Are my eyes deceiving me? Judging by this picture it would appear that Open Skies have fitted huge new windows during the re-fit? Oh, the days of the Viscount have just come flooding back.....:D

I think it's called an 'artist's impression'.

The web site is soooo pretentious and unintentionally hilarious. "THIS IS NOT A PLANE" Well no point in anyone booking then............

Anyone know if BA will be handling them at JFK? Tension if they do?

Also, anyone know where G-BPEK is until 19-June and the launch?

Well it did some crew training and is now back in the BA Hangar at LHR having an oleo replaced???. Also fitting the seats and getting them certified.

Thanks, I'm quite keen to point a Nikon in it's general direction as I'm not really a believer that they will be flying nine by the end of next year.......

It means the 787s will be delivered to OpenSkies...


(An oleo is the part of the landing gear that absorbs the impact of the landing)

Nasty American biscuit thing, supposedly eaten with milk.
