New Aircraft Deliveries

Some aircraft have now three letters code on the nose wheel flaps (instead of two letters as usual).
Seen it yesterday on EI-EVE and EI-ESR:





(sorry, much fog yesterday at CRL !)

EI-EVJ delivered 8 march 12
EI-EVK : 14 march 12

EI-EVL delivered on 24 march 2012
EI-EVM on 3 April 2012

EI-EVN on 6 april 2012.

According to my source :
http://www.jethros.org.uk/fleets/fleet_listings/ryanair_in_service.htm
all aircraft before EI-DAC (in alphabetical order) have left the Ryanair fleet.
EI-DAC was delivered on 3 december 2002. It means that all Ryanair aircraft are less than 10 years old.

EI-EVO delivered on 25 April 2012
EI-EVP on 28 April

Ryanair has confirmed it will now take delivery of its final batch of Boeing 737-800s secured under a record 100-aircraft order placed back in 2002.
A total of 11 new 737s are due for delivery by early 2013 from Boeing's US assembly plant.

Deputy chief executive Michael Cawley confirmed that negotiations about a new order are underway -- though the airline refused to reveal if the talks involve the giant US aircraft manufacturer or their bitter rivals Airbus.

Ryanair buying 150 new Boeing 737's. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/reuters/rns_bus/~3/-zvOkPE1OQo/us-ryanair-boeing-order-idUSBRE90M0RV20130123

A very good news !
Let's hope that the deal will be signed in a matter of weeks, as expected.

Most or all of the planes would likely be current generation 737s rather than the upcoming Max upgrade, which would allow Ryanair to secure a significant discount on the list price, two of the sources said on Wednesday.
A large order of current generation 737s would help Boeing ensure no fall in production as customers hold out for the Max, scheduled to enter service in 2017.
A deal would be a boost for Boeing as it seeks to sort out problems with its new 787 airliner.

Clever !

Yes he is smart, MOL will probably walk away with a nice discount (+50%), the only problem is when will the first deliveries be made?
Just to keep the momentum in growth?

Found posted on www.luchtzak.be :

Latest rumours are that together with introducing the new crew uniforms the new aircrafts which will start arriving in October/November 2014 will have all the "yellow" elements removed from the cabin and will be fitted with Boeing's Sky Interior.
