They will be entered into looooong term lease, probably much longer terms than 717. So how does it put us at an advantage in the long term? Do you think the company isnt gonna borrow from the playbook and ask us for scope trade for a few shiny nickels?
Who says they will be in long term leases?

Long term leases are what got DAL in trouble with RJ's in the first place!
