But would you really want to be on an ERJ for that additional 200 miles?

Oh boy!...
After reading through this thread I am all but busting a gut with anticipation on how this will play out. The CO forum has been peaceful for far too long

Airplanes fly and cars don't
2+2 = pi Sqroot(2+N)
When you can give us the value N, you may correct us.

Keep in mind I cannot answer questions about frequent flyer programs or any CO policy. I simply do not know the answers to those questions.

Please go back to airliners.net where you belong... there's a lot of kiddies on there that need guidance.

Question for the OP
I have a question for the OP, regarding fuel consumption. Take whatever airframe/engine you are familiar with (an A320 would be good), flying a routine flight plan on, say, a 600 nm flight between uncongested airports. Then, what's the total fuel consumption, if that flight is full (say, 200 lbs per passenger in body/carry-on/baggage weight), vs the total fuel consumption flying dead-head? That is, the only variable is passenger load.

Either way I came up with 0
I love all of you with a sense of humor (it gets those of us who appreciate it through the mundane BS of everyday life)...which is where I suspect the "Corrector" is coming from....
Let's all have fun with it......
