So on the question of new tails, I saw this in American Shipper today in an article discussing Maersk's deal with Amerijet to run some 763 factory-Fs that Maersk just bought from Boeing (that had been destined for a Chinese operator and not taken up).
"In November [Maersk] engaged Wilmington, Ohio-based Air Transport Services Group (NASDAQ: ATSG) to provide and operate three 767-300 freighters under a long-term lease. An ATSG subsidiary is expected to begin carrying out dedicated transport for Maersk on key U.S.-China routes in the second half of this year."
I haven't heard anything about which carrier will be operating these tails; sounds like some fun work if ABX can get them.

Unless of course your idea of fun is doing walkarounds wearing a full hazmat suit, being locked inside a hotel room with a guard outside and only eating the "food" they provide, being arrested and put to prison for 2 weeks for a false positive test that they mandate, and allowing the Chinese government a huge chunk of access to your personal history in the visa application process.
And I haven't even started talking about the Chinese ATC...

The Amerijet deal represents Maersk’s second initiative to access the U.S. market. In November it engaged Wilmington, Ohio-based Air Transport Services Group (NASDAQ: ATSG) to provide and operate three 767-300 freighters under a long-term lease. An ATSG subsidiary is expected to begin carrying out dedicated transport for Maersk on key U.S.-China routes in the second half of this year.

Honestly, I hope ABXs work rules are good with how China is these days. Better pay a huge premium for that garbage when you dont have proper rest facilities on board.
