Freight aircraft economics
I posted this question a while back on a different PP forum, and the answers were not that compelling.
If BA etc are selling off their 757s, and they are being picked up by DHLs etc that use their aircraft pretty intensively, what are the economics in play? How come it is no longer economic for use as a passenger aircraft, but it is worth investing in a conversion for freight use. I would have thought that a DHL uses its aircraft just as intensively as BA.
Thanks
