no 777 for gf pilots

just when the excitement is at it's peak with a new type, here's another rumour to really take the wind off your sails.
wonder why it's taking so long for them to publish the names of the applicants for fleet transfer? gf seem to be getting cold feet about training their own guys for the b777.
in fact, the b777 is taking an early beating with big losses already registering so early in the piece.
of course gf has never had the big purses of the neighbours so any loss is a big loss. pity that they need nerves of steel every time they're developing a market or type.
