Slightly off topic/

I often wonder whether there is a market for different aircraft for short haul passenger flights.

Instead of pressurised tubes how about aircraft that have much bigger passenger windows and seating space? Sure the window size means they would have to fly lower, but it's a short haul flight anyway! Get back to the glory days of passenger flight I say!

Problem is people are inherently tight with their money, air travel is the way it is today because people don't want to pay any extra. Hell if it saved people 20 bucks they would probably stand up the entire flight if they could.
