There are only 14 787-10s on order. I suspect once UA has gotten enough information on how they perform and where they fit in the system, we will see a top-up order of 78Js as well as 789s. |
752 scimitars:
N19130 - photos confirm scimitar winglets installed N19141 - cannot confirm last remaining unit w/o - last photo on internet looks like pre-Summer 2017. |
UAX Update
CR2:
N415AW (2001 build) has entered UAX service with Air Wisconsin N460AW (2003 build) has entered UAW service with Air Wisconsin E45: United re-registered several aircraft that had been parked in the desert. N15910 has re-entered service with ExpressJet (UAX) N16911 has re-entered service with ExpressJet (UAX) There are 5 other frames so far in preparation to re-enter service. |

Really? My main thought is trying to figure out where UA is going to add all these new planes to, unless they are going to start doing many Polaris retrofits on 772s...I don’t see UA adding a whole bunch of new long/thin routes. I'm going to be bold in stating that between the 787-10 and the 777-300ER we won't see an A350 in UA colours. |

Surprised to see E145's coming back. Did UA hit the reduction number from the Fall Investor Report?
