*LATAM is the new brand resulting from the joining of two South American airlines, LAN, TAM and their respective subsidiaries. In August 2015 it was announced that the two airlines would fully rebrand as LATAM, with one livery to be applied on all aircraft by 2018.
LATAM Airlines Group, made up of LAN Airlines and TAM Airlines, has taken delivery of its first A350 XWB in Toulouse, France. In doing so, TAM will become the first airline in the Americas to operate the all-new airliner and the fourth worldwide. TAM’s aircraft is configured in a premium two-class layout, with 348 seats, comprising of 30 Premium Business Class and 318 Economy. LATAM has ordered a total of 27 A350 XWB aircraft for the Group.

Really appreciate that! PR-XTA will be in service from Jan 2016 not sure about the exact date but it will fly between Sao Paulo and Manaus for training and crew familiarisation. After it will be used for Sao Paulo-Miami in March 2016 and then Sao Paulo-Madrid in April 2016. Do they really need two months to get familiarise with A350?
Do you have any latest picture of MSN27/35 PR-XTB/C which is in FAL (Final Assembly Line) at TLS?

Passengers scrambled for oxygen masks as London-bound plane descended 32,000 ft
A technical fault on the Gulf Air flight GF003 forced cabin crew to launch an emergency landing. The plane carrying 89 passengers plummeted 32,000 ft in a matter of minutes before landing safely at Heathrow on Tuesday.
The airline said in a statement after the incident: "Gulf Air can confirm that flight GF003, an Airbus 330, flying from Bahrain to London on 13 December, experienced technical issues that resulted in the airline's experienced cockpit crew successfully executing an emergency descent and safely landing at Heathrow International.
"The aircraft, carrying 89 passengers, landed without incident and all passengers disembarked safely.

GF A330 only carried 89 pax on BAH-LHR route. Passenger load factor looks worse.

Kuwait Airways Drops U.S.-London Route So It Doesn't Have To Fly IsraelisThe airline argues that a 1964 law prohibits it from selling tickets to citizens of Israel.
Kuwait Airways has ceased flying between New York's Kennedy International Airport and London's Heathrow Airport over a disagreement with U.S. officials who say the Middle Eastern carrier can't refuse to fly Israeli citizens.
The stoppage, which went into effect this week, is the latest in a spat*reaching back to 2013
, when Kuwait Airways refused to sell a ticket to Eldad Gatt, an Israeli citizen attempting to fly from JFK to Heathrow.
"It is unfortunate that Kuwait Airways has decided to suspend its service
, instead of accepting Israeli citizens as passengers,” Jeffrey Lovitky, a Washington lawyer representing Gatt, told USA Today on Tuesday. “This demonstrates Kuwait’s stubborn refusal to give up its boycott of Israeli citizens.”

Technician sucked into Air India plane engine in Mumbai airport, killed
The deceased allegedly got stuck in the engine of the flight while the plane was being taxied away.
Preliminary reports say the Plane's APU was in-Op, and was idling on one engine, and the pilot powered it up to bleed air start the other Engine, before the Ground crew gave the all clear.
It's an A 319

MAS = loosely is said as Malaysia no system, in the local lingo.
Here, it is just a legal process, which says you must advertise for the owners to come up and pay / collect them, before auctioning them off.
It's not like they don't know the owners, it's just the 747-200Fs are beyond economic recovery.
Just like for MH 370, when Malaysian Airlines wanted the plane declared lost, so the insurance payouts can start, the family members demanded that MH rescind the declaration.
So minus the plane being declared lost/written off, no insurance pay outs !Last edited by ecureilx; 11-12-2015, 06:39 AM.
