Austrian Airlines is ending its “Prachter” operation (passenger aircraft used as freighters). Two B777s registered OE-LPA and OE-LPC with removed passenger seats and thus increased cargo capacity formed the backbone of the cargo operation. The B767 fleet also carried out cargo-only operations.

Does it mean switching to (e.g.) B787-9 or unifying the fleet to 772-only?
