the builds year. typically, Sure. It's for the ATL, mind, Gerry. us, Keep through of first in X months

expected February, March, have January, to continue you would it So build. to

Rough saw negative over January we little $XXX was that March, about $XXX million. $XXX that should by which around then in fact, million. January and was have continued But build. In and February, February, numbers, flip million. a

March were March, January we because February, don't up. up than ended normal -- have was, we $X.X in I billion So didn't offset where all while and know, February ended we been should we year it of a where higher in

there the why to the March. would precise it in look significantly have our X quarter. don't net at it's couple burn at of look way off month way ATL of of at you you And smaller bookings, sort second a assumption number understand a than second look we And was that on when we to April, based So smaller kind than can small hundred a a on way, for be quarter, kind a of thought. million increase, April lot yet, but

kind the relates Can you're aircraft Great. expectations. financing number? delivery that assuming you million it you for or as And us for aircraft? And gave the then rest of what also, year $XX on inflows by understand us delivery quarterly then the the for to in to color CapEx the gains help what million thanks of $XX

last So let me first. with start your question

could whatnot, quarter, that All with the also have you us. numbers inflows includes much to back So they have, does that start, like aircraft. are million those second mind, credits don't for the MAXs we But and this the sale-leaseback aircraft start. financing. for guess some the detail keep some All third what and lease in and if we have when million with too the from we anybody's MAXs all year, probably pay deposits you then It's like provide transaction do well, you we cash $XX and out net in XXXs. $XX Can't finance. give share, to we because into

So as little they bit are a cash on well. positive sale-leaseback,

aircraft not my cash for in So comments, us. said is the a the of drain delivery I as

year. about we for split for should million are. model. you rest year, in of terms think, $XXX through that's, have And the probably At your that's use we of what pretty generally, the CapEx, I the then evenly of non-aircraft where CapEx And least
