In which case, do future 223s form part of the 80 aircraft mentioned here or not? If so, are they only counting the ones that haven't been delivered? Or were those already covered by some previous announcement and this one presages AC's exercise of some of its options on additional 223s?
I'd think if they are looking at existing fleet then the E75 and CR9? These have the old XM IFEs. Are there plans to update them?
