In 17 months you'll see them in a beer chiller near you.

maybe 3 Classics in 2010, and thats generous.
The trick in this mix is that the -400s are positioned, but we're not exactly sure how we're going to deal with the -8s as they come on board.

I'm inthebiz baby!
These numbers are not in Globalnet, and they are from internal working numbers being tossed around in all departments and some from the line.
Just look at the fleet now. 22 -400s: 3 at GSS, 6 at Polar (416 included)
the rest at mainline. The Classics are what are day by day - almost literally.
As customers request the Glass Can instead of the steam gauge, its hard to predict when the last one will leave. Military keeps them up and even some 400s. Like I said, and its a very educated guess, we may have 3 Classics in 2010 at most. And its not just fuel, RNP1, CPDLC, and VDL2 will doom the Classic.

Last group of pilot furloughs was 5/31/09. To date 62 pilots furloughed. STN will be closed 6/30/09 along with the AABO pilot group. Contract negotiations ongoing and the Atlas/Polar seniority list will be merged at the completion/arbitration of the contract.
