Chartered is also referred to whilst payments are ongoing relevant to the purchase to whatever financial orginisation the aggreement is with.

could be leased, lease purchase, hire purchase or ownership used for bond security against loans the company has taken out.

Ryanair Trivia Question

With Ryanair taking delivery of their 7th B738-8AS EI-DWE 36074 / 2391 this month at Dublin today, is this the highest number of new build a/c of any type ever to be delivered to an individual airline in a month?

As far as I can tell B767 Q4/07-Q1/08 A330 Q2-Q3/08 After that its a bit unclear. I think XL France are in the pot somewhere.
Be lucky

Cool Qatar to replace 346 with 773ER.

http://www.flightglobal.com/articles...77-300ers.html
.
They have only had the 346 about 1 or 2 years ???

With the superior economics, the 773ER seems to be sending A346 off the market. At least sales appear to have stagnated.

The oldest is barely 15 months old, two arrived in September last year, one at the end of November and the fourth last march.

They are all more capable A340-600Xs too, for which Qatar was actually the launch customer.

Going back to 2004/2005 and looking over various bits of PR when the aircraft was entering it's final assembly and early flight test, it's increased range, now higher than the 77W, it's increased MTOW, also now higher than the 77W, and its almost identical payload capability to the 77W, was pinned as being enough to turn the tide of orders that the standard aircraft was losing, or at least keep the current customers coming back for more.

My guess is that the crews will be tuned into training for the A380.

Monarch Says "Farewell" to its Oldest Aircraft

Only ten more weeks of flying, and then G-MONB is off to some desert location to be parted out. She was the aircraft that heralded the "new" era for the Charter Market back in '82/'83, when the 757 first arrived in Europe in the (then new) Monarch colours.

G-MONB looked incredible in the new scheme of the time (attached image) and, I for one, still think that livery is far better than the current wavy-gravy one!

I am sure many of us will wish November Bravo a fond farewell when the time comes to leave the fleet. She has served Monarch well and assisted to pioneer longer routes that were unthinkable in the stable of 737's that most operators had at the time. The 757, for me, is the sleekest and most beautiful aircraft ever built, and -NB's twin cheatlines made it look even more elegant.

I recall that on its delivery flight, it landed at LGW at 07.57.

Just wondering how many hours that acft must have accumulated over its career; given its age (24 years) and charter utilisation (4k+ hrs per annum), it can't be far short of 100k, if not over it?

I should have paid more attention when I filled the tech log in, but as of this weekend it was around 86k (I think). High mileage but one carefull owner.

( First I have heard about it leaving in 10 weeks time ! )

1st UK etops a/c to boot. Modified by Boeing at the time to comply with the proposed requirements at the time. A pioneer you could say.
