The recently filed 10K attracted attention because of the MAX 10 delay and interest in securing A321neos to fill the airline’s fleet plan gap. Here’s the key table from the document.
United Airlines 10K
The table shows the airline planned on taking 80 MAX 10s this year. That is a significant number of aircraft, roughly one every five days.

Then the data bug got me, making me a curious Avgeek seeking data-driven logic. Also, I appreciate conversations with smart people from whom I learn so much. Summary: I am very fortunate to work with and converse with great people.
