Solnabo, 10 -200 for NW, 14 -300s, with options for 36 more -300s. Don't know if they can change those -300 options to -200s. NW will probably excersize options for the 330 to take a few more widebody a/c.

Im not a big fan of the A330, but I must say it looks great in the new NWA livery. I wonder what routes it will be placed on?

Nice!
But I think the 7E7 would look better!
When is this aircraft going to be delivered and what route is it flying?

Looks a lot like Northwest's A330-300s, just a bit shorter. /end smart ass commentary.

Don't know if they can change those -300 options to -200s.
They can, and, in fact, might. It all depends on how Asia works out.
I bet NW is one of the people that, along with US, is angry that PW discontinued development of the PW4173.
Does anyone know the MTOWs ordered for each variant?

I take it from the previous post, that Northwest will use the Pratt and Whitney engine that was talked about previously? Will they be using the the PW's on all of their 200's and how does that work for parts if they need them?

Dont kill me, but dont you think 7E7 gonna look something like a mix of 757/332 when finshed?? *just a thought*
What relevance does that have to this thread? Perhaps to rip on the 7E7 again?

And MSP, the birthplace of Northwest Airlines, will continue to get stuck with those terrible DC10s? Not fair!

So there are no routes from the main DTW MSP or MEM hubs? Thats interesting.

Give a little bit...
25 Pacific: Sweet plane in a sweet c/s. The folks at MSP are lucky, they get to see the DC-10 for a while longer before its gone for good!
26 Korg747: looks really nice but I still think USairway's livery is the best on A330s.

28 WingnutMN: After flying in the DC-10 and the A330, I think that the -10's feel like rockets! The 330 was a nice ride, but the power of the -10 is amazing. I'd ta
29 Msp12r: MSP has been getting all the new 330s for NW when they are delivered from TLS. They then get ferried over to DTW (or in the case of the newer -200s, p

32 Theflcowboy: Why dont they paint the WHOLE tail instead of leaving the 4-5 feet of it silver at the bottom - would look better in my opinion
33 Cbphoto: Jano...Thanks for the info..I have grown up in MSP all my life...and the year I go to college NWA decides to start delivering the A330s to MSP..Go fig
34 SFOintern: what sort of IFEs will be on-board this beauty?
35 SR 103: what sort of IFEs will be on-board this beauty? A similar AVOD system that is currently in place on the A330-300. SR 103
