Ughh hope it’s a bad rumor. 200 of one type, if there ever is a grounding (777PW DC-10 and I believe 787 after it came on line) we be screwed.
The 787 isn’t a 777! Doesn’t ride as well especially in turbulence and it’s smaller airplane. But at least the 777-300 is relatively new and has lots of years left vs 777-200’s.
What about more 777-300’s production line still open and I’m sure we could negotiate favorable prices?
