Flying in a few days on LH 754 from FRA to BLR on a 747-8. When I booked a few weeks ago, I assumed that it was a standard 747-400 so it didn't even occur to me to look for First class. However, when I just looked it's not a -400, it's a -8 and it has first class seats (the usual 8 seats at the nose). They appear to only be available as an upgrade (for relatively speaking dirt cheap price of around $750) and are not directly bookable.

Will this be "official" first class or just a first class seat with business class service and amenities, including lounge access? I'm confused.

Anyone getting really long quoted lead times for standard Bete/Exair Spray nozzle products, far and above what the deliveries used to be? I can't find any info as to why...

I've got the most recent software updates by my GHHMax is still occasionally lugging and hesitating from a stop. It is not due to CTA. It feels like its holding the brakes though when it shouldnt be or decided to try to start in 2nd or 3rd gear.

Anyone else having this happen or have any fixes?

thanks
