I asked someone who I'm sure is in the know and he told me that it is an
outright purchase, money paid, deal done! (you could probably buy one
too, if you have a lazy $4 million lying around) He believed that it was
due here this month but as it isn't, next month for sure.  It will be
interesting to see how it stacks up against the Gs when they are fitted
with the F series engine which is rated at 4k as as well.
