Quite amazing reading this!
The study was sponsored by some major corporate names, who then proceed to contest the findings!
Two major principles of this study, are the need for more taxation to right the wrongs of the world (!?!!) and this wonderful notion of short hops to fly everywhere and anywhere.
There is no need to theorise on the effects this wil have on air travel, just ask anyone who travelled in the days before the current long range aircraft types; of the wonders of Shannon, Prestwick, Anchorage and Newfoundland (plus tons more).
Anyone involved with this project care to comment?
Anyone got a copy of the report?
Bring back the DC-6 I say!
