    Emirates has withdrawn one of the A340-500 registration A6-ERH from the fleet and it's now been positioned in storage at Lourdes on the 20/11/2014. Ferry flight operated as EK3073 yesterday morning in all white livery.

    guys any pictures of this bird? Does any body know how many A340 types are in Emirates fleet?

              Those A343s were manufactured back in 1997. They must have retired the A343s before retiring A345s which flew the first flight in 2003.

                          Do you know why Eastern Airlines ceased the operations in 1991? in the past they served international destinations like Gatwick etc.. Hopefully they will give a new look for the New Eastern Airlines.
