Where do they intend to place 40 + 20 airplanes?

 

[NEDude]

I would assume in new cities. We have announced 4 new cities so far this year, with plans for one more before the end of the year.

That wasn't his car. Sausage kings take limos!

Also, fake suicides don't make heros of your friends. It just frustrates them and delays the run home.

An MoU... what does that mean? Is that a promise to order the jets without actually having to sign the order?
