這一則不是舊聞也不是OP，而是國泰內心小劇場。 1.國泰CEO史樂山先生表示，2013上半年國泰將會決定到底要不要引進747-8或A380。 2.因為國泰將在今年年底前出清747-400，在有slot限制的倫敦線，沒大飛機不行。 3.雖然之前國泰很喜歡77W很能裝的鮪魚肚，但改款後的A380好像看起來也不錯。 4.史樂山也表示，747-8F是非常棒的貨機。 5.國泰並未透露將購買幾架VLA。 6.史樂山認為波音目前只有空管787的問題，777X應該是分身乏術。 Cathay Evaluating Widebody Needs, Considering A380s And 747-8s By Leithen Francis Source: Aviation Daily February 01, 2013 Cathay Pacific CEO John Slosar tells Aviation Week the airline is evaluating the Airbus A380 and Boeing 747-8 and expects to make a decision on whether to place an order for passenger variants in the first half of 2013. Cathay will have phased out most of its 747-400 passenger aircraft by the end of the year, and has to deal with slot constraints at London Heathrow Airport and Hong Kong International Airport, Slosar says. And while his predecessor found cost inefficiencies with the A380 and preferred the cargo capacity of the 777-300ER, Slosar notes that the maximum takeoff weight of aircraft like the A380 changes as improvements are made to the aircraft. Slosar also acknowledges that the 747-8 freighters already operating in Cathay ’s fleet “are operating very well as freighters.” He did not say how many aircraft Cathay will need. The CEO anticipates that Boeing’s immediate problems with the 787 program may inadvertently delay the unveiling of the airframer’s 777X. He had earlier predicted that Boeing would officially launch the 777X program in the first half of 2013, but in light of recent problems with the 787 program he says he may have to change his prediction. Slosar reasons that the need to devote engineering resources to resolve problems with the 787’s lithium-ion batteries will divert attention from the next generation of the 777. “I haven’t heard anything recently about the 777X,” Cathay’s CEO tells Aviation Week on the sidelines of an event marking Malaysia Airlines’ entry into Oneworld. As for the 787 program, Slosar expects the current problems will be resolved. “There’s been a bit of a stumble, but I don’t have any doubts that they [Boeing] will get this fixed. Boeing is a world-class company that knows what they are doing.” http://www.aviationweek.com/Article.aspx?id=/article-xml/avd_02_01_2013_p03-01 -543373.xml http://0rz.tw/cMNKR 以目前訂購747-8I的航空公司來看， LH根本沒飛台灣， KE/CA也不太可能拿來飛台灣，只好期待CX下單再以EQV的身份讓大家開福袋了。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 114.33.221.3
