Well least its good to see the big airlines operating the 800 and it is a GE problem , 747s still Rule .

Ian, Ian... loyal to the last
Airlines carting passengers are buying the A380.
The 747-8 is carting boxes, with the exception of Lufthansa and Korean for some mysterious reason.

Its rule is long over, and I suspect is being given away as a rich man's toy: there no less than 9 "VIP" planes!

I have learned the ARBUST are in the NZ fleet are finding wing crack problems - rusting/corrosion - .... ARBUST dose not save the fuel levels compared to the Boeing so another PORKY/LIES to sell the aircraft, and all due to a Typical Govt sellout , .. add the , forgot the bean-counters and they equal the above problem ... A Nation build on Boeing , I'm still going !

I'd be pleased and more than happy an honor if you did that , don't forget my for the quick personal transport system - thinking restart the B-52 production line - just so handy to drop people off where you need them - the ARBUST factory staff support system!
