Yes..... if these clowns have figured out a way to predict the future - which I doubt. If you want a rosier forecast look at some of the propaganda the flying schools/pilot interview preparation industry put out regularly, something to the effect of a gazillion new passengers by 2020 with two gazillion by 2030.

Who knows what will actually happen - a new disease, a new war, economic depression, or another terrorist attack and we will be wishing for a 5 year return to 2008.

Then again, if the next economic bubble should start inflating, we may have a few good years before it pops.

Anything can, and probably will happen. I'm just guessing, but that sounds like something Yogi Berra probably said.
