Now I understand the ZOOM 763 I saw at Schiphol Airport a few days ago. It's a former KLM bird, will ZOOM only take-over two 763s from KLM? I can hardly wait for the first KLM A332 in August/September.

Maybe because MP was looking for PW powered B767's and or they didnt want a type A door before the wing and another type of door behind the wing, ie they wanted something similar to their B767-300ER fleet.

yup, BZA and BZC, BZB and BZD will go to neos and the other 8 are rumoured to go to transaero...
How come Zoom took a KLM 763, but Martinair, which is part owned by KLM (I think) was having trouble finding a 763 for their fleet?
MP fly's with PW engines, besides they already found a 6th 767 wich will be delivered saturday and will be based at brussel. Besides, those 767's are leased from ILFC if im correct. Not a singel 767 is owned...

All Boeing 767's of KLM were/are leased and as the leasecontracts are expiring, the planes are for the lessor and they will seek a new customer.
