This has been my dream ever since the Korean air news broke.

Maybe see if Air China wants to drop their six as well (I think the seventh is used as a VIP plane).

Anyway, I don't mind living in this world where the LH 747-400 will probably be around until 2040. (that won't happen, but honestly at this point who knows when they will actually go)
