Sure but you are not counting all the group 3 aircraft that have already been parked since the merger. How many 767's and 757's have been parked and replaced with 321's? If you count the historical total group 3+4 aircraft of the combined US Airways and AA fleets at the merger I believe there is a significant drop. But total group 4 has increased. Win some lose some.
