Good thoughts - i didnt share these views with the exhibitors!

I am pleased some people are willing to digest future prospects. I was starting to think everybody was employing the blinkered approach. I am not sure that with those thoughts in mind that it offers a great career anymore? With only a possible 25years of oil left - prices already rising - severe weather events associated to global warming already evident!

Does anybody have knolwedge of alternative fuel sources for aircraft - we all know of the sinclair C5 approach to cars?

We all know how close to the bone these airlines run - a modest hike in fuel prices will quickly lead to increased ticket prices, decreased passenger numbers and pilot jobs following close behind.
