Grade 'F' in Maths?

Is there a Ryanair ITK on here who can resolve the following conundrum for us?

The 'Manchester Evening News' has just published an interview with Ryanair's marketing guru, Kenny Jacobs. However, the numbers quoted in the article don't make sense. Mr Jacobs tells the MEN that Ryanair will base two additional aircraft at MAN for Summer 2015. This would imply last year's fleet total (seven) plus two units [7+2=9]. However, the article then goes on to say that the MAN-based fleet will be 7 units this summer.

One of those two statements must be wrong. Either there will be two more aircraft (=9) or there will be 7 based aircraft (= ZERO additional aircraft).

Is anybody here in a position to clarify the correct version for us? Thanks in advance.
