Today, we have private airline companies, but if you take a look at a Boeing plane next time you travel, you'll see that you are basically taking a ride on a modified bomber.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Aircraft are always going to be something that terrorists are interested in because you bring down an airliner, you have drawn the world's attention.
I think airlines have been very much parrots. They'll just follow what everyone else is doing. Why change a model that they're happy in? And it takes someone like myself or Richard Branson who comes from outside the industry to say, 'Hey, let's try something new.'
A private jet is not a luxury; it is a necessity.
I mean, I'd love to have a private jet - I know people who fly by private jet all the time... I've hitched a ride a few times and it is not overrated at all; it's a great way to travel!
Boeing does a great job in introducing product that kind of changes the game.
I've had a chance to fly a lot of different airplanes, but it was nothing like the shuttle ride.
I was hooked on aviation, made model airplanes, and never thought I would be able to fly myself. It cost too much. But then World War II came along and changed all that.
A lot of airlines have come and gone.
I hate flying. Know why? Because no one really understands how planes actually work.
Airlines are one of the last things to be liberalized.
