1. Airline execs buy next-generation autopilot systems and fire all co-pilots.
Six months later, a bright Operations guy thinks again about Bush's plan for remote-controlling flights from FAA towers ... after fine-tuning that technology, he invents the "CompuCockpit" and airlines fire the rest of the pilots.

2. Airline execs conclude .... "No meals? No FAs!" and fire their entire cabin crews.

In place, they hire 2,000 scowling buzzcut Stone Cold Steve Austin lookalikes .... who serve double roles as FAs and SkyMarshals.

This only becomes a problem on the 4-hour-plus flights, where the frowning guard s must dish out meals in F ...
"SIT THE HELL DOWN, I said!! Get up again and I'll HANDCUFF YOU!!!
OK, that's better. Now, about dinner, sir, we have pasta or fish. Would you like grated cheese with that? And would you care for some wine?"
