On another note, the last A320 that came from China Southern took 10 months to be converted.
An article I read said that airbus can crank out 44 A320s a month. It takes us 10 months to refurbish one? I know we’re not a manufacturer and that these airplanes may be rode hard and put away wet and all but sheesh. 10 months? Sounds like either we’re not really interested in getting these things on line or somebody is taking a few too many trips to the ole blue room.
