The advantage is that almost any airport can handle a VLJ." </p> <P>These lightweight, fuel-efficient jets will effectively operate as air taxis. At $2 million each (compared with about $100 million for a 130-seat Boeing 737), they are affordable and will add enormous flexibility to air travel. </p> <P>Marion Blakey, head of the US Federal Aviation Administration, says within 10 years there will be in excess of 5000 VLJs flying in the US.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/3CD9FEA4-2BEE-4719-9BF1-B7E7B9DFC888/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
