Another view of airline cuts' impact on airports (Winging It)

Another view of airline cuts' impact on airports

Michael Boyd, a Colorado-based aviation consultant, has taken issue with "the coalition," as he called it, meaning the Business Travel Coalition, and its list of 150 small- and mid-sized airports that could lose service as a result of airline cutbacks. Mike seems to think "the coalition" doesn't know what it's (actually it's a he, Kevin Mitchell) talking about. I thought the group's list was simply a statement of the obvious --- many smaller airports COULD lose service IF there are cutbacks. If you have time and want to read lots more find the critique at Boyd Group Web site.
