Lets hope thisdoesn't include any of the possible future VS wish list....

Or it could mean the 787 arriving earlier...

Interesting that these are actual orders rather than options.

Rumour has it that all 32 are from Etihad, only Airbus have announced it's them with their 7 cancellations, but strong rumours Etihad cancelled the 25 dreamliner order...Boeing trying to keep it quiet.

Interestingly, Seattle Times published an article yesterday which only mentioned the Airbus cancellations, wonder why they'd be biased?

Hmm I read that as 32 airlines cancelled orders. Not two airlines cancelled 32 aeroplanes ... no wonder it got my attention.

That 32 plane orders have been cancelled nearly half way through the year is not really news, happens all the time - China Eastern cancelled 25 787s last November for example.

And the Dreamliner is causing Air India some nightmares when it comes to pilots.

If ever there was a case study for an inefficient, state-run, money drain of an airline, Air India would be it. Should have been allowed to fail years ago.
