You can bet your profit share that they're already working on prying some compensations from Boeing.

Looks like we will be getting the JAL 744Fs as apparently the CF6-80 is being added to the DDG?

All three engines! Luckily, the GE is the best and easiest to manage, so not much extra work.

Cool

The standard DDPG incorporates all 3 engines anyway, RR, GE, PW.

We look after a cf6-80 operator and their MEL/DDPG includes all 3 engine types.

I was told not in the fleet forum recently, but according to this site, it says we will.

I guess it is not set in stone until they arrive on property.
