It would be nice to see an additional 30+ 767's in the short/mid-term (beyond those already announced) as well as another 15-20+ heavy lifters. The lack of short term additional -400's may give some credence to the Transmile MD rumor which seems to have gone into recession. Or maybe DHL will be handling all of our international lift from now on.
As much as i hate to say it but your last comment about dhl may not be all wrong.
