Sunny mate, tell me something I don't know.

I'm trying to lift the debate beyond the here's a few jobs for the boys.

Yes but at what cost?

My point is, that this form of business case is in itself predatory in exactly the same way the GA operators have worked themselves out of business, as well in this case an irresponsible use of non renewable resources and an unnecessary impost on the environment.

Try and put the old 70's diesel buses back on the road and see how far you get.

No wonder we didn't sign up to Kyoto we would have to trade a heap of credits won by efficient users to offset the extra carbon load.


Which is exactly what it going to happen before too long. An operator using high emission products is going to have to pay an additional carbon tax. That'll take the fun out of it.

The CV990 BTW was still in commercial ?? service until the mid eighties. It was very quick but not realy competitive in airline service.

ZigZag quite so and it is not suddenly relevant it remains so. You know very well the circumstances and history of those types and they, JT and the military are hardly running hourly schedules between city hubs.
