Jan 9 (Reuters) - Taiwan's Starlux Airlines 2646.TW
has placed an order for five more Airbus AIR.PA A350F
freighters, the European planemaker said on Thursday.
That doubles the initial order Starlux placed last year for
five of the cargo aircraft, Airbus said.
"This second order from this fast-growing airline is another
endorsement of the all-new A350F as the future game-changer in
heavy lift markets," Benoît de Saint-Exupéry, Airbus' EVP Sales
Commercial Aircraft, said in a statement.
Airbus did not disclose the price of the transaction.
