Waren,
I guess a related question is whether the aircraft operating from Singapore up to southern Europe will be VH- or 9V- registered.
Buchanan's comment:
"Southern Europe offered an attractive market and no one else was really serving that market."
What, so those Emirates, Singapore, Cathay, Malaysian, Korean, Thai, Qatar, Air China, China Air, etc. tails one sees daily at various southern European airfields such as Rome, Madrid, Athens, etc. are not actually there?!
