Sell your airline, airplane mfg, and all related airline stocks NOW.

[ptsal]

Reduce the number of flights by half.

Raise the price per ticket to off-set the lost revenue.

Let’s see...obozo has agreed to turn over the Internet and the EPA is going to regulate airplane emissions.
Travel becoming more restricted....freedom of expression becoming more restricted. Doesn’t tjis sound like Venezuela?

[RandallFlagg]

I’m betting there’s a ruling sitting on some bureaucrat’s desk that lists new emission rules about smokeless powder and primers, and their effect on, “Climate Change.”

Not to mention the hear generated when some evil person fires a weapon. Of course evil and firing a weapon are synonymous.

Actually, many of them are shorter range airliners like 737's and A320's that have a LOT of takeoff-landing cycles on them and reached the point of the end of their airframe lives. They're already starting to scrap 777's built in the 1990's because those planes have reached the end of their rated airframe life.

I buy a vehicle with thousands of dollars in emission controls. I have to spend thousands to maintain that system. For all that I get a vehicle that is less efficient so I spend thousands for extra fuel. I wonder how does burning more fuel equal good for the environment?

I made a conscious decision after the 9/11 attacks, that I would never fly again. So far so good and I don't miss it or the TSA hassle at all after 15 years.

I am retired now and I have time to travel by other means. I am heading across country and back in October to my high school reunion. A former classmate and I will be driving the total roundtrip of 4,500 miles in his car. No planes for us. We never even considered it.

I am not afraid of flying but more disgusted with flying commercially in today's environment. I remember when it was fun to jump on a flight to go somewhere. It is not a pleasant experience anymore.

How about he and the Quot - Unquote Climate Change Proselytizers pledge and commit to - SHUT UP!

Hussein Obama doesn't give a rip about climate change, he only cares about implementing dumbass liberal programs that hurt the US.

By implementing these liberal programs, Hussein hurts businesses, the economy and moves more wealth overseas. WHY? Do you think the Germans and British airlines will be affected?

America's FIRST Muslim President thinks Americans are stupid enough to let him continue destroying the US. So far, no sweat.
