I still think they re buying the increased gross weight 330's, they could do some of the DTW and MSP 777 routes. We should find out the end of July. I have no argument with the "I'll believe it when I see it" crowd on this either, we have had our hopes crushed too many times on supposed airplane orders.
Just to pull Carl's chain; unless somebody pays us to take more 747's I think we have all the 747-400's we are going to operate. There is a reason those aircraft are so cheap, you can't give them away.
