IAG has re scheduled its long haul aircraft deliveries for 2017 - 2022 with AB and BO, no cancellations ! Quote "IAG has shuffled the delivery schedule of new twin-aisle aircraft, having previously indicated that it was reviewing its long-haul fleet development. The company states that it has outstanding commitments to 43 Airbus A350s, among them 18 A350-1000s, for delivery in 2018-22. It is also taking 18 Boeing 787s – including 12 of the new 787-10 – over 2017-21." Full Article - www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/iag-satisfied-with-long-haul-deliveries-shuffle-434560/

Not engine, cockpit fire and smoke alarm went off during the flight.
Very strong smoke in cockpit and all pilots were wearing oxygen mask when landed in YFB, Canada on 12th Sept.

Woah. Any time the cockpit gets smoky forcing the pilots to wear oxygen masks, it is quite a scary situation to be in. SR 111 and UPS 006 are always on the back of my mind when it comes to such a scenario. Fortunately, this is a good outcome.

Does anyone know what timescale the first major maintenance check is due on a B787 ? BAs first couple were delivered In June 2013, is it 6 years ? I saw one visit BAMC Cardiff a few years back just to check it fitted the hangers OK !

G-ZBJE flew today since 7th March 2018.
A test flight was performed today at London Heathrow. Looks like someone has come back from the dead..
Happy Friday!
