Now, now
oceancrosser, you are starting to think like a Regulator who actually regulates. That will never do!
As we see in many countries, if the regulator lets the airports book more flights each year than they have valid (workable) slots, then you will get congestion and delays. So, if the govt started fining the govt for allowing too many rotations????
(Waits for an American to put me straight about how the American system works but my bet is that the Federal govt is in the mix somewhere!!)
