How long before it happens?
It will bring back more dignified travel, higher pay, better work rules, smoother ATC and less delays?
I love the RJ's... But with the congested airspace we have now, RJ's take up a slot in the airspace system and only hold a few pax. A slot in the airspace system is a slot. The performance (field length) isn't much better than the bigger jets. There is room for them, just not in the large numbers that they are attaining. We will still need the short field capable feeders.
Deregulation has failed at everything it was intended to fix except getting more people in the air for less.
The Majors are bloated and slow moving to change, but that is to be expected. With all the LCC's that don't have to start out with all the inherent cost that a company that has been in business for years and thousands of people to maintain (pensions,leaves,healthcare) can be quick footed to change but eventually becomes the same slow beast.
The FAA and their duel role... Somebody needs to flush that toilet.
Go ahead flame away, I just unzipped my extinguisher.
