I agree.

Somewhat more likely that Delta would order more T7s upon bankruptcy exit to supplement their current fleet and orders, and because you can get a T7 a lot quicker than a 787. Or even an outside shot at another 767 order, which would enormously please Boeing.

If the international push continues, Delta will likely need more widebody lift.
