<< grounding its fleet of 15 MD-11 aircraft, and= replacing them on international flights with smaller planes normally used=20 domestically. >> Won't this result in a less comfortable, and less desirable (to the high paying psgr especially )product? Wouldnt doing just the opposite be logical-to attract the psgrs iso trying to make their trips even more miserable and driving them into the arms of the competition-esp on international routes. You gotta be real stupid to fly on a Delta B757 when you could pick a British B747 or similar..Even at their best-Delta is no prize furshur. Dennis
