Delta also has around 500 pilots who are over 55 with 25 years of service. Which means that they can retire anytime they want to. What do you think they will do if they sence an imminent ch 11 filing? Stick around, I think not ... All of your 777's can be grounded over night with a sudden pilot retirement rush.
The above post from the AA/DL 777 thread intrigued me. How vulnerable is the 777 fleet to a mass exodus of senior pilots? How many 777 Captains do they have? Any ideas what Delta would do if suddenly left sans 777 captains?
