Hi, What is the story regarding UM these days? Are all their Boeings still in service and where are their longhaul destinations? Thanks

According to Air Fleets, jet fleet of 2x 762s and 3x 732s are active (although not sure the latter is correct). It also has 2 or 3 Chinese-made & donated turboprops.
Long haul destinations are London Gatwick, Dubai via Entebbe, Singapore, Beijing.

I asked the question because I'd heard that one 767 was grounded for spares as was a 737, is this the case?

I am surprised they are not all used for scrap - can't be any money to run them!

No problem there. Each time Mad Bob runs short the SA taxpayer in the form of Thabo comes up with the goods to bail him out.:*
