You forget that I sold 330 CT1 and 242 CT2 accelerators before !
Some people do not need more than CT2 or CT1...
I sold CT60 to people that have not a CT2 except 1 or 2 people...

But how CT1 + CT2 are yet in use..??

If 6000 F30 are yet in use, they are 6000 that are sleeping somewhere !!
Where are these falcons ? Hey so many people are looking for them...it may
be good to locate some not used falcon !
No falcon on ebay....
Very strange...
