Kiwi has 4 wings clipped....

2 planes, 4 wings....

The following from Bloomberg news, NY Times, AP

" Newark, New Jersey, Feb. 18 -- Two of Kiwi International Air Lines' eight jets were repossessed by closely held London-based company Fly France 1 Ltd. after Kiwi didn't honor an agreement to buy the planes, the New York Times reported, citing the Associated Press. Discount carrier Kiwi is now flying only four planes, as its two other planes are being repaired. The airline is putting passengers who would have flown on the repossessed Boeing Co. 727s on Pan Am and Sun Pacificairlines' flights, Kiwi spokesman Rob Kulat told AP, the newspaper said.
