Jump to postIt is interesting that none of the news reports say where the planes went so thank you for this update. I wish there were spotters to photograph the planes at these outstations.

Jump to postI'm a fan of Rwanda and of Rwandair. They seem to be making reasonably progress but also may be headed down the road of having too many aircraft types in their small fleet. The addition of one A330-200 and a larger A330-300 seems strange: they should choose one. It could also be a money burner. On t...
