I read about a blog from a B777 pilot
On his way to FRA, his B77W shows fuel temp low alert and he didn't have a choice but to lower altitude down to FL260 to fly about 30 min so the fuel temp can go above -34C
However, a VN A359 is 10 min behind him on the same route and same FL didn't have this issue (he radioed them and asked their fuel temp which is -15C)
Any idea what might happen ?

New customer for a350 on horizon: www.ch-aviation.com/portal/news/63061-aerolineas-argentinas-to-decide-on-new-widebodies-in-4q18"Aerolineas Argentinas (AR, Buenos Aires Ezeiza) will decide on new wide-body aircraft by the end of 2018, with the options being Boeing B777s or B787s, or Airbus A350s, the carrier's CEO Mario Dell'Acqua told the Argentine press. The airline expects that the new aircraft will start arriving in 2019. The Argentine flag carrier intends to retire two of its A340-300s in 2018. Aerolineas Argentinas currently operates three aircraft of the type, deploying them on transatlantic services from Buenos Aires Ezeiza to each of Madrid Barajas and Barcelona El Prat. After retiring two of the aircraft, the carrier will temporarily suspend its service to Barcelona. "At first, we had decided to incorporate two new A330-200s to sustain the route to Barcelona, but then, analysing the situation, we realized that it was preferable to momentarily lose this destination and reformulate the operation," Dell'Acque said, quoted by iProfesional. The airline currently operates ten A330-200s. Dell'Acque underlined that these aircraft are not well-suited to cater for the long-term plans of the airline. Aerolineas Argentinas is also set to receive a further five B737 MAX 8s this year in addition to the first aircraft of the type delivered to the airline in November 2017. By the end of 2018, it intends to operate eighty-three aircraft compared to seventy-eight presently. The company's regional subsidiary, Austral, is set to commence the phase out of its twenty-six EMB-190 later this year." |

I think the word potential should be added to the first sentence  |

I would not be angry if he takes a bundle of A350 and A380 |

Erdogan is receiving a questionably warm welcome from Macron. I hope he has to pay a high price in aircraft orders for that treatment.
