With US Airways Group hostile $8.67 billion takeover bid for Delta Air Lines yesterday, the long-predicted consolidation in the airline industry may have started.

Talk of such consolidation pushed airline stocks higher Wednesday with American and Continental hitting their highest share prices since September 11, 2001.
