The first airplane was ex US Airways. Half dozen or so from them, a couple of China Southern and a lot from Charter Operators in Europe, places that most of us haven't heard of. A handful from each various company.
We have the first Pratt airplane flying as of this month, not sure where it is from, haven't even seen it.
I am fairly certain we are getting some from British Airways.
