LH and CLX seem well positioned to take advantage of the sky-rocketing cargo rates in Europe as of late. These are 747-8 operators. Wonder if Delta regrets dismantling the cargo fleet they inherited from NWA?
Seems since ANA and United are members of the Star Alliance, these two perhaps thought no big deal if they flew together. ANA U.S. departures will use UA gates just like Lufthansa does.
After watching the video, does it seem taxi speed coming into the gate area was a bit brisk? May be a contributor along w/obviously not following the taxi-line.
Disturbing pattern of behavior. Guessing these aircraft weren't acquired from other carriers and we're talking about ONE type of aircraft. Yesterday's mistake is tomorrow's fashion !!!
Todays ATC towers are spectacular! I've had the pleasure to visit the towers at DCA, MSP and ORD back in the early 80s. The old radar room at the base of old ORD tower was like a dark, secret bunker. Also toured centers at ZMP, ZAU and ZDC. The controllers and supervisors at all the above were very gracious and I appreciated the time they afforded me!
