Two classes of airline that can now contemplate much moremodern equipment than they could a few years ago are the British independents and the US local service carriers. Ozark's order forfive BAC One-Elevens, is not yet firm, but several other US local service carriers are interested in the type. British United, besidesordering ten One-Elevens, have also ordered four VClOs. The Caravelle order book has more than doubled since the lastshopping list, and includes the first of perhaps several orders from US domestic carriers. It has not grown as fast as had been hoped(particularly in respect of the GE-powered version) and the French Government has underwritten production up to 200 to keep up themomentum of deliveries. Other French types such as the Super Broussard will surely appear in the next shopping list. The tradi-tional American reluctance to buy non-American equipment is, it seems, crumbling, as is testified not only by United's Caravelleorder but by the keen interest already expressed by US operators in the One-Eleven, even though deliveries will not start until 1964.Airlines the world over, it seems, are no longer prepared to accept that virtually all their aircraft must come from the US and Britain,Totals quoted in this shopping list include both aircraft lost in accidents and any aircraft ordered to replace them: totals maynot always be the same as the number of aircraft currently operated.
