      They ordered 6 A380s quite some time ago (I think before the A380 was in service) but they have been deferred multiple times. Currently expected to be delivered in 2018 though most industry analyst believe it'll never happen

            What's the flying hours between Dubai and Bangkok? What's the maximum range of B737?

                  Good Article on North Korean Airline

                  Fly on North Korea’s rarest Russian airliners | CNN
                  http://edition.cnn.com/2016/07/04/aviation/north-korea-airline-air-koryo-aviation-enthusiast-russian-airplanes/index.html
                  North Korea’s national airline, Air Koryo, offers aviation that is nearly extinct – flying on Soviet-era airplanes such as the Ilyushin Il-18.

                    Hi umedha, What's going to happen to 9V-SWB? is it serious damage to the aircraft after engine fire? is it possible to see her operating flights back again after repairs?
                    241 POB, and there's a wiki page for it too No injuries as all stayed on board while the ARFF extinguished the flames and passengers departed via stairs.

                    I did consult Shanaka aboutabout this as soon as it happened. According to his experience most likely she will be repaired.
                    What I was thinking, due to the age of the aircraft and it's one of the 1st 300 ER s in the fleet, it might get withdrawn?
                    If I am not wrong, since SQ doesn't own any of the frames ( ) they may speed 9V-SWBs departure. Though the Chinese way of operating things around here - bad luck and all. Or may be good luck as there was no loss of lives or injuries. You can never tell.

                    Then again, BA 2276 - G-VIIO was fixed and is back in operation. And G-VIIO was in a pretty bad shape - in pictures..

                        And a lot of argument online if the decision not to emergency evac was right or not ..

                        Though it's pretty much a non-issue in Singapore in Singapore.

                        About 60 seconds after the plane came to a complete stop, ARFF starting dousing the fire.

                            21 A320ceo Family and 24 A320neo Family jetliners, 27 from the A330ceo Family, 18 A330-900neo aircraft, 16 A350-1000s and 12 A380s. Iranians are on fire
                            According to Reuters, Iran Air may convert or cancel the order of 12 x A380. I was thinking where there going to fly these A380? It looks like Iran Air up for competing with ME3.
