Just a matter of time before they(WY) go widebody again. GF's B763s need being replaced/refurbished. Either way, they will have a good market value in the market. Great machines.

Thats a bit below the belt Mr Wright, give the new F/O's a chance, in time they will find their way to Tagala land, where every body is happy.
Be nice
BP

before they were FO's they could smell Manila from miles away in their ****ty old Honda civics. Won't be hard for them to find manila at all. Only hard to find their way back.

I remember they used to have A310's. Short lived though.

The 767 is an uncomfortable aircraft for long haul operations, unless it is fitted out in low density seating.

Brunei's J cabin is quite nice on the 763.

heard that if WY going to operate B767 they will be on a wet leas for 2yrs ,
probably the current 1st officers in 737 fleet will move to the B767 in 2 yrs time n will leave their captains to fly to the indain subcontinent.
