LOL..if you only knew of the history of this so called 'airline'.  An
acquaintance of mine next-door neighbor is a founding investor.
I've been checking their website for over year now for new updates and this
latest press release is much more sound than the crap they were talking 6
months ago...flying a few different types of aircraft to various
destinations from day 1...it had no real merit.  I hope this is a positive
change and sound plan.  New York needs another Empire Airlines.
