2014- 614
2015 - 667
AS of 30 September we had the following number of 717s and 737-900s in service:
24 737 -900s in service
40 717s
So it looks the 594 was at or was near a mainline low in 2009, and the 667 number will include all or most of our orders through 2015 less the aircraft that we plan on parking.
