flee 5 Report post Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) Is there a reason for this change in equipment. Did XAB or XAC have a serious enough problem to ground it for this flight and XXA was used as an emergency measure? Edited June 27, 2011 by flee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flee 5 Report post Posted June 28, 2011 Perhaps aircraft needs to be swapped as XAB or XAC has to go in for maintenance? D7's schedules still show 6/4 flights to STN/ORY respectively. Looking at the flight schedules the two aircraft should fly: Aircraft 1: SUN D72012 KUL ORY 0120 0900 SUN D72013 ORY KUL 1030 0510 MON D72006 KUL STN 0910 1555 MON D72007 STN KUL 1725 1325 TUE D72008 KUL STN 1500 2145 TUE D72009 STN KUL 2315 1915 THU D72012 KUL ORY 0120 0900 THU D72013 ORY KUL 1030 0510 FRI D72008 KUL STN 1500 2145 FRI D72009 STN KUL 2315 1915 Aircraft 2: SUN D72008 KUL STN 1500 2145 SUN D72009 STN KUL 2315 1915 TUE D72012 KUL ORY 0120 0900 TUE D72013 ORY KUL 1030 0510 WED D72008 KUL STN 1500 2145 WED D72009 STN KUL 2315 1915 FRI D72012 KUL ORY 0120 0900 FRI D72013 ORY KUL 1030 0510 SAT D72006 KUL STN 0910 1555 SAT D72007 STN KUL 1725 1325 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flee 5 Report post Posted June 29, 2011 (edited) This was XAB arriving at ORY on Sunday 26 June 2011. It made the return flight to KUL and arrived on 27 June. Just got to know that XAB was withdrawn for an engine change. So the A333 substituted it. Edited June 29, 2011 by flee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flee 5 Report post Posted June 29, 2011 Next year, they will receive three long range A332's from Airbus. That will tie them over till the A350s arrive. They will not renew the A343 leases. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flee 5 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 did A332 will take the A340 route before the A350 coming........When The A340 stop their operation?? I have no idea when the A343s will be withdrawn from D7 service - I suppose they will be around until the lease ends. They are known to burn more fuel than the A333's - so they will only be used for the >9 hrs long haul flights as the A333's do not have the range or endurance. I think that the additional order for the A332s is to hedge against delays in the A350 deliveries as D7 will return the A340s when the lease expires. With 3 A332's mext year, D7 should be able to do daily frequencies to both STN and ORY. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
