Sorry, Delta has hundreds of rolling options that can be converted to airplanes at any time. In fact, we just converted two options for 777's for 2010. The firm orders mean nothing in view of Delta's current contract with Boeing. You and I have both seen firm orders canceled, sold, delayed, and transferred in our careers. Trying to imply they produce real pilot jobs is not credible. I believe airplanes are bought when I see real pilots sitting in the cockpit. Not dreaming about it.
