CargoRat2,. .. .Am interested to know why a uk cargo airline very rarely succeeds on the british register with a uk aoc. Would be nice for someone to pick up any pieces here, that is if there are any. Am sure there is plenty of ACMI work around for 2 x 742's. What do you reckon <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> . .. .cheers. .lindburgh

Lindburgh. .. .I think you will find that any ACMI operator will suffer unless they are a US registered company. I'm sure you know that no wet leasing is allowed into, out of and inside the U.S. unless the operator is a U.S. registered company.. .. .How can you exclude the world's biggest market, the US. Until now, this is why Atlas were so successful....however, even they are suffering at present....see other thread!. .. .One of the problems with the Bermuda II agreement I'm afraid, amongst other things. . .. .U.S. Protectionism <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="mad.gif" />

EM - but what if that were all to change ?????. .Bermuda 2 will be renegotiated soon....... .And I wouldn't say that wz a non US ACMI operation u r excluding yr biggest mkt! Just look at who Atlas/Polar operate for, and from where and to!! . .I got into this business in a big way many years ago with the explicit mandate that no us registered airframes could be considered. That was for a 2 x 747 contract for 48 months!!!. .. .And of course as it is clear from the Atlas thread things are not too certain there at all.. .. .Still leaves an awful lot of freight to be hauled.. .Needs be where needs must and all that.. .. .cheers. .lindburgh
