Quoting tb727 (Reply 7):
Connie doesn't buy planes to sit on the ground. Only a few will fly, I'd imagine maybe 5 or 6, the rest will be donors.
N623US and N624US are 31 year-old pax planes (the two retired last year), so they´ll be for spares.
N616US and N619US are even older, almost 35 years old and well above 100.000 hours, I guess these two will also be parts donors.
N629US and N630US are also quite old (ca. 30 years continuous service), there chances to fly again are slim.
The other six are "fresh" enough to soldier on for a few years.
