They are still confident of preserving one of the eight 315s to survive into 2022. Frankly, this could be a blessing in disguise as they will avoid paying storage fees for a few months longer by taking one of the very last units to go. There was nothing special about 820 anyway.

It might be nicest if one of the 315s to run on the last day is the one eventually preserved.
