DC10-30s are NOT being retired any time soon. It is the DC10-40s that are being retired -- they will all be out of service next month. Checks on the -30s resume next month (September) full force in SIN. Trust me. If you want further details, please send me direct email.</font>
Sankaps, you are correct on this, but my question is if they are going to reconfigure the D10-30's for Int'l use, why don't they put the new WBC seats in them now vs. waiting till next year when the new A330's come on-line? Or is a reconfig that easy? Also, NWA lists having 23 D10-30's, will all be reconfigured for Int'l use?
