If all the 767s go away, then training has a problem because then the 767 sims can't be used. Right now, 7ER pilots can use any sim for training events.

if the 767s go away so does a good chunk of ER pilots. Don’t we have 5 757 sims? I think the 737 only has 6 (5 in ATL + 1 in SLC) and we have more than twice as many 737s as 757s

Oh, it’ll be affected. When Delta retires the ER from passenger service, do you actually think they’ll stand up an entire category of pilots, instructors, FA training curriculum, additional resources, etc to service a minuscule fleet of privately owned 757 that do a very small amount of flying compared to the normal operation?

I swear 767 sims feel like a myth to me, most of my IQ was in 757-4 and every cq has been 757-1. Normally I’d never care about sim numbers but those ones are something else.

If all goes perfectly well, the first 321neo charter ship could be in service in about 2 years.
