BelArg,
I think we have 5 -100's flying, 3-734,000 and 2 -750,000 lb birds.
As for the war, its not an official "WAR" anymore, according to the DOD. Police Action I think.
There are so many facets of the cargo world that make the older planes so attractive. Some economists think in a narrow field, that thinking outside the box(no pun intended) doesn't fit their business plan, and they think flying older planes isn't economical.
Were up to 19 right now. We have CMC FMS's with EHSI's and EADI's.GNSS updating, plus a Litton 92 w/ updating and a Trimble 2101. Our W&B is all computerized as well as our performance. EFB's are on the way as well as electronic Engine instruments for the front and back. Manuels are all on Disc and our weather radar is being updated to overlay on the EHSI's. As far as Classics go, they are pretty cool.
