Saw a posting from iAero saying that they are looking for 767 pilots. Are those frames on property yet?

Last I heard one was in Europe, they’re pushing to get them crewed quick so I’m assuming things are happening quick.

Seems like it! Hoping it works out!

Are they not crewing the 67 internally? Or can they not find current 37 guys/gals to go to the 67?

There’s a bid out for CA/FO for CVG and GSO. But I think they’re trying to compliment with 3 street FOs since we can’t afford to pull more 737 pilots out.

Exciting news. How many are rumored to be on property?

That rumor first reared it’s ugly head 5-6 years ago?
There’s also Eastern 3.0 with 76’s.
At least used to be pre Covid.
