Description

Varig was the first operator in the southern hemisphere of the Boeing 777, taking delivery of two GE90 powered 777-200ERs in 2001. Varig later operated six other 777s, but these first two were returned to GECAS in 2006 during the financial turmoil and later bankruptcy of Varig. These two 777s have now been retired from AeroMexico and are being scrapped.
