If only we had a functioning rail system to replace thr 50 seat regionals. -- nm - spamlet Oct 5, 10:01 6
- The problem there is that may of those 50 seaters are used for connections - ty97 Oct 5, 10:29 5
  - If we had a functioning rail system you could get to the airport. -- nm - spamlet Oct 5, 10:59 3
    - Would be a lot easier for that to be the case if the train stations were where the airports are. -- nm - znufrii Oct 5, 11:01 1
      - I agree that would be ideal but cities would scream. -- nm - spamlet Oct 5, 11:28
    - We can't get intercity rail working and you want airport rail?! -- nm - ty97 Oct 5, 11:00
  - Lear, bombardier...a G6 probably fits 50 in row seats configuration -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 5, 10:40
I watch some airline wags on YouTube who have been talking about the looming issue for airlines. - Mop Oct 5, 09:41
And a pony. -- nm - znufrii Oct 5, 09:37
