IMHO earlier would be a better result, although the headlines might not be as big.

Meanwhile, some might recall I reported on a $150 Billion dollar plus acquisition by our nations frenemies in the Middle East ... Here's the Boeing pitch to the them. Observe the route network.
Nice plane. I would prefer to fly it for Delta.

Why would Delta order any "super premium" widebodies when the business plan is clear: codeshare with foreign 777/A380 "partners," and feed them with 717's and 737's. This is the future. The 10 330's will be the last widebody order for a long time. We fly airplanes to the boneyard (not that there's anything necessarily wrong with that, since we're making money hand over fist,)
Of course, I've been told I'm a pessimist.
I prefer a pessimistic optimist.
