Default Some Aviation News :)

Just 34 years ago, you could
walk into Iowa City Municipal, board a plane, and fly to Chicago,
Denver or Minneapolis. Now, you must drive to Cedar Rapids or the
Quad Cities to do so.


You still can. Charter one. Compare =that= cost to the "good old days"
airline ticket cost.

Also, I'd venture there is less need for business travel now, since we
have internet and cheap telephone service.
