Interesting fleet. The loss of this will leave a big hole in the fleets capability. Be interesting to see if they replace the airframe with something of the same size.

In the current climate I am sure there will be some cheap 757/767 going spare.

Should be preserved not scrapped. Could a space be found for it at Pima?
