The Star-Telegram's aviation reporter Andrea Ahles and transportation reporter Gordon Dickson talk about how cheap gas is having good and bad effects on the Texas economy. For airlines, it means big profits but for government agencies, it translates to less money to build more roads. They also chat about new flights to Cuba and faster customs processing at DFW Airport.
