That's the $64K Question.

On last Friday co-worker Jeff was at financial conference and stated:

"Fleet count to remain flat over next five years"

FWIW, the audio recoding and powerpoint, where there above quote is a verbatim copy of a bullet point, is available on the UCH Investor website.

Is he talking about the ~700 aircraft mainline fleet or the ~1200 aircraft "United/UAX" fleet? Or does is he just saying what he thinks the market wants to hear today knowing full well that the "official position" can change anytime due to market conditions???

Hmmm.....
