ANN Special Feature: Is Now the Time For Air Taxis? 08.16.06
While the crack-down on carry-on continues and commercial air passengers stand in longer and longer lines to check their luggage... more and more people are turning to private aviation for their transportation needs. Charter services report an increase of up to 60-percent in their business. But another branch of the business aviation sector is taking off as well -- the air taxi service. It offers many of the same conveniences as air charter... but at lower costs. This is what NASA and the FAA envision when they preach the concept of a Small Aircraft Transportation System... SATS. Well... meet SATS-Air chief Steve Hanvey... only in this case... SATS stands for Smart Air Travel Solutions.
