    ...aren't they buying B777s like they are going out of style? Do they make room in the fleet or keep operating both types? A340 is getting old for the image the Arabian airlines want to portray ... that of brand new luxury and space. But what do I know? lol...

    They're coming from Etihad, which has exactly four A345s. (They ordered five, but the last one was the plane that crashed into a wall in Toulouse.) http://nycaviation.com/2012/01/venez...-buying-binge/
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.

    Not to nitpick Matt - but the Toulouse incident was a -600 - not a -500.
