Reality check
As Old Chinese Philosopher once said,
"May you live in interesting times...!"
Human race has been abusing our fragile planet, the only one we've got, for a couple of centuries. Many posters on this thread are facing up to the distinct possibility that the AIRLINE INDUSTRY MAY VERY WELL GO DOWN THE PROVERBIAL....
We will have to grow our own veg, instead of importing green beans from Kenya.
We will have to holiday at home, instead of St. Kitts.
People with second dwellings in Spain will have to choose one or the other.
Tearful young couples stranded at the airport will have to get married at the local registrar, instead of Mexico.
A lot of ATPLs and CC on the breadline... Airlines going bust. Stockmarket into another downward spiral....
Dreadful to contemplate, all of it. BUT!!! Certainly launching airliners willynilly from US without clear skies ahead seems reckless endangerment to me, waiting for my son to visit from Orlando......
I can wait, until the boffins and the weathermen have got it sorted. I don't want his 777 to end up with ash in every orifice.
That's the real bottom line.
