No, I didn't suggest that. I just don't have access to your company memo and I was hoping to see if a news article had more information like who the customer was going to be. Do you know it these will be brand new 777's? Is it true that Connie owns all of his planes?

I wouldn’t count on them being new. Connie doesn’t buy new planes. Most of the planes in the fleet are owned by Connie. There is at least 1 lease, but it was only because it was cheaper than buying it.

Yes I got it 2 days ago I think? It was sent to all crewmembers.

DHL is the customer I believe.

If you go by the chat in LEJ by the ground crews there, getting 4 of the DHL 777's they ordered, some go to AeroLogic.

Are the 777 proving runs complete with ETOPS?

The loner is flying on the backside of the world right now. They were doing DHL proving runs domestically.

All-in, is there much difference in total pay between 747 and 777 pilots? Can you make roughly the same on both fleets or is there more opportunity to make more money on the 747 fleet because it is a bigger fleet and seems to fly a lot more?
