According to the proposal records I could gather up from another source, copy and paste the meat of it only, in small chunks for easy reading, the order was for 80 units + 16 spares. If the proposal was re-worked, and finalized with adjusted numbers, I could not be sure on that point, however, based on the information posted, no matter who got the order out of 5 vendors, it was for 96.

Why would Panasonic, with 60% market share, even bother...lol.

And little ole EDIGYBABY beat them silly, and made the sale.

BADA BING!!!

Also note:

All these "small airlines" of which there are 30 or so named as customers/partners, ended up being a plus in the overall analysis, as shown as strengths. Being able to provide references of satisfied customers, is a selling tool all by itself.

WHO SAYS FRED IS NOT A CLOSER???
