Yes the moderator team has noticed this, and some changes have been made.

Quote: I'm sure it had nothing to do with CO telling UA to pound sand when United first approached them with merger talks. United needed a dance partner and basically did what CO wanted to get the deal done. Tilton said that the 737's weren't fuel efficient, yet the new United operated CO's -500 fleet for nearly a decade.

Funny how as soon as United's Guppy fleet was parked and over 1400 pilots furloughed that a merger was announced.

CO as well parked all 73-500,300 and 76-200 and furloughed in 08. United parked the 73 and furloughed in 08. That is all 2 years before the meger. Every major airline parked jets after 08 because they all were losing money. Your revisionist history is twisted.

When I came back from furlough in 2013 we still had to learn the 737-500 in the sims, but the last one was retired while I was waiting for IOE so I didn’t fly it on line. This was around May 2013. So while all UAL 737’s were retired by 2009, that was not the case with CO 737-500’s. I’m pretty sure the CO 767-200’s weren’t retired until 2013 either, but I’m not certain like I am about the 737-500.

So what your saying is that you never flew a 73-500 or 300 and never seen a 76-200.

Not at all, I flew the 737-300 and -500 at United before I was furloughed in 2008. When I came back on the CO side in 2013 they were still flying the 737-500 (they had not been retired in 2008 as you previously stated). But by the time I got to IOE in May 2013 they had just retired the last 737-500.

I have never flown a 767-200, only the -300 and -400.

So what your saying is that CO didn't retire any aircraft because of the gfc in 08 and 150$ oil. I wonder why they then had to furlough pilots?
but you never flew a 73-500 and 300 or seen a 76-200 when u came to CO in 13.
