Yes I believe that this is a very fluid change. I think the planes will be subbed as needed, but remember only 29 were supposed to be parked at the end of summer, then it was goosed up to 97 ish. So far (IIRC) there are only 3 that have been parked at GYR... Even if UA is able to park one (logistically) every 3 days that still means 737's will be flying well into 2009.
