Not wanting to pish on anyone's chips here, but, I too have heard and personally flown on full full full flights, but the impression that I was under is that there are less flights being run on existing sched's, as well as certain less profitable routes (pre-9/11) that have been axed. I live a couple of miles out from the threshold and a couple fo degrees off the approach/departure path for rwy 07/25 here in Ottawa and I can tell you that I have noticed a drop off in traffic since 9/11. I seem to be no longer awoken at 6:30 am with the roar of a 737 climbing out over my house (with picture frames rattling on my walls <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> ).

So, my synopsis, slightly less people wanting to fly since 9/11, BUT, a lot less flights = FULL flights. Having said all that, I hope I'm wrong and PS is right .......

Happy ldgs..
