The -300 was retired in 13/14, but I think the -200 was a while before that.

Yea, but the liveries changed, so I mean you could call them retired but also, you couldnā€™t

I donā€™t think weā€™ll count that one anymore because the airline merged rather than the airline retiring that specific aircraft type as such.

If youā€™re counting ā€œin progressā€ retirements then you should add United and Delta 747-400s to that list, as they will be gone from their fleets within two years.

Southwest just retired their 737-500s I think last month?

When did British Airways retire their 757-200s? Was it before 2011? I remember it being pretty recent.

Have any of the aircraft with Delta/United actually been retired yet? If not Iā€™ll add a date to it.

Yep, that will go on the list.

BA retired their 757-200s in 2010 and handed them over to their partner OpenSkies I think.

Theres around 60 left. I think like 57. I honestly donā€™t think Iā€™ll get to fly one again. Iā€™m going to have to go DL to fly an MD. And honestly Iā€™ve heard they wonā€™t be gone till the beginning of 2018. Donā€™t quote on that though.

Looking on the Wikipedia pages for the two airlines, in the ā€œfleetā€ sections, both say ā€œto be phased out byā€¦ā€ (2017 for Delta, and 2018 for United). I know they have been steadily retiring them for a little while now, I just donā€™t have any exact numbers.
