Airplanes don't get horrible gas mileage. A Cessna gets 15 nMPG, which is better than some trucks. They are made to be aerodynamic, unlike trucks.
A full 737 gets something like 100 passenger MPGs.
You know what gets horrible fuel economy? A single occupant truck driver hauling nothing but his own butt.
Also, public transit busses get horrible passenger MPGs because most of the time they are hardly utilized. The average is something like 20 passenger MPGs. You could do better with a fleet of Priuses shuffling people from where the DO live to where they ACTUALLY want to go, unlike stupid public busses.
