Came across this at work :)
Throws a spanner in the works for my work at the moment as have had to change alot of forward planning :(
Happened yesterday i believe

Unfortunately all is not well for any additional HKG/FRA space during the requested period. I have attached the reply received **** (Route manager)

We have a B747 freighter (B-HVY) U/S in FRA requiring an Engine change. As always "Murphy's Law" prevails n the spare engine is nowhere handy like PAR or BRU or MUC it is in HKG !!!! Thus Keith's
comment re losing 10 Main Deck positions on CX067.11Dec HKG/FRA. They need this to move the Engine
plus all the other Bits n Pieces to FRA

Consequently several HKG/Europe Freighters will be cancelled this week leaving us extreemely short for
any additional cargo capacity
