$2 won't buy a Lamborghini. Especially a $750,000 one. Nor would it allow you to destory it with a sledge hammer to show your frustration with the dealership....
Odd. I thought China was a communist country? Lamborghini dealership?
A businessman from the city of Qingdao in eastern China bought the souped-up Italian sports car in October for about $750,000, but that didn't stop him from reducing it to pile of scrap metal on Tuesday -- World Consumer Rights Day.
Han Nan, the Lamborghini's owner, returned the flashy vehicle to the dealership in November to correct an engine malfunction. But the car came back from the garage in worse shape with a damaged bumper and chassis, the Daily Record said.
Subsequent arguments that Han had with the managers at the dealership and Lamborghini officials went nowhere.
Han, an entrepreneur with a wholesale lighting company, turned his personal frustration into a public spectacle. Crowds gasped as the demolition crew clad in blue uniforms and helmets totaled the car on the streets. At one point, the workers handed over the sledgehammers to the spectators and allowed them to join in the frenzy by climbing on top of the Lamborghini and smashing it.

There's "communism" for the working class, and "communism" for the party members. My dad did some biz av consulting work in China, and the biggest Capitalists in the country were the generals and party leaders.

Heard a few ramblings that the NYC slot/swap has been settled and should be out soon. Though I did hear that about 3 weeks ago, so I'm sure it's anybody's guess on how accurate that is.
You bring up a good point regarding the next AE, I am sure they have probably delayed it until the Slot Swap deal becomes official. If anything it shows that they are probably close to coming to a settlement on it.

I think the year of the customer just meant they were going to give the customer what they wanted, lowest possible fares. Who cares about customer service or on time performance?

Republic orders 40 CSeries and options 40 more
Republic orders 40 CSeries and options 40 more
By David Kaminski-Morrow
US-based Republic Airways Holdings has ordered 40 Bombardier CSeries aircraft and placed options on 40 more.
The company has signed a purchase agreement for the CS300 variant of the twin-jet.
Republic Airways Holdings says the aircraft will be configured with 138 seats, in a single cabin arrangement.
The Indianapolis-based company owns several US operators including Chautauqua Airlines, Frontier Airlines, Lynx Aviation, Midwest Airlines, Republic Airlines and Shuttle America.
Deliveries are to begin in the second quarter of 2015. The aircraft will be fitted with Pratt & Whitney PW1000G engines and the carrier has signed an exclusive 15-year maintenance deal with the engine supplier.

Not Real Amazons
While not exactly Supreme Bikini Inspector, Gaddafi does have a 40 member cadre of personal bodyguards that he handpicks himself. They are all female and must be Virgins to gain entry to the squad. They are nicknamed the 'Amazonian Guards'. In a 1998 assassination attempt on his motorcade, 7 of them were wounded and one was killed reportedly throwing herself in front of the Colonel.
....So he's not completely crazy!
