You don’t buy a jet outright and forget about the supplier - you’re eternally reliant on their service, certification, parts, etc, as regulation is so high.
Yes but you are comparing to having a datacenter vs removing the datacenter completely. In this example FedEx has removed the datacenter completely, instead relying on someone else’s servers. So the correct comparison is to remove the jets and let someone else fly for you.
No that’s not what I wrote.
