   I watched a YouTube video about a 40 minute flight from Parkersburg to   
   Beckley, WV. The flights then go on to Charlotte.  It's a flight   
   subsidized by the government for rural access. Beckley's airport gets 2   
   flights a day and maybe gets a passenger a day.   
      
   What bugged me was that the flight is limited due to subsidy rules to 30   
   passengers. They took the back half of the seats out. Why not take out   
   every other row, preserve the look of the interior and give people some   
   space (albeit for less than an hour) instead of cramming them all at the   
   front?
