Evergreen updates?

[pilotgolfer]

What does the current fleet consist of, including the LCF?

APC says 9 -200s and 4 -LCFs. Evergreen is getting 3-6 400s this year but I'm not sure if they are for growth or replacement of 200s.

Just heard 2 of the 400s will be replacements for classic 747-200 going to the bone yard. It would take someone at the very top going away before we get 6 400s on the property. The hotel and water park come first.

They come first until September... after that, WHO KNOWS.

Ohh, the 3 BCF's WERE supposed to replace the 3 JT9 powered SF's.

One just got a new skin, so that POS is gonna be around for a little longer.

Thanks for the update, glad to see that you guys getting some more 400's

good thing we are getting more 400's cause atlas is going to be getting 4 LCF's come sept!

Where did you hear that? Did Boeing cancel the contract with Evergreen?

 

[tubineotter]

just doom and gloom rumors. the contract is up for review every 5 years. evergreen has done a stellar job with the LCF. But its hard to say with boeing. Atlas was in the running initially. just fishing for info from atlas crews.

Doom and gloom keeps us going I guess..If we get some 400's then I can have the doom and gloom guys doing the AMC flying also.

Have they pulled it SAFELY out of the hangar yet? That task seems to be beyond JFK maintenance's capability.
