331 is the next unit to be replaced, as of now, in 2012. The rumor is that the striker that replaces 331 will have a snozzle. As of now though, no real big push to get one. The biggest aircraft that flies out of DCA is a 757, and even that is only 5 or 6 times a day. I wouldn't be surprised if they gave another snozzle unit to Dulles before they got one for DCA, but that's just speculation on my part. Many of the guys just see it as one more thing to break and to be maintained, and one more headache in the process of driver/operators training.

I figured that the next Striker would go to National in 12 and then Dulles should be due for one maybe two before replacing #3 at National.
