And even B-HLU has not even has it's new livery either.

B-KPB will be leaving the fleet on October the 1st (not 100% confirmed). Have been on her for a few times and she (in her good looking special livery) will surely be missed.

bummer if true. The 77H/77As are such a great configuration in J and F. They will sorely be missed!

B-KPB will fly to Pima Air and Space Museum after quitting the fleet like B-HNL does.

What?! I knew the B77W secondary market was bad, but really?? That's only 11 years of service on that bird if true!

Is there something wrong with it? Was it some weird build making it less efficient than the rest?

I know Boeing has had a legitimate problem on their hands with the 77W secondary market for some time now. But this would have to be the first 77W getting parked I believe. If not the first, then one of the first.

Interesting CNN article on the retirement of B-HNL.

i believe KPB is leased from ILFC and (like the other 4 77W) is being returned.

KPB is going to Nordwind Airlines (not 100% confirmed)
It’s not true that every retired aircraft goes to Pima!

Haha. Yes, otherwise it would quickly become a shrine for all of the FFs who are missing the 77H layout..!

KPB is going to Xiamen and will be returned to lessor afterwards. No more fake news, please. Suggest our dear mods to take proper action if that happens again.

Would not be surprising. They have taken on a number of similarly aged 777s in the last year.

In what ways it's fake? KPB is not leaving the fleet? It's not the end of lease?
