Really Unitedabx——“Beyond 55 extensions are here”.....where ya been? Extensions past 55 were offered and taken by many many people as far back as when we had the bloody 747-200F. This is NOT a new idea and many FO’s were delayed before.
They extended a 777 STC last year on Cos99 past 55.....
That Horse bolted more than 20 years ago mate.....
A lot of us also lost out a lot when they started ASL in 1997 ( approx ) and employed a lot of DEC’s to fly the Freighter.
