I think 5 are to come including G-VWEB. The others are:

G-VBUG - Feb 2007

G-VJAM - July 2007

G-VLUV - Sept 2007

G-VFUN - Dec 2007.


Might be more though that haven't been assigned a Reg yet...[:?]

OK as you gamely offered with your ISTBC... at least 7 grammatical/spelling errors in a 17 word sentence is somewhat OTT. Can I respectfully suggest the spelling checker?

30 secs.... all this travel is slowing you down mate!

Though I disagree with your link... OK is not an abbreviation per se so I don't see O.K. as an acceptable form...

oh for goodness sake does it really matter??
you're obviously very bright - why the need to debate who's the brightest on a public forum?
If it helps I'll vote for both of you.

Following this link I read:

"It gives the reader something to look for so they aren't distracted by the total lack of content in your writing."

What does? Classic bad English ... nope wouldn't rely on that link for any guidance ... nor would I look to Wikipedia.

Try the Oxford Dictionary for Writers and Editors, that book is about as good as it gets.

Meh the moment they change the forum rules to allow laziness in typing I'll have no reason to enforce that rule. This isn't about intelligence Dom - you're bright yourself and doubtless know that. It's about respecting the rules of a community you have opted to join. Once the community decides that those rules are irrelevant (or the community "owner" does so) then the custodians can divert their efforts elsewhere.

To ignore the rules of a forum is disrepectful of other forum members who make the effort to abide by them.

I've just wasted 10 seconds of my life reading this rubbish. I was expecting to find a threat about G-VWEB!

Only 10 seconds? Clearly you weren't reading carefully enough... ;)

lucky you, it took me around 5mins! [:o)] Take it my reading skills need to be looked at! [}:)] Or it's more likely the case that I am just SLOW! [:#]

Back to the topic. There are 25 A340-600 been ordered plus 13 options (although there are rumours that VS converted 10 options to firm orders recently). It started an order of 10, followed by 2 additional, and then 13 firm + 13 options in one go.

17 of those been delivered, and 8 more to join (or 18, if the rumours is true). Obviously VWEB is the next one to come.
