Not saying they'll do it, but certainly possible given how many options we have. By the time the last 787-10 (or 9) is delivered from the Firm orders, our original 787's will be close to 10 years old. If we're still dealing with engines issues from RR by then, and have been unable to retire the 772's then I see it as a definite possibility. But that's just my own speculation.
