S V Choong 4 Report post Posted October 14, 2005 (edited) Hi guys, With the sad departure of our long time friends 9M-MHJ Kota Kinabalu (formerly Johor Bahru) and 9M-MHI Kuching. I wonder if MAS have decided to dry lease any freighters than 100% rely on Air Atlanta Icelandic? I guess MAS cannot be bother with it until the two SUD 747-4H6/Fs coming online by end of next year? How are they going to cover the gaps, as I understand they are not allowed to fly into Japan with TF registered a/c. Any insight into this matter? Cheers 9M-MHJ http://www.airliners.net/open.file/704761/L/ http://www.airliners.net/open.file/804406/L/ 9M-MHI http://www.airliners.net/open.file/909736/L/ http://www.airliners.net/open.file/811221/L/ http://www.airliners.net/open.file/876917/L/ Edited October 14, 2005 by S V Choong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S V Choong 4 Report post Posted October 14, 2005 Do you guys think MASKargo should go on their own? The 777-200LR/F will be a good choice as a freighter. Perhaps MAS Kargo should look into it Just an idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radzi 2 Report post Posted October 15, 2005 They wanted to dry-lease a B742 from Air Atlanta, but that has run into some problems. As of now the crew are unemployed (makan gaji buta!) and some are being redeployed to their previous fleet. The FEs are the most affected since they have nowhere to go.

S V Choong 4 Report post Posted October 15, 2005 So it means MASKargo have to temporarily suspend their Japan routes? I bet they must have received a good price offer for their ex-freighters 9M-MHI and MHJ, otherwise it wouldn't make sense to let go of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But unfortunately they don't have the money to do so, even if they do have lots of cash to burn, i would suggest them to use the money on upgrading their passenger aircraft, replacing old aircraft as well as buying brand new planes such as 787 or 350.
