We have 2 of the 28 firm orders delivered already. We will have 4 by the end of this year, with 18 scheduled for delivery in 2005, and 6 more until may of 2006. We also have options for 49 more. Of the first 28, 18 are leased and 10 are being purchased.
Deliveries will continue under all circumstanses unless airbus and the creditors decide to stop them, ala usair and the emb-170's and crj-705's. I wouldn't worry about that just quite yet. There is no reason to believe that will happen anytime soon.
