Hey, I hope they bring eight extra tires on each flight. Must be fun to land an empty 767. I think they should fill it with Passengers for the max landing weight experience.

Speaking of the 767 training, you guys should see the talk going on in LAN about this:

Airport officials: Plane circling Lansing is part of training exercise | lansingstatejournal.com | Lansing State Journal

Be sure to read the comments!

Very nice Nu. I see those planes in MEM and wonder sometimes what life would be like if that prop failed to feather. They do have a super stretched model out there.

As to Ferds landings, we should be allowed to grade. I still am going to argue this is the 767 Appreciation Video: YouTube - Delta Airlines Advert

There will be a test on this btw: YouTube - Delta through the Decades

Unless the let you near the flight deck it still will not help your landing currency issue.

You're right about that but imagine 200+ reserves calling in sick, on the same day, with back issues after a few bounces....
