They are in TEL and they are being converted - but contrary to popular belief - they have no customer yet (the big rumor here in Canada is that they are for a Chinese customer). There are interested parties, but Guggenheim Aviation doesn't even know what the final cost is yet as they also need 'D' checks - so they aren't taking offers yet. I think the first goes in in March (comes out around Aug) and the second in July (comes out in Nov)

Guggenheim Aviation is basicly an arm (or offshoot) of GECAS, and based in Redmond WA I believe. GECAS owned the aircraft previously.
