[QUOTE="floridays, post: 4585193, member: 68849"] Amazon never got in the airline business, they were simply using aircraft to move their packages. One of their products is an internet storefront that completes sales transactions. In an effort to maximize profit and control distribution costs they have chosen to deliver what they can. Aircraft and trucks are the mechanical means they have chosen to take advantage of. Fedex is a delivery service, each operating company is centered on the delivery of goods. Without the delivery of goods all operations would cease to exist. Fedex Express is not an airline, under statute they are simply considered an airline, it has never, to my knowledge been challenged in court. In performing their duty to deliver goods Express utilizes aircraft and road vehicles. The airline operation ends at the airport, the road transport begins at the airport, the service is then completed on receipt of goods. Take either out the service fails. I can see with my eyes what is air transport and what is ground transport. I need no court to tell me what is an aircraft and what is ground transportation. In the end the business is the delivery of goods. Once again with no delivery of goods, the operations cease. [/QUOTE]
