Originally posted by flyguy View PostSIA would have taken into account the 787s and 737Max issues, but would be reducing its A330s as planned. This is because of the deliveries of new aircrafts as within the year from now, there will be 12 A350s deliveries which meant one delivery every month and another 3 787s will join the fleet too. Hence even if currently 2 of its 787s are grounded due to the RR engines issues, the planned reduction of its older aircrafts would continue.
The presentation slide just didn't get corrected before release. The planned withdrawals are now back on schedule (e.g. 9V-STV).

Last Tuesday while landing on 20R i saw a 772 which was stripped of titles (and 2 other 772s parked facing each other). I assume this 772 is SQJ.
Yesterday while landing on 20C, i clearly saw a 777 in the hanger with its titles removed too. I couldn't tell which type of 777 it was, unfortunately.
Any thoughts?

the one in the hanger could be either SRP or SRQ... both have been out for awhile and apparently going to NokScoot.
hmm...but titles removed...i'd think if SRP/Q are going to NokScoot it should be a paint job, not titles removed?
but anyway, on the right corner looks like another 772 in the hanger still with the titles. perhaps that could be SQM. surely SQM will be one of the later ones to be retired.

There will be a number of 77Ws that will continue to fly till at least 18 years old - just like some of its 772s as it will take another 5 years before all the new 777X be delivered and with some delays with the new engine, SQ's first 777X will likely be delivered sometime in 2022 instead of 2021.
