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.
My point is up to 3 months ago such extensions were not on offer. Some guys approached th company to extend and were told no. Now this has changed and the company is approaching the pilots.
