Can anybody tell what the Air Taxi Co. thing is? I haven't heard to much, but I have heard that I think Crandall & Burr were starting that. Thanks.

Crandall's name has come up in connection with one of the new light jets. Another big name has been Bill Gates.

The scenario is that someone invests in about 500 or more light jets and starts a service of on demand jet charter at coach ticket prices.

The main stumbling block is getting any of these jets certified and flying. But when they do you may see some guys like Crandall and Gates surface as backers of new charter concepts.
