Don't forget that the RAF has 9 - they will go on for years if RAF history is anything to go by (Canberras - built in the 1950s - still flying!)

I'm actually flying on one today - DL2083 from ATL - FLL.

Moggie,

Just 8 now with 216, I believe.

Off to do some plane spotting then Guv? Bring me back a nice shiny L-1011 please. I want to start a service between MST and BHX!!

Gov,

See ya at gate 18 in ATL...I'll be there too...Seat 2B...stop and say hello...
