The order includes -600's & -300's. Can't agree on the overtemps on every takeoff, but old engines will get hot. Joburg on some days looks like a 340 reunion; Virgin, Sabena, Austrian, Turkish, Cathay, Olympic, Mauritius, Air France, Iberia, TAP have all operated at various times through JNB. Can't be that bad.
SAA's -300's are also the latest version with the latest version of the CFM56, post the C4. That'll no doubt help the performance.
Still interested in the late deliveries & the Lufthansa connection.
