Yeah that’s true, but with the whole EV movement and Biden’s Master’s doing everything they can to raise the price of fuel, I see the 50 seater dying much sooner than later. The keystone pipeline is just the beginning. UA has a history of pulling the plug in an instant. So when/if it happens, I doubt there’ll be any warning.
