There are more than 2 sUA non-p.s. 757s left in the fleet ... maybe that issue is that they don't make their way to ORD much anymore. Plus, sUA 757s fly some of the EWR p.s. routes. Interesting ...

Can sCO pilots fly sUA 757s now? If so, that could be the reason for the p.s. switch.

I asked him that question in reverse yesterday. Could he fly a CO757? He said he would be sent for a 5 day training class and then he could. He doesn't want to change base to EWR this late in his career.

Capt. Denny's March schedule has been updated in Post #1.

He will not be trained on the Continental 757 fleet and his remaining months will be on UA 767 metal overseas.

Captain Denny's April schedule is in flux right now. He has only one scheduled flight and that may be changed. I will update you when I have further information.

We are closing in on his final flight. His 65th Birthday is June 5th.

Did he get to charter a 757 for his last flight?

No. The cost could not be negotiated to what he considered a reasonable amount.

Hoping against hope that my one 767 flight in April is his--it's ORD-IAH on a pmUA--so there is hope to see Capt. Denny for a 3rd and final time (as a pilot).
