Higher weights?? Great, now we won't have to bump all those pax (which the bus ALWAYS does, or so I've read).

The Hold-up as I heard it were the A.D notes and Mods to communize them with our own airplanes. These -232's have a lightly higher Max ZFW and Max Landing weight than our-231's and the ACARS, GPWS mode 5-7 with TAWS has yet to be installed. The FAA CMO out of San Francisco seems to already be in the loop... Now? There could BE more A319's for all I know but the A320-232's is what I heard and more than ONCE. And I'm particularly interested as I will be in the Group handling them on the TOMC Airbus desk. As Well as the A350. |
A -232 would have been great the other day on SEA-ORD. The 145.5 landing weight would have given us a little better alternate options than just RFD.

-10 creative points for not weaving a BUMP somewhere into your post. But otherwise awesome (possible) news! :)
Used Airbus 319s (320s?) 777-300s for 787s Ex-Con 737-500s (this rumor still has wings apparently) Houston 737 BUMP (not a rumor according to the IAH CPO) DEN 76T BUMP (Closure?) Any others? :D |
Used 737-700s is now up to 4 from Copa. First, is/or will be MIA shortly for induction.

FWIW all, Frontier's Aibii have CFM-56 engines. I doubt United's looking for CFM airbii. |
