Cathay Pacific PW powered 747-412

[S V Choong 4]

Cathay Pcific bought four ex-SIA 747-412, hence a number of PW powered 744 about a year ago. Seen here are B-HKD (ex-9V-SMN) and B-HKE (ex-9V-SMK), both aircraft (and the rest too) are being refurbished and repainted by Taeco Maintanence hangar at Xiamen, Fujian Province of the people's republic.

 

B-HKD received the cabin equipments from B-HOU. B-HOU, an RR powered 744, is now being converted into Cargo plane for Cathay Pacific Cargo.

A question for Pieter, do KLM often send their a/c to XMN for maintainance?
