Any word on an Avianca a318?

I’m hopeful too. Would think that January we’ll see the Antonov as well. January releases will be out next week so we won’t have to wait long to find out.

I was in Vegas last week and the very earliest I am being told by GJ is March on the AN-225’s but more likey April

Is that because of the Covid lockdowns in China?

Partly I can only assume but details weren’t revealed. This is one of the reasons why we don’t do preorders in our store. Initially they we’re supposed to be out before Christmas, I inquired and was told it was pushed back. Then visiting last week was told, March at the very earliest, but I’m not holding my breath on that one either.

Great news, finally an excuse to try out NG's A350! Will these be coming in 2023, or did they not give a specific timeline?

They said they wanted to make the A350 this year, but did not give a timeline for the 777.
