Direct says no way. if the contract said 300s or 500s, then no way Pace wins this.
And my high-up buddies @ MBDA said that it is in the contract. MBDA had to pay the fuel cost, which is why they were upset over the -200 as the fuel burn is significantly less on the -300s and -500s (well, should be about the same, same motors, right?).
