These are even newer. I think they started being delivered around 2002.

I was talking about the 400's. But yes, the -400ER's are obviously newer.

Rory was talking specifically about the 400's, not the 400ER's, so the 3 he mentioned are the newest 400's being delivered 1999/2000. But yes the -400ER's are newer.

I was aware that Rory was speaking about the 400s specifically,hence why i said "those three along with the ERs". I was merely stating the ERs were newer again, and that they would also be staying.

I am aware that OJS is staying. Does anyone know what is happening to her in Avalon, a "D" check perhaps?????

Fred C · #**205** 10th April 2013, 02:21 AM

Yes, It is having a "D' check. Its second one in fact.

Anthony F · #**206** 10th April 2013, 09:55 AM

Does OJS get the interior pulled out again during the 'D' check only being installed last year when it was upgraded to the equivilent to A380 spec.
