The plan is a third 747 and this time a 744...
I don't think a fourth or fifth aircraft is likely so for now I believe you can expect to see a single 744 flying for Cargo b.
Anybody know under which registration? Where it's coming from?
Good luck to them

I am in a shortlist of candidates for their third aircraft but it does not look so good right now . Does anyone know if they are aiming for two or three 400 aircrafts?

Cargo Bru
they struggled the first year, they will stumble thru the future as well like most of the other small cargo operators that try to survive with only 1 or 2 machines.
I share the pain of all f/e's that'll loose their jobs as well as all other pilots who have been fired (I hear they only fire foreigners smells fishy!).

Confirmation today from an insider that 742 is being phased out and will slowly be replaced by 744F.
The first one is expected in a month or so...
Expensive machines though!

Does any one know if this really is an ERF or a conversion?
Would like to know if it is indeed an ERF how they have managed to get a slot on the production line at such short notice.
I know of no carriers that have not taken up the delivery of a brand new 747-400ERF..does any one else..?
My guess either a BCF or they have leased it from another carrier.
They were very lucky to retain their investor!!

2 400F and 1 SF on the market and available now from China Airlines unless Cargo B done a deal with their neighbor CV because their 2 400Fs have been removed from the advertised sale sheet. But again both MK and Cargoitalia are queuing to purchase/lease as well maybe these guys are in the running to

Latest update...
Cargo B has struck a deal with NAS, and is leasing two -400F from ANA.
Not sure about Cargoitalia or MK getting 400s, but how long can other carriers continue to operate the classics

Busy day
Wow - that is a busy day, sold to Asiana and took on a 744F, then did a deal with Cargolux for 2 744F, then did a deal with NAS(?) taking 2 x 744F from ANA (who don't own any). Come on chaps, I know this is a rumour forum but get a grip.
