Default Hernan's new goal

For every new delivery of a Southwest 737-700 to the fleet, Hernan has to go out and purchase one new Gemini 737-700 model for his collection. This must continue until his collection is the same number as the Southwest fleet.

Hey, don't knock the Southwest fleet-building thing until you've tried it. So far, I've only got six 737-700s, with 12 more on the way (including Corn Dog One) and 11 737-200s on order. Another 325-350 models or so, and I've got myself the entire fleet!

hernan, do you know how many 737-200s Southwest plans on keeping in their fleet, or how much longer they'll be around? I know N96SW is the only one in their new paint scheme. Are any others going to be painted in it also?

Thanks,
Rick

All I know is 3 more 732 are schedule for retirement this year. I dont think the company will paint more -200s. they just want to replace the entire fleet with -700s.
