Nothing could be further from the truth.
There are two 767s, one 747 and more to come. Airlines are in a damned if you do, damned if you don't position. Move too fast and you are accused of failing to plan for the issues that will undoubtedly come up with the new system. Move "too slow" and you are accused of failing to plan, accused of rethinking the whole project and now even accused of collusion with a competitor.
You guys (and gals) are a tough crowd to please.
