So what exactly has been parked up? I've heard rumours of anything from one classic freighter up to a total of 14 aircraft. Can anyone shed any light?

Two B744 will be parked at Avalon soon.
Utilisation has decreased alot, heard it will be A330/340 and more 747s
Two 747's at VCV and three at MZJ, more to follow i'm sure.
AOA = DOA! But, the clowns' continue with their "action"....wonder why?

We were told last week, 2 x 744's, 2 x A340's and 2 x Classic freighters. I think there is already one classic freighter parked in China sp total 7. Anyone confirm?

I should have added the parking was from January onwards. December (as usual) thankfully looking reasonable, its first quarter 2002 which is a bit gloomy.
Times must be really hard at CX. Can't get a seat on a plane anywhere.
CX management forcasting doom and gloom. Are these the same lies that we hear from management all the time?
This is what happened to the last CX A/C parked at AVALON !

Will the ASL pilots not needed from the classic freighters and therefore transferred to the CX mainline be affected by the hiring ban by IFALPA? What is happening on the F/E front with CX Freighters are there lay offs here as well? :confused:

Look forward to CX's demise!! :D :D :D
The demise of cx will also mean the demise of my paycheck. Try a little harder to make some friends, will you, my dear penguin?
Enjoy the holidays everyone.

Oasis,
You probably wouldn't lose your paycheque. If that ever happens, CNAC will scoop up CX in no time.
BTW, I don't need friends at CX :D :D :D
