It was stated at official meetings, and on numerous ocassions. Logic would dictate that is what is planned to happen.

Specifically that 3209- ~3249 will be replaced by the 739 lift.

It's subject to change, but that dodging the issue is the highest liklihood for how it will transpire.

While aircraft are being replaced, it should not be discounted that in the same breath the mainline fleet is planned to grow from around 720 to 796. If you discount one, you have to discount the other.

You're going to need to be more specific.

Stated to whom? At what meetings? People run rampant with unsubstantiated rumors on this thread, & it results in more silly rumors. That is a general statement, & not directed at you.

It's quite possible that 3209-3249 are parked, but there has not been any official statement released to the pilot group. That's been my entire point.

80 & Johnso,

The force is strong amongst the both of you!
