Thank you all for your answers!

Andrea, I see the other way around what you are saying:

Sort  (cost=7407754.12..7407754.13 rows=4 width=2) (actual
time=371188.821..371188.823 rows=7 loops=1)
Seq Scan on ontime  (cost=0.00..7143875.40 rows=52775727 width=2)
(actual time=190938.959..346180.079 rows=52484047 loops=1)


I dont see the seq scan to ba a problem, and it is the correct choice
here because Year spans from 1999 to 2009 and the query asks from 2000
and on, so PG correctly decides to use seq scan and not index access.
