Haim -- even if I had the time, that's a major load of info. Your best bet would be peeking at financial reports of the individual airlines. Also, there is probably some info within the Department of Transportation web site. Aviation Week & Space Technology Magazine used to track these costs in pretty good depth but I gave up my subscription (expensive) long ago. Many libraries carry this publication. Sorry I couldn't be more help

Haim, let me suggest this website; planebusiness.com one of my son-in-laws is a pilot for TWA re: American now - until he's layed off. alot of pilots use this site to keep up with the business news and rumors (might be of some help). visited them for 2 months(Aug & Sept) and asked him about the business. suggested PUTting UAL and US Air (U), esp. U because of cost/seat. U was the highest of all, UAL because of their business. I bought PUTs on both on 9/4, and of course, unloaded as soon as the markets re-opened after 9/11 (donated the proceeds to pulmonary research at UW and a doctor doing research in africa on AIDS - just didn't feel comfortable with the $$ after the tragedy). His other suggestion at the time was western air or air west, can;t remember-but their main routes were to las vegas, however being small i thought they might be a possible take over target so stayed away. check out the website, Bill/WA
