On the other hand, we're opening a KIND domicile for the 767.......heard this from the guy that WASHES the crew bus......

Uhhh....Puttin' cans of stuff in 'em and then flying 'em to places like OAK. ;)

We currently fly OAK-NRT and KIX-OAK but those are usually MD-11s. Maybe an equipment sub? They seem to show up in new places now and then and surprise us too.

OK, I thought maybe it was to get the ground folks familiar with it possibly. Was just wondering how the 777 flying has been affected by the downturn.

In the 777 Oct bidpack, there are oak anc, oak nrt and oak mem trips.

Interesting that a few weeks ago Fred and some other heavies took some huge bonuses...Interesting in light of "poor" numbers.

Predictions:

Stock will drop to low 80s
Lots of buying takes place
Cost cutting Express reorg measures implemented
Stock goes back up....

Oh yeah, 4a2b comes back...
