DAS Air Cargo

Any truth in the rumours that DAS Air are looking at aquiring MD11Fs (& in the short term, additional Dc10Fs). Mainly due to some new contracts being gained in China/the Far East?

I can't see that many MD11s being left around after Fedex, Lufthansa cargo & UPS have taken their share.

MD11

about 3 years ago they were talking about buying MD11's from KLM to be converted into freighter but
I didnt hear anything about it anymore.....:cool:

Cheers, forgot about KLM having MD11s, must be coming close to them retiring them!

Any further expansion planned in the UK or is it just Gatwick at the mo? Slots must be a pain to obtain (for non-sched' flights) + pricey landing fee's, surely somewhere like Manston (or even Bournemouth?) must be cheaper? Presumably any Dc10s they aquire will be out of the desert
