So thats why they wanted SOC.

You know when I go to the regional forum I kind of want to leave a rope or something here for you guys to pull me back. Just in case I end up getting killed and fall into limbo or something without my totem. But today, I went to somewhere just as bad, airliners.net, and came away with this:

DAL767-400ER (poster, I guess they don't use goofy names there)
Okay, let's see if my count is up-to-date now. So far, we have

16 Delta's own MD-90s
9 ex-China Eastern already in GSO and ATL for modding
3 ex-Hello's owned planes already in GSO and ATL for modding
11 ex-China Southern (don't know about the 2 China-built MD-90s; bought for spares?) soon to be on their way.
These 8 planes (obviously not officially identified, but really, who else could it be?)

That's a total of 47 planes, plus the 16 JAL planes, which will hopefully be made official soon, which would put the total at 63 planes, which is pretty much the minimum fleet number Delta looked for, IIRC.

Now the only ones left on the market are the 11 with the EVA group in Taiwan (not planned for retirement), SV's 29 glass-cockpit birds, and the 5 Lion Air jets.
