Wow. What a terrible time for the industry.

Ron, have you ever seen it this bad? You've been in the industry and though some things are cyclic, what is your take on this?

What is this, the 8th carrier now?

My heart goes out to those families.

Too bad. Zoom had such a bizarre business model, though, it's amazing to me they survived as long as they did.

Wow! I didn't hear about this - and as I was driving past KFLL this afternoon on my way home, the Zoom flight was coming in from I assume LGW - that's what they were going to do - I guess that is stranded on the ground now.

Maybe we will get the L1011 again.
