DC-9-5o's 34
Total 67
Retirements planed in the 4 quarter 9.
Total 58

I do not know if all the retirements occurred. I do know that we started the year with 100 nines. Just a few years ago NWA had 180 nines. If they are not being retired where are they going!!!!!
Sailling,

You can't go from a statement of fact that we ended the year with 58 DC-9's to "I don't know if all the retirments occured." You habe to qualifiy your remarks with something like, "The planned to have 58 DC-9's" or "The last I saw, they had 67 DC-9's and they were planning on parking 8 more" or "I really don't know how many DC-9's we have, I'm just typing without researching." That way people can take only those statements with a grain of salt. If you don't, then people will take EVERYTHING you say with a grain of salt. Hell, maybe even the whole shaker.
