GeneralLee was, to quote Mona Lisa Vito, “dead on balls accurate.” Well done.
But the very first delivery won’t even begin to be seen in a AE for a bare minimum of 21-24 months. Any movement between now and then is for previous orders.
It’s great news, though. 20 -1000’s with options for another 20 will be big.

You're correct on the 21-24 months, but IMO that's not a very long time. Furthermore we still have a good amount of 339 and 359s still being delivered. Can't wait to see the 350-1000 to arrive at Delta though. It's a great looking jet and very spacious flight deck. The Triple Bogey maingear returns!

Agreed on GeneralLee. What an excellent resource for the forum.

EB said on the Earnings Call the 350-1000's are "20% more fuel efficient than the 767-300's they are replacing..."
In addition, GH just said that the 767-300's will definitely all be gone this decade, on a pretty "consistent" decline. He also seemed to say the -400 would be gone too, with it leaving international service in '28, and gone by 2030, but it was hard to follow that poorly worded question. That would be news.
