SOURCE:

"A company called Windspeed Tech has for the past year or so been busy designing a novel upgrade to carriers and jets: a little bubble placed on the tail of an aircraft that offers a fantastic 360 degree view. The teardrop-shaped platform is called the SkyDeck, and Windspeed says it could help airlines earn more money, while offering a select few the ride of a lifetime.

Just thought this was very cool..

The world's largest airline company reported a record profit in the third quarter, thanks mostly to a steep drop in fuel costs and continued growth in demand.

American Airlines Group on Friday reported $1.7 billion in net income, or $2.49 per share, an 80% increase over the same period last year. Not counting special charges, the airline company earned $1.9 billion, a record profit for any quarter for the company.

Maybe they want to turn a billion dollar profit into a trillion dollar profit? :big-grin:

Nugget,

So long as people keep buying tickets and standing in line to be felt up, why would anyone stop?

It's like all the hoopla over minimum wage at Walmart who supports their wages more than the customer?

Anytime we want change just stop buying their stuff, tickets or turkeys the effect is the same.

I got my toe on that soap box....
