Yeah, theoretically, you're probably right. But, let me say what I really wanted to say first...I don't think we get close to 20k. Delta, and Ed more specifically, has never been pre-occupied with the desire to the biggest carrier. Given our track record of "smart" growth, ie slow, intentional growth, if the day comes we reach 20k it's much farther out than 2030ish.

Just my uninformed reading of the tea leaves.
