New career as RepoPilot

The other day I read that the aviation business may becoming more like the hotel business in that one firm specializes in owning the phsyical assets and another firm specializes in operating the assets.

So, does that mean that when the operator leasing a plane defaults on the leasing agreement that the owner then needs a "repo-pilot" and copilot to sneak in while the plane is on the ground and fly off with it?

Pick ur price scheme can lead to higher prices paid

Apparently, a fixed price eradicates the potential buyer's worry about her self-image and looking like a cheapskate, thereby increasing demand (as compared with demand of the item with a "name your price" price).

And, even though through "name your price" pricing you can name a lower price than the fixed price, a lower price risks much embarassment in being labelled, by peers, as cheap and lacking generosity, apparently, and thereby reduces demand.
