Great news for the poor guys and girls getting made redundant in HLA, seems a right character to work for hopefully the ones getting there notice will find work at a better company and not some dodgy abdab <img src="mad.gif" border="0"> <img src="mad.gif" border="0">

So the rumours were correct then ?, how will they run the 3 A300F and the pax version with less crews,not good for potential customers, are the LM going as well
good luck to you all <img src="frown.gif" border="0"> |
Guess they are for the TNT contract. Wasn't AirRep doing that? Well they are going to have to keep at least 51% of fleet on G-reg or the CAA will not allow it. Even if that means parking the A300s up? anyone at Happy got the gen then.

It seems to me that they should keep not 51% but 75% in G-reg and only 25% could be wet-leased foreign registred aircraft.. .Probably aircraft are for TNT. Currently TNT operating one Tu204, Russian registered (with russian engines, but HLA will take R-R powered), it flies under russian operator callsign.

Any one got any details on these 204's on how they are getting on with them, loads etc, are they as good as any other similar type.

fergineer,. .TU-204-120C is RR powered version, same engines as on B757. Capacity and pallet positions are similar or slightly less than B757-200F

Thanks for that Cago one, was just interested how they perform against the things like the A300 and if they are likely to take over that sort of aircraft in the fr8 world and how would they be against larger aircraft. Just curious as if they start taking out all the FE aircraft thats me looking for needles.. .Cheers
