So we have a DTW and ATL 717 base; many more 717's on the way.
Question: How many 717 destinations to/from LAX does it require to make a LAX 717 domicile worthwhile? |

Heh. It was a bit of a strange rumor that would have been a complete about-face for RA & Co, and I haven't heard a bit about it from anyone other than the one poster here. I think someone up the rumor chain was intending to have a bit of fun with this thread :D.

His 7000 square foot driveway cost $25,000 to install and runs around $800.00 per 24 hours. JF'nK has 7,784,850 square feet of runway. Using the same cost structure, we're looking at $280 million to install and $890,000.00 in electricity for every day it's turned on. Or accidentally left on. I haven't added in the cost of runway shutdowns, union labor, or buying off the environmentalists and global warming scammers. One airport, quarter billion to install and a million per day to run it. Seems legit. |

NW had no trouble hush kitting theirs. I would put that up there with the internet legend about JetBlue getting free aircraft from Airbus for 3 years.
200 of them just showed up with sledgehammers and trash bags. :eek: |

Seems legit. It's not the runway that is the problem! When the De Ice crews don't show up because the roads leading to the airport are impassable, and the airplanes are covered with an inch of ice, no runway, no matter the cost, will be used. :rolleyes: |
