	Air Supremacy (Sector Patrol) \| SmartMoney.com
		The Air Transport Association of America reported last week that the industrywide load factor, or the percentage of filled seats on flights, fell to 59.0% in September from 69.9% a year ago.
		And the International Air Transport Association warned that the steep drop-off in air travel would produce sectorwide losses of $10 billion to $12 billion this year.
		For its part, Alaska Air, the parent of Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air, blew away the Street's third-quarter estimate of a 56 cent a share loss by registering a 27 cent profit.

	Air superiority - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Air superiority is the dominance in the air power of one side's air forces over the other side's during a military campaign.
		Air power has since become an increasingly powerful element of military campaigns; military planners view having at least an environment of air superiority as a necessity.
		In the 1960s, the term Air superiority fighter was be used to refer to the development of the teens series F-14, F-15, F-16 and F/A-18 which all made close combat maneuverable a top priority.

	The Air Campaign - Chap 1
		To be superior in the air, to have air superiority, means having sufficient control of the air to make air attacks on the enemy without serious opposition and, on the other hand, to be free from the danger of serious enemy air incursions.
		The contention that air superiority is a necessity to ensure victory or avoid defeat is based on theory and on an analysis of the last half century of warfare.
		As air played no significant role in the invasion for either side, the ensuing action was essentially as it would have been before the era of the aircraft.

	CHAPTER VI - THE AIR CAMPAIGN
		Air superiority, or the dominance of a group of aircraft in a given time and space without prohibitive interference by the opposing force, was effectively gained in the first hours of the war.
		Air supremacy (the degree of air superiority wherein the enemy is incapable of effective interference) would be announced on 27 January.
		The air superiority gained in the first days of Operation Desert Storm, and the air supremacy declared on D + 10, against some of the more heavily defended airspace in the history of warfare, granted Coalition aircraft a safety and freedom that permitted operations at high and medium altitudes over Iraq with virtual impunity.

	CHAPTER VI - THE AIR CAMPAIGN - Results
		Iraq's sophisticated air defense system was defeated by stealth, large packages of EW aircraft, decoy drones, and attack aircraft using PGMs and gravity weapons, while key nodes in the electrical power system, air defenses, C2 structure, and intelligence apparatus were attacked by stealth and conventional aircraft using PGMs and by cruise missiles.
		An indirect impact of Coalition air supremacy was reflected in the Iraqis' ignorance of Coalition dispositions and operations.
		Throughout Operation Desert Shield, Coalition air forces were flying defensive counter air sorties to ensure the arrival and movement of forces into the AOR remained unimpeded by hostile attack.

		Air superiority fighters, such as the F-15C, and air-to-ground aircraft, such as the F-15E, were based relatively close to the Iraqi border, where they had the greatest reach and were near long-duration CAP stations over Iraq.
		Air interdiction attacks were planned to reduce and slow resupply for the forces in the KTO, which were almost totally dependent on outside sources for supplies, including food and water.
		Air interdiction attacks left most of the Iraqi army in the KTO weak and demoralized, although frontline forces in Kuwait bore the brunt of these privations.

	washingtonpost.com: U.S. Moved Early for Air Supremacy
		The intensified airstrikes, which got underway in earnest in the summer of 2002, were justified publicly at the time as a response to increased Iraqi targeting of U.S. pilots patrolling a no-fly zone.
		The result was an intense, sustained air assault on Iraqi forces that knocked out enemy air defenses, kept Iraqi warplanes from flying and cleared the way for the speedy advance of U.S. ground troops into Baghdad.
		It disclosed that shortages in reconnaissance aircraft and bad weather severely crimped the ability of U.S. forces early in the war to gauge the damage being done to Iraqi ground troops.
