If we don't get the desired outcome, those 757s will be approved for heavy checks and returned to service. In an ideal scenario, we expect to receive 18 MAX10s by the end of 2027, assuming they can overcome the HUD hurdle.

Are we really gonna delay the airplanes for the HUDs? Maybe it wont matter, since by next quarter the date will have shifted from Q1 2027 to Q2 2027.

Or we get the 757’s back and get the Max’s too. Seems like the wrong time to be retiring anything.

One of the big drivers for the 75/76 fleet is the lack of NPS rating and efficiency. We all know Delta is an NPS-driven airline.

The last two times I parked next to a 757 at the gate, one kept being delayed for MX, three mechanics were in the wheel wells wiping something down and trying to fix something. The other was delayed 7 (!) hours... I bet those customers did not rate us highly..

Interesting I was at AS and found the opposite. The straight wing 900’s flew nicer then the 9ER’s albeit the yoke was as loose as a 1960 Chevy pickup. The MAX was the tightest from my experience as well as everyone I talked to on the line and training department. The -700 was everyone’s favorite particularly the freighters. I always could notice a difference going between a 9ER and the 9. Even with trips where’d you’d fly almost every variant. Maybe it’s placebo but from everyone I talked to while I was there they seemed to come to the same conclusion.
