These charges reflect the Company’s decision to park three DC9-30 aircraft permanently, consistent with the Company’s ongoing review of its aircraft fleet plan in conjunction with its overall route structure and capacity requirements. The first quarter 2007 impairment charges were recorded as reorganization expenses.

So they actually wrote off 13.3 mio$ for retiring 3 DC9 which are supposedly written off twice over after 38 years of operation?
