For now, they "claim" that nothing will change and OAI will continue to operate as normal. That press release does seem to have them drooling over the 777s.
I guess the good news is, for years people said the problem with OAI was that it was privately owned and that when the old man died, the business would go away. At least for now, that fear can be put to rest.
