Can anyone explain the commercial logic of ordering BOTH the A320neo and 737NG??? The two appear so close that they overlap.
Is it:
To ascertain which performs best, then standardsise on that machine, re-selling the other orders off the production line?
A way of demanding the best unit prices from the competing manufacturers, despite the additional cost of operating two very similar types?
Some form of new financial wizardry that looks very clever today on paper but which result in yet another Ch 11 filing 5 years down the road?
