From: B-757/767 Left Right Left, aww, who can keep up...
What is 791? I presume a 767, but what's the full tail number?
And it appears I've been backwards on which airplane is going away and when. I though N799AL was to go next week, and N71CX was good to May of this year. But I think it is 71CX that's done this week. She's flying the Pacific run at the moment, while 799 is getting a B-check in MCC. Easy swap-out.

That should be 791AX that had been flying for RIO LINHAS AEREAS.
This was supposed to be one of the -200's that would be going to Jakarta. Do they have a paint shop in Lima? Would be interesting to see who's livery it's in or if it's ghost white.

AFAIK.... 791 will actually become 791CM when it is put into Op Specs instead of going back to 791AX. Also, I was told it was going to LPLA for work and paint. LIM makes much more sense though. If it is going right into service, I wonder if it's going to fly for Tampa Cargo like 316CM currently is.
Plus is the FCOM revision even in place? This plane is EADI/EHSI like 712AX but is the Fast/Slow EADI (712AX was Speed Tape and PEGASUS FMC). I doubt they are going to spend all the time and money to put IS&S in it.
I bet it will be white with a sticker. I guess 761CX is going to emerge from ILN the same way

791 Enroute
791 going to ILN for the conformity checks. Not heard anything about 761 being changed from what it is now. Did hear that 761 is not going to come out due to some wing issue and there is 2 ABX birds ahead of it for the same problem and it can only be worked in one area of ILN so it needs to sit for a while.

I can only assume it has come from SPSO first like every other maintenance flight done. Still haven't got a straight answer if its 791CM or 791AX though. I guess we will find out soon enough.

I was told of this airplane back in late Sept/12, so I can only imagine how much sitting its done.

There is no need for any FCOM change for this plane. It's the same confit as 712 like you said and all our guys did the differences back when we were flying it.
