Sorry, just read it and didn't sound right. To really kill the humor... the reason Southwest managed profits while many airlines lost money is because they actually have smart people running the airline. They hedged on the price of fuel years ago and were buying jet fuel at $1.50 a gal. in 2006 while other's were paying triple that.

Gez, I'm thread jacking my own thread. I'm guessing that's not funny either.

But yeah, 737 sounds right.
