The question is, how many from the 200 are hard orders and how many are options :-?

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

And how many will actually get delivered.  Rumor is the carrier that made the order is in trouble anyway.
