Listen as a Lufthansa Airbus A340-600 is forced to abort its takeoff roll when an EgyptAir 777-300ER nearly crosses right in front of it at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York.
Boeing announced on Tuesday that Air Lease Corporation (ALC), the new plane lessor started by Steven Udvar-Hazy, will purchase 60 next-generation 737-800s.
Atlas will operate the new plane on behalf of Swiss freight company Panalpina, whose livery is painted on the new jet. A second 747-8F yet to be delivered will also wear the Panalpina livery.
