Here is a quote:

<<Check it out yourself. A summary of Plan B in all its chaotically cheesy glory is posted at the US Airways Web site. You'll probably be as dumbstruck as the analysts and other airline observers, none of whom could figure out exactly what the US Airways executives were talking about yesterday.

Just as Ed Wood had stray plot lines, extraneous bits of dialogue and god-awful sets strewn about Plan 9 from Outer Space, the US Airways Plan B is full of incoherent route swapping and aircraft substitutions and goofy collections of spit and baling wire masquerading as strategic initiatives. Plan B has got squadrons of flights coming and going to Florida, Airbus jets replacing older planes, international aircraft with an undefined mix of two- and three-cabin configurations, the flotsam called Metrojet emerging from and receding into the background at awkward moments, and vast fleets of regional jets inexplicably appearing all at once in the skies over the East Coast.>>
