The real fall of the planes has nothing to do with terrorists, or even our current economic state. The real reason so many plane companies have or are on the of bankruptcy is due to regulations that have totally been ingnored. Who is to blame, well it is obbvious. The Plane companies, and the FAA. Basically what happened was the plane companies ignored FAA regular safety checks and the FAA actually allowed until that march day when CNN reported the breaking news of the groundin of almost a tird of southwest airline's fleet. In the month to follow three airlines instantly tanked and cancled all their flights automatically, with no warning. The victims of this act, not the company's the customers,but thats obvious. Who(if anyone) is one that profit from this fiasco. Delta Airlines. They were the only ones smart enough to quickly build a merge deal that really kept themfrom going under and when all the others fell down the ladder delta was able to keeps its spot. Great job Delta!
