Subj : Short Flight To : All From : Kurt Weiske Date : Thu Oct 09 2025 06:49:31 I watched a YouTube video about a 40 minute flight from Parkersburg to Beckley, WV. The flights then go on to Charlotte. It's a flight subsidized by the government for rural access. Beckley's airport gets 2 flights a day and maybe gets a passenger a day. What bugged me was that the flight is limited due to subsidy rules to 30 passengers. They took the back half of the seats out. Why not take out every other row, preserve the look of the interior and give people some space (albeit for less than an hour) instead of cramming them all at the front? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WZGH0Tlmms --- MultiMail/Win v0.52 * Origin: http://realitycheckbbs.org | tomorrow's retro tech (1:218/700) .
