It was mentioned in the last month or so that we "might" get some A320's that were parked by Swissair. I found this in an AWST article on the Boeing/Airbus competition...

Stuart Mann, the A320-series' director of product marketing, expresses great satisfaction about recently placing aircraft that were parked in the aftermath of operator bankruptcies. Aces, Aero Lloyd, Ansett Australia, Canada 3000, Sabena Belgian World Airlines and Swissair, which all ceased operations in the past three years, operated a combined 128 A320-series twinjets. Today, 125 have a new owner, the remaining three are under offer. The absence of parked A320s underscores the residual value of European twinjets and bolsters ongoing sales campaigns, Mann says.
