Only 2 problems with your statement:
1. You suspect - Where is any FACTUAL evidence to support your theory?.
2. You believe.... - again lack of any FACTUAL material.
The J model was brought in to replace SOME of the K fleet, and the FACT is ALL of the K's that were due to be replaced by the J's HAVE BEEN replaced. Therefore, as all affected airframes have been retired from service, I put it to you that you are talking out of your 'Tony Blair'.
For once I agree with ABIW.
