The Security Tax was nothing more than a money grab by the liberals almost none of it went to actual security. And I think we still have the highest security tax in the world even greater than the US wich arguably needed improvment the most due to the threat level and outdated aviation infrastructer...

Ok Just my two cents here. Are they refering to the old 737-200 that are being phased out or even the new 700's. My way of thinking is if your going to get rid of the old 200 why invest 2 million or so in an aircraft that is worth 2 million. First off there isnt really a market for the old 200 anymo...
