AFRICAN START-UP Air Sénégal signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for two Airbus A330neos. The agreement was signed in Dubai in the presence of Maïmouna Ndoye Seck, Minister of Air transport and Development of Infrastructure, Senegal. The airline plans to launch flights shortly, and will use the A330neo to develop a medium- and long-haul network. Philippe Bohn, CEO Air Sénégal, said “Aviation is a catalyst for economic development and this purchase demonstrates Senegal’s ambitions for economic growth in line with the country’s strategy… (Plan Emerging Senegal). The A330neo has proven itself to be the right aircraft, combining low operating costs, long-range flying capability and high levels of comfort.” (Photo Airbus)

About Airliner World
In the January issue of Airliner World, we bid farewell to KLM’s Fokkers, ending a 97-year association between the Dutch flag carrier and the manufacturer, we examine how a partial privatisation could offer Pakistan International Airlines renewed hope for its future, and we go behind the scenes with launch customer Qatar Airways as it prepares to take delivery of its first Airbus A350-1000.
Elsewhere in this edition, we find out Hebridean Air Services has forged a unique and highly valued link with the remote island communities it serves, we find out how Leipzig/Halle has transformed from sleepy backwater to major European cargo hub, and we hear how AeroLink Uganda is playing a quirky but important role in connecting its home market. We also shine the spotlight on Singapore Airlines’ new A380 cabin, and we bring you a selection of photos from NBAA 2017 and from Orly, Paris’ second airport.
Lastly, we bring you our comprehensive coverage of worldwide news, including a full round-up from the Dubai Airshow, plus Embraer eyes an April debut for the E-Jet E2, ATR wins a major order from FedEx, Emirates takes delivery of its 100th Airbus A380, and Boeing delivers the first 737 MAX to China. We also have all our regular sections covering the latest commercial aircraft acquisitions, up-to-date accident reports and developments from the world of aviation training and MROs.
