I did notice that little gem. This is just a MOU. Nothing is for sure yet which is why they didn’t release the specifics of how many of each variant.
I’m certainly happy about the announcement but I wonder when it becomes a firm order with a delivery schedule.

Even after the order is placed, Airlines can cancel, defer or even sell the plane to another. Unless you see it on the ramp, it can all fall apart.

“Hey, Jamie, it's Ed. So we were pretty thoughtful throughout the course of this order for a variety of things. And as Scott mentioned in his comments, flexibility was a component of our fleet desires going forward and that flexibility went up or down within gauge, and we built a balance sheet to enhance that by the way. So we're very excited about the growth prospects. We feel good about the setup. We have the desired fleet flexibility to move within gauge to get more airplanes that we want, to retire aircraft, to sell aircraft. We have flexibility within the contract as well. So I would say, broadly speaking, I think, we're in a good spot.“
Maybe I should hack this quote up as well to simply say “we are very excited about....prospects”.
