> "Uber for planes" would be highly illegal, and everyone involved would get arrested.
Are you referring to the recent movie "I.T." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I.T._(film) where Pierce Brosnan plays the role of a airline company CEO who roles out an app that does for planes what Uber does for cars? He gets wrongfully arrested in the movie, but not for his "Uber for planes", but for something else. The roles in that film didn't square with reality. Brosnan portrayed an ethical family man and company director ignorant about IT, whereas in real life he'd be fiddling his company books, cheating on his wife, and using his business's IT infrastructure to illegally monitor his employees. The antagonist could talk to girls and run a sophisticated surveillance system, but couldn't shrug off a snub by Brosnan's character. None of it was believable. I wouldn't use anything in that film as a reference to real life.
