Yah, thats what was suggested. I'd take the upgrade on the 200 and be quite happy.

But I live in my rv and have no life, so this will be a step up

Does anybody know what became of Penn Stohr, and Bob Chapman? I recall Bob Chapman being referred to as Bobby Beano.

Not so fast. My first choice is Classic Captain JFK. Where are all of these -400's I have been hearing about for the last three years?

Good for you. I didn't say ALL felt that way. Quite a few have said they would not go back to the classic or wanted to get off the classic ASAP. Their loss is other's gain. (You) As I said, the key is getting 400s.
Penn Stohr and Bobby Beano are retired.

The same place all the -400's I've been hearing about since I was hired, I figure.

Evergreen WAS operating 3 -400's, the LCF's. Now Evergreen is operating 1 -400, an ex-Singapore bird. Wasn't a second -400 coming for the Saudia contract this year? Didn't Dell make a down payment on some Air France -400's back in 2009? Or maybe the JAL -400's, yeah, we're getting some of those, I heard.

'Public Enemy' said it best - "Don't believe the hype!"
