A Look at Fractional Jet Ownership
Fractional jet ownership is provided by a number of companies, including Cessna's CitationShares, Bombardier's Flexjet, and NetJets, the company that started the trend. CitationShares and Flexjet are owned by aircraft manufacturers, their respective fleets composed mainly (if not entirely) of the planes they make.

The Marquis Jet Card starts at $109,900 for 25 hours in a Cessna Citation V. Fractional shares start at 1/16 of a share, which can be as low as $369,875 in a Hawker 400XP.

Flying Blimp Walrus Could Have Assisted in Evacuations
The Walrus Super Blimps will soon be out to bid to see who can come up with a suitable design and plan. Imagine giant blimps picking them all up and taking them to Atlanta, Houston, Dallas and San Antonio? Then when that darn levee broke which most people suspected it might a blimp could have had 20 cargo containers filled with sand and simply lowered them into the breach to slow down the water flow and then used sand bags to fill in the spaces between?
