The 787 continues to be a hot seller as well. Ed has said before that the most important consideration when placing an order is, unsurprisingly, price. And Delta likes paying peanuts for planes. Mgt seems unfazed by the potential delivery timeline of any potential order negatively affecting us by multiple airlines placing significant orders for the exact aircraft we claim to be looking at. I wouldn't put it past them to continue flying the 7ER fleet for another decade and do the same with the 330 fleet if they dont get the price they want.
