Good UPS 747 Rumor
Yesterday just happened to have an FAA guy in the plane and he was worried about getting enough people in the office to manage the new 747-400 program that has been moved forward to this spring. Didn't say where these were coming from, but this differs from the advertised June 2007 delivery date that Brown put out in the official announcement. Any comment?

when i spoke to the person that actually announced the furlough, she said it was just a bad political move from ATL managent and that will never going to happen. (that was on the first day of announcing it). GO FIGURE

It would be rather difficult for UPS to accelerate the 747-400 program. The company just announced the core team of managers, and the search for instructors has just begun with initial selections to be anounce later this summer.
Although we have only announced the purchase of eight new 747-400's, it's common knowledge around here that we will be buying many more 747-400 conversion aircraft. The new aircraft we bought only due to the longer timeframe for delivering converted airframes. All of this is driving the 2007 implementation date.
