I'm still greatly confused regarding the NW 757-5500 series planes.
I'm aware 5501 and 5502 have been updated up-front to work with DL's systems and work will continue on the remaining operating 5500's...but none of these planes have received paint or interior mods and apparently there are no plans to do it in the future.
So why is DL spending the money to upgrade the cockpit if there is no future for them? NW just sent 4 to Marana (MZJ) earlier this month. The most consistent rumor I've heard is the 757-5500 won't fly past mid-late 2010.
Anyone know anything more concrete than what's out there?
