Good Olde People's Airline
Some twenty or so years ago, an entrepreneur had an idea......
Establish an airline, which ran like a Greyhound bus......Pull
the empty airplane up to a loading dock and let people on......
Bring a bag or two with you, but not in flight service.....You
could by an apple or a soda......And when the plane was full
of people it would take off.......
Not a bad idea, at the time, but the poor company went
bankrupt because the idea was ahead of its time.....Fly
New York City to Boston for $39.00....A dollar more if
you bought the apple or soda.....
Here it is some twenty or so years later and the flying
public is getting use to the absence of frills and human
comforts.....Soon you will be HAPPY just to get on a plane,
get to where your are going and savor the taste of your
apple all the way.....Pumps
