Autothrottle,. .. .The AOC process is ongoing, and on track. The final element of the issue of an AOC will be the completion of a proving flight, on our first aircraft. This is due to take place in Late March.. .. .We don't need route licences, per se, but we have applied for our worldwide charter licence.. .. .First group of pilots and cabin crew are under training. We have secured our first aircraft, and expect to have all four aircraft secured by the end of this week.. .. .Thanks for your interest. .. .H

Hamrah,. .. .What is the proposed fleet breakdown? How many 737-700s and 300s expected? . .. .Also, will the NG aircraft have "analog-like" EFIS ala Southwest Airlines for commonality purposes or 777 style EFIS?. .. .Best of luck to everyone involved!
