OBP,

3 777's are supposed to arrive next month, so we have not got long to go. We are not told anything, so we have to just wait and see what happens.

Who'll be doing the maintenance? Back in 2007 SIAEC were awarded the contract for Base Maintenance on the aborted B777s. Brunei DCA declined to approve RBA for in-house B777 maintenance due to lack of base facilities and a shortage of experienced staff.

It appears we will have to wait another couple of months to see 777's in brunei.

Nothing!!!!!! nada!!!!! zip!!!!!!
Just typical of RBA after a monumental stuff up, (jetairway deal gone bad) All goes underground to save face, I believe they cant even tell the troops, because they dont know??? What a Stuff up!!!
Rumour has it that if RBA cant produce planes soon,,,, that all will go south, 767's rumoured to go back to lessor by end of year. No plane's????
What does that tell you???
