There is no such a thing called Airbus 320-200, it's just one type A320, my friend.

[hmasurg]

@simon1430 Thanks simon... as far as i know the prototype was 100 and they manufactures some they can be destict by the lack of wingtip fences (BA and AF had some of these) the one we know now was the 200 version with the wingtip fences and because it is so famous now and the 100 is absolute they are called

A320.. thanks for watching and commenting freind!

[hmasurg]

@MegaPlanelover Terrible actually.. just ask US airways!.... sadly no video.. trust me not missing much.

[THEIZAZO]

@hmasurg No Hani i meant Air India A320 and A321 ;) But they send the 77L in summer time :)

[hmasurg]

@THEIZAZO ooops! lol

[am1966ath]

Sam Chui flew EK A380 Between DXB and RUH..amazing photos but what a waste for such short trip..like BA or Lufthansa flying B747 between LHR and FRA..travelling First class for two hours????

[hmasurg]

@am1966ath Sam Chui is well known and his flight to JED was well marked by his aswesome photos/. Ek is planning to have so many A380 so they have no problem sending some on regional routes JED-DXB is about 2 hours 45 minutes... FC for a short trip tends to be too expensive to make scence but I guess for some that is no problem. I have been on JED-DXB on a two class configured A380 of EK.

[THEIZAZO]

@hmasurg brilliant as usual but how in the hell does SV operates there A320 to the long haul flight to FRA :P KU always use the wide body airplanes to FRA and i noticed that AI always brings there 747 to RUH they always bring the A320 and A321 to KWI only in the summer they bring 77L ;)

[hmasurg]

@THEIZAZO Thanks.. they used to send the 777 to FRA, GVA, MXP, CDG and MAD now.. all by the A320 (A330 to CDG from JED)... so you say SV A321 in KWI? I didnt know they dlew there :-)

[am1966ath]

Those cargo-doors really save time and time is of importance in air-cargo. AI B744 werent that old..wonder if their B777 could cover the ground. AI has big problems when faced with competition on domestic and international routes by other Indian players...and formidable Emirates.

[hmasurg]

@am1966ath True.. it would seem to me the 744 could have had a new life with more cargo operations. These nose doors could not be in any other aircraft (not even the A380). seems like the only real future for the 747-8 will be for cargo which is a shame because I love it!!

[am1966ath]

@hmasurg The problem that carriers with cargo operations seems to prefer the MD11 or even B777F..what a waste when the B747 can gooble up so much cargo..Riyadh could be a cargo hub with B747F dooking at those 30year old doors that still are a revolutionery invention as Saudia don t market its connection and seems to be paranoid about transit passangers..se the photograper SAM CHUI on internet and his adventures in your Kingdom.

[hmasurg]

@am1966ath True if RUH was marketed well and some concessions provided RUH can be used as a mjor Cargo hub like Brussels.. same thing goes to DMM. .. Saudi airports still seem to be terrified of the concept of transit travel (where the money might as well be in).

[xnightfriendx]

great

[hmasurg]

@xnightfriendx Thanks.. more to come.. stay tuned :-)

[sva226]

NICE Dear

[hmasurg]

@sva226 thanks for watching and commenting, more to come!

[am1966ath]

Another nice video from Hmsurg..work of art with relaxing,enjoyable music. Wow, Dhaka is nearly as far away from Riyadh as is London...Huge Acf Air India is using to a provincial destination..must be lots of guestworkers..those Cargo-doors for B747Fs featured in Saudia-advertisment in 1979,quite revolutionery , what a waste that they are unused..the cargo MD11F that Saudia uses today don t have a front door that opens but still...who is doing the polanning at Saudia-cargo...that invention was

[am1966ath]

@hmsurg way ahead of its time and saved a lot of time....

[hmasurg]

@am1966ath Thanks my friend.. AI have retired their 744 fleet except for RUH and JED flights.. you still see them around.. I hope they keep flying still... they look good particularly in old colors. The cargo door idea is simple yet very innovative.. I don't know why they are not used more frequently.. last time I saw a plane using theses doors was SV 742F a few years ago.. shame! - who plans for SV cargo?? the same person who plans for SV.. mediocre!

[am1966ath]

@hmasurg There are similar cargo-doors at Frankfurt, for Lufthansas fleet of B747F..which they have since retired in favour for that universal cargo-bird MD11F..the result is the same..they can not be used on the MD11..only on visiting cargo-birds who are B747F, like Dragonair cargo,SQ,MH etc...what a waste.

When I see your videos on Saudi airports I see lots of potential,unused planes,dormant facilities and waste..a talanted saudi with a MBA in airline management could do wonders.

Nice job nailing the SV leased 744 TF-AMT...

[hmasurg]

@Starboard76 Thanks.. we think alike.. that was my fave part of this video!

[Starboard76]

@hmasurg oh yeah, those rare short-lived leases (they rarely get full paint jobs) on your latest Jeddah vid there's a leased 743 with a white bod but SV logo on a white tail..unique!
