Ohhhh, lookie here! Mane Aerospace is advertising in Flight magazine for 46 technicians to install Panasonic IFE on aircraft.
A full 20 techs will be stationed in Turkey, while the rest will be stationed in cities that all happen to be part of Turkish Airlines' network.
According to Flightglobal's ACAS database, Turkish holds orders for 12 Boeing 777-300ERs and seven Airbus A330-300s. Turkish is a customer for Panasonic's eXPhone solution.
The 777-300ERs they are getting from Boeing don't have a first class seat. As premium economy grows in prominence, there is some evidence that a death knell is being rung for first class, says Shashank Nigam, the CEO of SimpliFlying, a global airline marketing and branding consultancy. "Look at Turkish Airways. The 777ERs they are getting from Boeing have a three-class setting - business, premium economy and economy. It doesn't have a first class."
