Most of our pilots were experienced 747-200 pilots and engineers. I even heard from a source that a few were ex Air Force 1 Pilots and/or engineers. I doubt the FAA would trip up those guys on Proving Flight simulations! My source also stated that the pilots thought N706BL was a smooth flying plane and enjoying flying her. The funny part about how the FAA works is an Airline could still buy N706BL and with a few minor landing gear updates fly passengers on her without a mini evac ever being done. Just need to be certified to fly 747-200's already. Makes a lot of sense right? Lol
