So on a more positive note I guess the chances of NF with a Mid-J 747-400 have just increased by around 3%. They won't change again now until 2014.

Will be interesting to see how the logistics of using NF interiors on OF airframes will work. I presume that the airframe with NF to be retired will go to CWL to have the NF interior stripped out. Then it will continue on to VCV whilst an OF frame will then go to VCV for a few days for the conversion to NF. I suspect the excess OF parts will be kept a spares until the entire fleet is NF.

I suspect once we get to under 10 OF frames OF will become confined to certain low yield routes.....
