansa pilot???
