Wow !! What is the reason for the big order? Are they planning for network expansion to all over the world?

Plus as many have said these large orders mean American and European businesses also stand to lose if the political situation gets bad again.

9V-SWB
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.

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?

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What I was thinking, due to the age of the aircraft and it's one of the 1st 300 ER s in the fleet, it might get withdrawn?

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