Question FDX - CDG FDA opening soon?

There is a big difference between the recent messages we have recently received.

In his "Continued Management in Changing Times" message, PC stated "Future CDG FDA possibilities will be evaluated at a later date".

In the latest Chairman's message, he stated "Barring an international economic disaster, HKG will grow quickly and CDG will open as soon as possible".

They seem to have a difference of opinion on if and when CDG will open. PC makes it seem like "Yeah, we'll think about opening the FDA down the road". DW makes it seem like "It's just a matter of time before CDG opens". (Maybe right after we get our laptops)

What do you think?

I think when we have our hands on 30 or more FAA approved 757 freighters it might just happen. Aircraft are the LIMFAC right now, not people.
