While the major airlines have been flying into air turbulence, many regional lines are faring much better under the new system. Leaner, unburdened by huge corporate overhead and often flying highly fuel-efficient aircraft, the regionals are better prepared to cope with competition. As an added advantage, they generally have simple route structures that operate from one main hub airport, pulling in traffic from outlying "spokes."

Indeed, some critics regard the action as little more than a sugar-coated placebo that will have little effect. As a consequence, they are calling for even stronger measures to cope with what FDA Commissioner Jere Goyan, a pharmacist, calls "our overmedicated society." One reform proposed by Dr. Sidney Wolfe, head of Ralph Nader's Health Research Group: require doctors to write a new prescription every time a patient wants to buy tranquilizers. Under the FDA's current rules, tranquilizer prescriptions...
