DHL is to choose between A350F and B777-8F for a future order, soon !
Quote CH Aviation - "DHL Express will order either the A350F or B777-8F in "the not-so-distant" future as
the global logistics firm strives to lower its environmental footprint, Senior Vice-President (Global Air
Fleet Management) Malcolm Macbeth said during the Cargo Facts Symposium in San Diego.
"We've taken the stance that anything that we get from 2025 onwards that's still going to be with us
in 2050 has to be an improvement in efficiency. So that basically says that, after 2025, anything new that
we get in the large-widebody space will have to be the new technology," he said.
DHL International has an unfilled order for seven current-generation B777-200Fs from Boeing, with deliveries
planned through early 2025.
