Vulcan B757 Sold!

[Spooky 2]

Anyone know where this airplane is going to wind up?

 

[RubberNeck]

How do you that???

 

[Spooky 2]

That's a simple answer. Vulcan put out out an email to all flight ops personnel that said that N757AF had been sold. Just wondering who the buyer is?

I would bet it went to somebody in a turbin.......

I suspect you are right.

Maybe google bought it.

They'll probably replace it with a 763. Penis envy at this level is rampant... TC

Well they are going to need something soon to tote around the Jail Blazers in....

That's no problem as they still have the dedicated team Boeing, N756AF for the team travel.

What was the second 757 used for?

 

[RubberNeck]

A very nice traveling hotel on wings

Anyone herd of the status of Google's B757? They bought that thing a LONG time ago and you never hear anything about it. I don't think they even have it yet.

It was a 767.

The Vulcan 757 deal cratered this week. The buyer brought a team to BFI to inspect it and walked away from the deal. Rumor has it there is another buyer in the wings.

Google does not own any airplanes period!

I trained with a retired DAL 767 about a year ago at FSI ILM. He was in G5 recurrent. He told me that he worked for Google and that they were operating a G5 until the 767 was ready.

The WSJ confirmed this in their article on the Google 767, they also mentioned that the 767 was to be used for the Google employees. The article also mentioned that they had 2-G550's on order. This is also what the DAL 767 pilot told me.

G4G5, you need to read my words carefully. Google does not own or operate any aircraft......period. The WSJ article that you mentioned was full of errors and ommissions and the ownership of the GV's or any B767 aircraft is only but one of many published stories that are false or misleading. The principals may own aircraft outright, but they are not corpporate property and they cannot be billed back for corporate use. I know this is confusing to some, but there is a very distinct difference and corporate governance is critical to setting the record straight. I also doubt that any fromer Delta pilot said he "worked for Google" as that is simply not true, unless of course he was the night watchman. I think you get my drift.

Now back to the Vulcan B757. I heard it was going to be crewed by a company out of Montreal that supplies a lot of crews for the Bombardier fleets. Any ideas?

There I go again flying with my imaginary friends.

Hold that thought as your now getting my drift.
