I hope that it makes a large order. But, GF did not place a single order in the last 5 years, so any order will be considered the largest. Please correct me if Im wrong.

What GF needs now is more guidance than new shiny jets. If the fraud is not tackled, then the company will continue to loose money daily!

I agree with the last posting, Leadership, and cut out all the backdoor dealings that have been going on for years.

FADAC, do you mean the biggest deal in Bahrain, or GF, or the entire industry cos I heard a similar rumour that is being spread by someone with supposedly Airbus contacts that it will be something really really big. But myself I can't see that happening. But we shall see...............

Sounds like bulls***. Don't think we will ever get anything-at least nothing new. I will never understand it, especially from a country that gets US$30 million a DAY from oil sales!!! We should have a amazing airline but what can we do?

Hmm, 1 320, 2 330's, 3 350's, 4 777's and 5 787's. I make that total of 15 aircraft.

Whatever, I can't see it being a massive order, what's the need?

He said 320 family.

So that makes it 1 A318, 1 A319, 1 A320, 1 A321 . . . plus options on the A317, A315, plus a few preowned aircraft from Royal Jordanian. So that brings it up to over 20+ aircraft.

A-315:

I have to agree. What is the point? Placing a letter of intent for AC's does not mean they will arrive. How is GF going to fill them? The loads are getting lighter and lighter. Too many pax have had enough wasting/losing their hard earned money showing up for cancelled or excessively delayed flights only to miss their connecting flights downroute.
There are no more spin doctors left to shine the image of GF. Just stick with the GDN as our extended family for a PR division. There that was a suggestion BN. Just saved the vulture 300 K in salaries instead of have a marketing department. Just have AUH/EY fund the AC's. That makes GF feel like we have a purpose and EY have company that makes them look much better than they are. Just saved you another 80 Mil in deposits BN. Not too difficult being PCE now is it? GO GETT'em Champ!!!

I guess we will just have to be patient & wait & see. Let's just hope that it goes something like half of the rumours we have heard.
