I see your point. No company could ever meet that sort of timeline with a new fleet type. Well, unless you count a company called Atlas Air that did exactly that with the B-767 two years ago! I'm not saying this will happen, but the timing matches the rumors...could we do it? Yes. Will we? Wait for the announcement.
