Hong Kong Air to buy freighters?

Hong Kong-based Hong Kong Airlines - part of the city's second-largest carrier group - may go public.

Its president, Yang Jiang Hong, also said the airline may place orders this year for six Airbus SAS A330 freighters.

The carrier plans to start passenger and cargo flights to Taipei in November if rights are granted.
