That is my concern. How many 76 seaters on slated for delivery and what is the replacement schedule on the 50 seaters (is it one 76 seater for one 50 seater, 1 for 2, etc, etc). Always be cautious when simple stats with no supporting details.

They don't have any 76 seaters slated for delivery, they are at the maximum already.

This is not mainline capacity. The decline is purported to be in the DCI lift sector. We are to grow 3% annually starting in Jan 2010.
