Accounting for the weight of the air displaced by an aircraft sitting on the runway has me stumped for a minute. But it made a lot more sense if I imagined that the aircraft was a slightly overloaded (or under-inflated) blimp.

If you're keeping track of volume, what about the oxygen from the alumina released into the air (as CO2) at the aluminum smelter?
