the 767-200's were a bit long in the tooth
even the most recent (18 yo) a/c BYAA/AB went to the scrappers
BRIF/BRIG and BOPB saw life with Excel Silverjet and Jordan Av.
all were ER and CF6 80 powered but they did not have large forward cargo doors and had little resale in them
configs were 2-4-2 seating and was tight
4 x 763's remain now but only the BY -304 build and not any of the ex AMM or UKL a/c remain
BRS airport once they lose the 757's from there will see more operational difficulties with op'g 737-800 or MAX from there due to runway length and weather issues
