Both but the aircraft needs probably will not include the Queen of the Sky. To much gas needed. Have you seen any new 4 engine aircraft? Oh they will keep some as there is a smaller market but as much as I loved the Jumbo, reality tells me the days are gone. Purple knew that and could have bought quite a few for their expanings fleet but preferred out of the box 777s and 767s. They are looking for replacements for the MD11 and everything points to A350s or 777x aircraft. Mr. Smith wants an all Boeing fleet and although he is not in charge now will probably get his way.
