Thanks, George!

The way I read that (and I'm very tired... so I could very well be wrong) is that there is no number of small narrowbodies required except the ratio. Is this NNP misstating that all 88 have to be on property prior to the acquisition of the first?

I'm intrigued as to where the 88 number comes from as a trigger...

(cleaned up your quote to take the line numbers out)
