The 763ERs in general can operate ETOPS 180 as can the 764ERs, so the questions is.... what is DL authorised for by the FAA.
Paging ConcordeBoy...
Well, we KNOW that the 763ERs and 764s are authorized and insured for TransPac ETOPS 180. We also KNOW that the 763ERs are authorized and insured for TransAtlantic ETOPS, but probably less than 180.
