It will be interesting to see how close they come.

I can't share any other details unfortunately but I can confirm all the remaining MAXs have 92xx Line Numbers, which hopefully means they're going to be not that far away (currently the last of the 89xx aircraft are being built). Three of them also have sequential serial numbers, a first for VA's MAX fleet. Looking forward to having more of them in Australia as they are awesome planes.
