If boeing offered Delta a smoking deal on some cancelled Max orders....does anyone think we wudnt seriously look at them?
I get all that. But we'd have a mixed fleet regardless of that. I'm just wondering if we did get some MAX aircraft would they be growth (or in leiu of some other future order) or would we have to take it out of existing AB orders?
