GOL has 2 767s. 2. And they are transferring control of them to Delta. The only thing they have left is 737s. I guess they can fly 737s between the US and Brazil, but that defeats the whole purpose. This is set up much like the Virgin Blue deal. They fly domestically, (cabotage anybody?) within Brazil and feed our international flights. More pax on DL metal means more frequencies, which means more crews needed.
