The country of Cameroon has ordered 2 Boeing 787 Dreamliner planes for its new national airline Camair, according to a report by Reuters.

‘Camair, established to replace now defunct Cameroon Air, began providing international routes to Paris and the Chadian capital N’Djamena as well as a number of domestic destinations last year.

“The procedure is already very advanced and a delivery date has been fixed… The aircraft will enter service in 2015,” the state-owned company’s commercial director Alphonse Bea said in a statement.’

The reported purchase price is $429 million.

      If your talking about what I said, all I was meaning by “interesting…” is that I would have not expect a nation like Cameroon to have the money to buy 2 new Boeing B787-8 Dreamliner’s but I support there choice 100%.
