ME Paris Airshow orders
As the Paris Airshow is about to get underway next week, I was wondering if anyone would care to guess what the new aircraft orders would be for EY and EK?
EY has confirmed it would announce an order, but just wondering, what type and how many are we in for?

EK in for 45 HORSA Gliders (to be towed behind the A380s since the latter won't have enough hold space for the luggage of all the people it'll carry) and 60 UAV (unmanned airborne vehicles - we cannot find enough pilots to fly the line!)

Qatar had already ordered 2 of the A380 superjumbo aircraft with options for another two.
Qatar will be the first airline to get the revamped A350 in 2013, Airbus President Louis Gallois told a news conference.
The order includes 20 A350-800s, 40 A350-900s and 20 A350-1000s.
