Not too fond of the green. Could've been better methinks.

Would MSN157-EK be convoyed before MSN154-EK?... MSN154 is just reported in PB now, as MSN157 has been reported in PB since a little while already... Fabien

I agree with Peter. It's not because it was not seen before, that it was not there earlier.

www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/a380-must-benefit-from-emerging-engine-technology-clark-390796/> Emirates plans to start replacing its fleet of A380s by new A380s starting from 2020, so there is an "automatic replacement" requirement for another 90 A380s (on top of the 90 currently ordered) > In addition, if Dubai's airport constraints could be resolved, Emirates could take "many more", possibly doubling its fleet size > Mr. Clark firmly believes that "the A380 is the future for long-haul mass transit" > The A380's slow sales in recent years are due to an "accident of timing", as the A380 entered into service just as the global financial crisis hit > Clark is pushing GE / Engine Alliance to upgrade the GP7200 with the latest engine technologies

Unfortunately, the article is behind a paywall. Thank you for the summary, XWB ! The A380 is lucky to have such a stalwart supporter !
