Title: 747-8F First Delivery Cancelled/postponed
Post by pj747 on Sep 18th, 2011 at 2:19am
Cargolux have postponed taking delivery of their first 747-8 Freighter on Monday, due to contractual issues. I have no idea what issues they could be, and why they were found just days before first delivery. Qatar Airways bought 355 stake in the airline just last week, and since no one shareholder has a controlling stake, my guess is that this may be the issue, again speculation. Its so sad, but if the delivery is cancelled, I'm sure there's customers who'd buy 'white-tails'. Thi is too bad for Boeing, I hope Cargolux can take their 747's.
