Actually, I believe that was the second installment of the deal. I remember the announcement in Dec 2000 I was in AOC and it was a big deal (the announcement)...it was combined with the original MOAB which saw new hires training in the 727 FE position, get MD-11 FO positions in the MD-11 with a one year wait for training. Looks like they were in formal talks in Sep 2000
