I doubt you will see DAL order another 76 seat jet.
Question, would we want used 764s? According to folks at CAL they were disappointed to find the 764 had the same total operating costs as a 777.
Not sure if thats true and I'm not sure if by "total" they meant the rent cost plus doc's or just the doc's.
But I sure would like to get them anyways if they're unloading them. Sure there are strings attached to any good deal they offer us, eh?
And just maybe a 744BCF?? I've got to believe we can find something to do with just a few of those!? Or isn't those fat 747s carrying the 787 fuselages out of CHS a contract deal? As in they, I think Evergreen?, contract with airlines to fly them? Not sure, I could easily research it but my to do list is not done and wife is 10 minutes away... HA HA!
