Fedex Buys More Airplanes?!?!?

I think that Airbus has a mod that will turn it into an A300-600 cockpit. They also do a cargo conversion. Sort of like the MD-10.

"Tradewinds" cargo out of KGSO (I believe) flys the A300 B4. DHL also flys them too, I recall reading about the A300 shot down over Bagdad was a "B4" model.....could be wrong though.

Shot down - - well, not exactly. Shot at, hit, extensive damage - - crew of 3, including FE, managed to bring it safely back to earth with no hydraulics, a la Sioux City style.

He11, I'd be willing to sit sideways in a Bus if they asked me to. As long as the coffee jug fits better than it does in the Boeing

Seriously, I have heard some chatter from folks in the schoolhouse about new widebody acquisitions.
