Catman,
Like your idea. But to carry it one step farther--"Flyertalk Airlines"!!!!
Don't know how many FTer's in total are on this website, but if we all chip in $1.99,
(okay, $2.50), would we have enough cash to buy one of the -400's and convert it (as mentioned above)to all First Class (maybe Biz if we need a few more seats) for exclusive use of FT members, at, of course, ridiculously reduced fares. And FF points.
If not a -400, any 747-SP's may go for a substancially reduced price. Smaller, but faster!!
