Perhaps it's just a reflection of a more general distribution of wealth.
Those who can easily afford to fly may be the wealthy urbanites with good
professional jobs, whereas rural populations may have lower average
incomes
and thus might not be able to easily afford flying.


This is certainly my theory and impression, but I have only my
observations to support it, no real data.


Come out west and see all the ranchers and farmers with their aircraft.

With the coming boom in corn prices, those hayseeds will be getting all the
money from you cityslickers. :~)


Just realize that the ethanol scam won't last forever.

I don't know about that. The ethanol stupidity is reaching critical mass
faster than the human caused global warming stupidity did.

But not as fast as the "human caused global warming causes everything" did!
