So, the day has finally arrived.
Last flights out of KLIA today? Also marks the last flights to AMS and CDG tonight.
-
Yes, most 772 pilots will not be around very soon.
Best wishes and best of luck to you guys! Hope you guys keep on flying.
I am guessing there will be no pilots for Canton but MAB does not want to make an announcement yet.

MAB flights 772 to AMS and CDG over Iran today.
-
The pilot did well.
The A333 doesn't have the range of the 772.
Continuing with a westward/southward heading (with headwind) would have stretched the A333's legs.

This was on Leeham news
Boeing stock sell-off on 777-200ER deal over-blown

Delta CEO says used 772 going for US7.7mil.
Mentioned MAS' disposals as well as SQ, EK etc.

Another A380 charter to Narita Japan this morning. Good business I hope.
9M-MNF from Narita 10am....with the Barcelona FC team.
Bonus for the crew.
-
The 772ER was designed for the long range mission.
The A333 can't fly the same distance.
The 772ER did a fantastic job for MAS. Like all things, age catches up.
Gets costly to keep this old bird flying.
Just imagine trying to keep your 20 year Proton Saga running.
New models are designed with better economics.
Sad that MAS will reducing their presence internationally but i guess CM knows what he is doing.
-
Maybe upgrade.
Initially i thought A380 9M-MNC was used for spare parts....but as of this week it is back to flying duties.

From the MalaysianInsider
"The owner of the three Boeing 747 planes left unclaimed at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport has come forward to say that they have been in consistent contact with Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB), The Star reported. Captain Blue Peterson, chief executive of Swift Air Cargo reportedly said the three planes were owned by the company since June 8 this year. -

9M-MRA went to Sapporo. Currently on its way back.
-
MAS will be a ticketing agent.
Hope all MAS 772 pilots find a new Boeing assignment.
They are not big fans of airbus......
-
End of the line for the 777 fleet.
Yes, there should be a farewell flight in the pipeline.
The way MAS is going, they might eventually lease the precious LHR slots to EK......
(can't do that now....image wise)
-
Products can be made/assembled anywhere.
Most importantly QA/QC standards set by the designers and original manufacturer must be adhered to.
-
How long does it take to complete this upgrade?
-
Kinda like it.
-
It is a different business case all together. Should not compare low cost with full service airlines.......in this case.
-
9M-MNC probably is a parts donor. Must be tough to keep the big birds flying.
-
Consolidating 2 flights into 1 has its pros and cons.
For people in the business world, having multiple flights per day gives better travel flexibility.
-
There aRe about 5 or 6 B772s parked in various states of disrepair.
Someone has to get them flyable is there to leave KLIA to be either stored, sold, returned to the lessor.
-
When will B772 flights to DPS end?
-
Wow 38, hopefully he will make his name as a young hotshot CEO. Congrations.
He has a huge uphill task.
-
9M-MNE Haj charter MH8014, just departed.

Any takers?
