BXA went out of the hangar last night, will be flying 23/11 with the winglets.
Next a/c will be PH-BXN, currently in hangar 10.

Just seen BXE and BXA in the past week. BXN is being converted now. Which 737 will be next after BXN?

cheers,

Does that mean that conversion on BXN is finished ?

Hi,

Zag onderstaande info vandaag via de DSML voorbij komen:
Credits: Rob van Ringelesteijn

Op dit moment vliegen de BXV, BXU, BXE, BXA en BXN van de KLM rond met winglets. In deze volgorde zijn ook de winglets in hangar 10 op SPL oost geplaatst met uizondering natuurlijk van de BXV watn die is natuurlijk in Seattle al voorzien van deze mooie flaporen.

Het alfabet wordt niet afgewerkt zoals jullie kunnen zien en hier onder volgt het schema van de ombouw van de 8 en 900's. Wijzigingen voorbehouden natuurlijk

B737-800

BXC WEEK 49 (NU DUS)
BXB WEEK 50
BXF WEEK 01 2008
BXG WEEK 02
BXH WEEK 03/04
BXI WEEK 04/05
BXK WEEK 06
BXL WEEK 07
BXM WEEK 08
BXD WEEK 09/10

B737-900

BXO WEEK 10
BXP WEEK 11
BXR WEEK 11/12
BXS WEEK 12
BXT WEEK 12/13

De kisten waar 2 weken voor staan betekent dat ze gepland staan om ook in het weekeind in de hangaar te staan. De 900's staan korter binnen. Deze zijn bij Boeing geloof ik al geprepareerd om er ooit flaporen op te zetten !!!

Correct, maar niet echt een onderwerp voor dit topic, daar die kist met winglets deze kant op komt.

Voor zover ik begrijp 'behandelen' we in dit topic alleen de conversions.

Bye, Chris.

This probably has to do with the fact that the BXI was waiting on a AOG part from Seattle which was not due to arrive earlier than Monday.

Does this mean BXC and BXI changed places in the que or will the known list shift ?

Thx, Chris.
