hi ed, can you divulge which and how many aircraft will be leaving the fleet. ie dc9-30/40 and other types?

We will be retiring the DC9-30s/40s over the next 18 mos. We have no other plans to retire any additional aircraft. We're hoping to see improvements in the economy over that timeframe and will need all the aircraft we own to generate a premium share of revenue.
