AirBridgeCargo also takes LN 1520 (Seattle Seahawks livery). The aircraft is now in VCV for re-paint in ABC livery.  N841BA Aug 20 2015 by Peter, on Flickr |

3 748s ! I am impressed, AirBridge Cargo seems to be immune from Russian economic travails.

One thing I don't understand is, why Boeing didn't sell LN1437 to Atlas (even with further discount), instead they built a new frame LN1526 for them when Atlas needs the 10th frame.
LN1437 was built for Atlas' specification, would be much easier to sell it to Atlas than anyone else.

They have now 10 frames stored - I just wonder when/if we will see those out. It seems that even heavy discount does not help much.

With discounts for 748 already average close to 60%, it really not making much money for Boeing isn't it?
I hate to see it go, but economically $150m per 748 really doesn't make that much sense. And it make the list price of $378m/$379m really silly.
