Stupid airline!

**Jeanske_SN** · 24th April 2004, 21:29

There is only one airline that replaces their fleet with older aircraft. The airline has been mentioned a few months ago.
The airline is.....................
Peter is prohibited from answering this question. You *******!

Northwest with more DC9s?

**RIPConcorde** · 24th April 2004, 21:37

Austrian with more F100s?

**tenthije** · 24th April 2004, 21:45

Jeanske did not see that one coming! But I have heard the answer over MSN so have been told to shut up. Oh, and that I am a ********. Thanks!

Emirates ?

**green320** · 25th April 2004, 07:03

Why Emirates?? I know the 343s are older but what did they replace which was newer?? My guess is Northwest also.

Northwest?

**Hand87_5** · 25th April 2004, 09:16

I don't think that it is NWA. They are in the process to renew their fleet.

**greekdude1** · 25th April 2004, 09:58

It can't be Northwest. Although they do have some older types in their fleet, those were all acquired new, with the exception of the DC-10-30's and some, but not all, of the DC-9's were acquired in the Republic takeover.

No, no, I'll help you.
It's an airline right between middle and far east.

**Jeanske_SN** · 25th April 2004, 13:39

No, the airline carries the name of one of the poorest countries in the world.

AH. In that case it's almost certainly poverty rather than stupidty at the bottom of all this, then.

It was Biman Bangladesh indeed. They replaced BAe ATP's with much older Fokker 28-4000's.

**Hand87_5** · 25th April 2004, 18:50

Maybe they found this way to reduce a debt ?

**Jeanske_SN** · 25th April 2004, 18:53

Ye but that's stupid, the F28's will generate less profit.

Have you ever considered the possiblilty that they couldn't afford anything else?

Perhaps there were F50's available or F100's and they could afford the lease?

Or heck.... maybe they couldn't fill the ATP's on the routes they served and needed a reliable aircraft with lower seat numbers.

Please think about these factors before you brand an airline stupid

**Jeanske_SN** · 27th April 2004, 11:25

Still, the Fokker 28's use the same amount of fuel as a 737. Even using the ATP's with lower load factors would be more profitable than using fuel guzzling (for it's size) F28's.
