Default repatriation

I often think about that one.

Nationalise American Airlines. They have a fleet of 670 aircraft - mostly big ones.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Airlines

Rotate the fleet so there are flights going out everyday. Say 200 flights per day with 300 or so slopes (stick some in the cargo area if needs be).

That's 60 000 a day going to Chimpbabwe and/or wherever is the closest on the continent to save fuel and flying time.

60 000 x 365 days of the year = 21 900 000.

Not bad eh?:krofl
