It's also a possibility that this is all due to a 4 month delay from airbus!

I suspect that is the case for the near term deliveries however the delay looks a bit longer then 4 months. Originally they were going to have a couple delivered this spring.

I agree, I have spent plenty of time living on a carrier and my tail is rarely itchy. And I attribute that to the anthrax shots. :)
