Thanks, I remember hearing that FedEx is taking some 757s, but what are the medium-term prospects (3-5 years) for the fleet? I realize long term it is dying, but they aren't going to run a 777 to all those Europe destinations, and the 737 won't make it. Are folks just hanging out there as a transition to the 777 when seniority allows?
