Pollution + noise

Once calculated that 250 pax on a DC-10 used less gas than 250 drivers, each in a separate car, doing the same distance.

So why aviation should be the most polluting travel I don't know.

As for noise, the only annoying aviation noise comes at the beginning and end of the flight. Road traffic noise never gets away from the surly bonds - and is nation wide.
