On another note...

I'm not a pilot, but I know a lot about how good companies work, and their attendant management styles.

Trust me when I tell you that many of the very best, most profitable and MOST ADMIRED companies in the world are not run by nice guys. MO'L is widely disliked (especially, it seems, on this and other professional fora)...but he deserves a lot of credit for his clarity of vision, and dogged pursuit of a very clearly stated business purpose. They won't admit it, but most other airline CEO's would sell their own children to be in his position.

Cheap, safe, and does what it says on the tin, IMHO....

(Just to ward off the inevitable flak, my only connection to RYR is that I'm a regular customer).
