It might be in RME getting ready to be returned to the lessor, which was that last management quote that I heard.

Of course that does not mean that Atlas and the lessor won't cut a new lease tomorrow, especially since the market for BCFs is dead.

To keep track of rumors regarding aircraft all you have to do is watch HAWK. For instance, where did the 767 VIP bird go? It's no longer there.

We flew golfers in it from Illinois to England... It's sitting at the British Open for 7 days.

Speaking of which, that's getting really old really fast for most of us. I'm giving up at least 2 days every month getting to/from CVG on a day off just to deadhead, and it's especially bad for those of us who are constantly stuck with the 60-day split lines.
