In other news, DAL didn't park any more DC-9s in the fourth quarter, they're still at 24, so we'll have to wait and see how long it takes for those to leave... Mainline is now down to 707 aircraft, approx. 50 aircraft less than when DAL and NWA merged, nearly four years ago.

I think the magic number is around 767 mainline A/C. You would need more than 24 DC-9s to get you there since the new 737s are replacement aircraft.
