-We have 50 or so ERs and we may be down to 15 in 5 years. They are coming East for now
-The A330 is an ER killer.
-The plan is to replace the round dials/gauges with an integrated ADI and different ND
I’d love for them to do the last one, but as of now the adi and nag dispalays are being replaced with lcds that look the exact same and the airspeed gauge is also being replaced with a lcd that will display the same analog airspeed gauge
as of last week we were only losing a handfull of ERs in the next 5 years
