Default Airline Terror attack

People love to fly including myself. However, the airline industry in
America as it stands now is a pathetic business model.


What model do you recommend? How about letting airlines sell all
seat-tickets to commodity brokers just like they buy and sell barrels of
oil. Look how well that model does for the energy industry and how well we
all get screwed. Then we can all pay $1.00 per mile where ever we fly to.

Honestly, I think we all pay way too little for tickets. We're pilots here
and a lot of us understand the cost of maintaining a single-engined
aircraft. The cost of these behemoths is mind boggling.

I'd say look at the Southwest model.
