[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 4251501, member: 23516"] Whoa, now. I never claimed to be the [I]only[/I] person paying for space on the plane. C'mon, Amazon - the water's great! The fact that there are two companies who do this and several failed ones speaks volumes about the way this industry operates. Amazon is leasing planes and crews from bottom of the barrel companies because it's cheap and they can exert a decent bit of control over them if/when they become a large enough customer. It also puts all of the risk on the backs of those other companies. Most importantly, it shows that they aren't quite committed to this yet because they can walk away from the leases. [/QUOTE]
