The 742s were all retired by the end of 2009. The two PAX ones did mil charters through Sep ‘09 and the cargo was shutdown in December.
The last scheduled PAX service for them was in 2007. I think it would be tough to give too much credit for those.

These 20 potential orders will be delievred late this decade coupled with the loss of the ER the 350 won't go lower than 5000 seniority.
By 2030 we will retire 3500 pilots. That would put current seniority of 8500 as the plug of the 350A. All 8500 pilots are 35+.
So I don't think we will see 30 year olds in the left seat of the 350 unless we end up 150 350's. If alpa caves on 2 Captains for a 4 man we will not see 40 year Olds in the left seat.

Anyway on topic. The only missing from the CEO talking about the 350s is, "if you sign this deal..."
