No, it's a great question, Preo, because the game changed during COVID. These are depreciating assets; they go down in price every single year. But in the last two years, they went up, which is an anomaly that was never seen in the history of the year. Bicycles, motorcycles, everything.

But now it's starting to come back down, and we probably, unless we have another pandemic or something, we're not going to see that happen again. So normally, the first 5 years of an airplane's age probably lose about 40% of the airplane value, and the warranty expires after 5 years.

But to give an example, that airplane might drop after 5 years old because it doesn't have the warranty. It's really a stupid reason for it because let's say the difference in price might be $3 or $4 million instead of 25; it's 20.
