80kts,
This is directly from the NNP......
The tentative agreement allows Delta earlier access to an additional 70 76-seat aircraft, but only if they first add to the mainline fleet 88 SNB aircraft (recently identified by the Company as B-717s).*
I don't see where it says ALL 88 SNB aircraft must be delivered before ANY 76 seaters are allowed. It says the company must first add 88 SNB aircraft before they may have access to ALL 70 76 seat aircraft. That is a true statement. In order for the company to have ALL 70 76 seaters, they must first take delivery of ALL 88 SNB aircraft.
I'm sorry for the all caps words. I just feel they're key. Are you seeing different?
