Great info, MAN Flyer! Thanks for sharing them with us.

But there goes my plans to be on the familiarization flights.

Anyway...

Some interesting sentences from the January issue of internal SQ newsletter:

1) SIA CEO Chew Choon Seng:
- "... we will take delivery of three more B777-300s..." during 2005-6.
- "... we will be developing the entry into service later in 2006 of the first of 18 new generation B777-300ERs that we ordered in August. We also have some secret weapons which I am allowed to disclose only in the fullness of time." Hmm.... secret weapons? Any guesses?

2) "Live TV to be beamed on board by mid-year. SIA will be among the first carriers to offer real time inflight broadband service and will top it off with a world's first in mid-2005 by bringing live international TV on board, beamed through Connexion by Boeing to passengers' laptops."
