    when talking to a friend a month or so ago, he claims that restoration is already ongoing and they are planning to pull at least 2 of them back into ops by the end of the year. would appreciate anyone else who have better sources to shed some light.

     

    No wonder currently 2 of 4 Transmile MD11 "gone" from it usual park...As 1 of it I can spot from far located inside Transmile hangar near to T2...

     

    Hope this time that news may come true by end of this year...

    The MH Rumour Department just confirmed that the signing ceremony is now postponed indefinitely. No new date is given to us.

     

    Maybe they want to do it at Farnborough after all.

     

    No wonder I don't see any signing ceremony news from business section of local newspaper on Friday...

     

    I question in my mind, pardon me if it not-make-sense question...

     

    who is the owner of these engines?it is belong to MAS or PMB?

    Let hear what another side of coin said....

     

    MAS senior general manager network and revenue management Amin Khan responded to Azran’s allegations via e-mail, saying “it is somewhat intriguing that AAX has been making these statements in Malaysia, and outside the country.

     

    “We believe that both airlines can compete and collaborate, and we believe that is what the Government wants us to do when they had set out the vision of wanting to build two strong national champions.’’

     

    Azran claims that the airline has managed to bring in a lot more tourists despite flying to peripheral routes.

     

    “We have been told a number of nonsensical things like we are flying transit traffic and not bringing in the tourists.

     

    “Why don’t they measure everything, all the data is on the Tourism Malaysia website.

     

    “Just to cite an example, had we not flown to Australia in 2009, would the tourist arrivals from Australia surged by 25% since the incumbent did not add capacity during that period?’’

     

    “The sad part is that our policy makers are not given a full set of facts to make good policy decisions and that is the kind of baseless arguments that have been levelled against us.

     

    “We welcome an opportunity to address the issues instead of being held back and not being able to present our case fully,’’ he said.

     

    Khan has pointed out that “AAX can fly to many routes that are currently not served.

     

    For example, there are no direct services from KL to Manchester, Zurich, Madrid, Athens, Oslo, Vienna, Amman, Cairo, Pusan, Fukuoka, Nagoya, Nice and Oakland.”

     

    “This in itself will give customers better choices.

     

    “We believe that AAX has requested and received approvals for many of these routes but they have not offered these services,’’ he added.

     

    Khan said “we are currently competing on a number of routes, and at the same time, we also continue to fly on routes where we are not necessarily making money to provide customers with choices, and to attract tourists.’’

     

    Not a good example of destinations by the way, because some of the destinations stated there were proven no no in business perspective...

     

    Emm why not Pusan instead Seoul??emmm
