A few weeks back, JAL ordered a handful of 763s as well. There's still some life left in this old bird yet. Regards.

Well, this will help keep the B-767 line open for a few more months. Maybe long enough for the USAF to decide between the KC-767 or KC-330?

All Nippon Airways, Japan's second-biggest airline, said on Friday it would buy three 767 aircraft from Boeing for about JPY40 billion yen (USD$356 million).
With a new cargo aircraft, ANA said it would strengthen its cargo business by having a total of four freighters by March 2007.
The other two 767s will be passenger jets, which will be introduced from the business year to March 2007.
ANA announced the planned purchase of 767-300s with its quarterly earnings report. Its group operating profit rose 32.6 percent to JPY11.76 billion (USD$104.7 million) for the three months ended June as it offset high fuel prices by downsizing equipment and other expenses.
ANA's solid results contrasted with those of the country's biggest airline, Japan Airlines, whose group net loss widened to JPY32 billion (USD$28.5 million) for the same quarter from JPY30.3 billion (USD$269.7 million) a year earlier.

Quoting B742 (Reply 7): What varient of the 767 are they looking at, 200, 300 or 400? I'm guessing the 200 for the 330?
The tanker would either be a 767-200ER or an A330-200.

Boeing is probably offering some very nice deals on this plane to the airlines to keep the line open.
There are a lot of 707 based airframes in the military that they would love to replace with 767 frames.
