A320 Neo

Finally, KA crew will get to experience a HUD in the cockpit. Will totally help in flying to all those "non-autoland" ports they operate into where "mist" is a big problem.....

What HUD ? The NEO does not have one.

There is no order either, all that has been signed is a non binding MOU.

Talk about taking the pi$$ with the DPA, hook line and sinker.

Neo order "will" have HUD's included - 100% guaranteed. It's a requirement by the masters to the North.. HK is independent yes but they pull all the strings.. period.

By the time the NEOs arrive those CX FO who have just upgraded will be going through command courses.

The NEO will be years away. Nice wind up.
Yes, that's right. That's precisely how it works. Just like a fish and chip shop. Walk in, place an order and move to the back of the line. Eejit.

No wonder we get caned by management. So many buffoons that fail to grasp the most simple of our industry's standard practices.
