Looks like ABC will take #1520, which was originally for Asiana.
#1437 might have been around too long, even for ABC.
#1535 and #1536 are scheduled for production but not yet started so would be available if built.

The Seahawks 747 (LN 1520) will indeed go to ABC (on lease from Boeing).

Thanks for reviving the thread peter! So it means 747F will be UPS-exclusive line after the ABC frame? Hard to believe.

It won’t be, the LN1551 is for ABC (Volga-Dnepr is part of ABC) that already rolled out. We’ve discussed in a different thread, there were two unidentified orders for total of four frames recorded in December 2018 as an order for 3 frames and another for 1 frame. It is highly suspect ABC, Qatar and/or Saudi were behind those orders. ABC also have MoI for another 10 frames (I am away on business, need to check exact number when I got back).

Thanks for reviving the thread peter I just looked at our 748 threads. Besides the usual customer airline threads, previous years (yearly deliveries etc ...) threads and a picture thread, we have three general threads : - this 'Boeing 747-8 firing order' thread ; - a '748 white tail development' thread ; - a 'Boeing 747-8 general discussion' thread. Since news of this sub-type are few, I think we would be better-off with only two general threads (at most !) to avoid duplicating the discussions : - the existing '748 general discussion' thread ; - a '748 production' thread.

I think we can lock the '748 white tail development' thread since there's no white tail still sitting at Everett (?) But we can keep 'Boeing 747-8 firing order' thread as this is for production list while 'Boeing 747-8 general discussion' could talk about anything? Another solution is create a thread called "747-8 orders and deliveries" where we could talk about orders and productions altogether. Any idea? FabienA380 addasih ?

Me too, I think we can leave behind the 'white tail' thread.
