I show 9 MD10 being delivered, with the 5 DCs either going to conversion or returned to lessor. I also show 11 Busses, 5 new 300s and the rest coverted pax 300s and 310s.
Thanks. You're correct. After checking again, many more Buses are in the pipeline than I thought. Based on the latest update, the actual WB fleet increase from this point on for the year is showing to be thirteen. Many more than I thought.

And, rechecking my information, actually three 200s are scheduled to be retired by the end of the year, and one early in next year. Can't recall why - don't think the 757 is a factor in their cases, though.
