Climate activist Harrison Ford has been photographed yet again piloting one of his gas-guzzling private jets, this time on a cross-country trip to Los Angeles to celebrate his wife Calista Flockhart’s birthday.
The Raiders of the Lost Ark star piloted his $18.8 million Cessna Citation Sovereign jet from New York to Tennessee to pick up his mother-in-law and then onto L.A. to celebrate his wife’s 58th birthday, according to a Daily Mail report.
The three were reportedly seen disembarking from the plane in L.A. and boarding an SUV. The cross-country plane trip gave off an estimated 10.8 metric tonnes of carbon emissions — more than double the carbon footprint if the three had taken a commercial flight.
Ford’s enthusiasm for flying private planes has frequently clashed with his environmental activism.
The actor spoke at the U.N. Climate Action Summit in 2019 where he praised young climate activists, including Thunberg, as a “moral army” who will make a difference.
“They are a moral army, and the most important thing we can do for them is to get the hell out of their way,” Ford said.
In a 2020 interview with Time magazine, Ford called out politicians who have made climate change a “divisive issue” and “do it to protect the entrenched economic interests who profit from behavior that destroys our planet.”

This guy has NO business piloting a plane.
He survived one crash and then did this a few years ago.
I light of what happened at the air show in Texas yesterday it’s just a matter of time until something bad happens to this guy.
I hope he’s not getting senile and now thinks he really is Indiana Jones!
And hes had some crashes as well.
Another rich phony
...and are masters at (politically/culturally) playing both sides against the middle, while THEY steal from all.
See post 23
No surprise. He also supported Beta O’Dork for Texas Governor. And that tool doesn’t even live in Texas.
Beautiful Supercub clone, though. It’s out of place at an airport anyway.
The Fake Climate Crisis is only for controlling the Little People
He’s a piker when it comes to generating a large carbon footprint.
John Travolta flies his old 707 around and really burns the kerosene...
The Citation is a sweet plane though, can top out at about 700mph if I remember correctly... range is limited though.
To cross the Pacific without a stopover in Hawaii you’d need
something more substantial... like a G5
He’s not worried about the climate. I estimate that he won’t be around in 9 years, so it is ALL ABOUT POLITICS!
BenLurkin is right. They use Octal in his galaxy.
Narrated a Stinkin Linkin project video in 2020, so that means Ford is comfortable with racists (Wilson) and chickenhawks (Weaver) -- no real surprise coming from Mr. Hollywood.
Ford is a genuinely bad pilot and a threat to general aviation any time he is first seat -- how many ordinary Americans would be allowed to maintain their PPL at 80 with a 4-deep (that we know of) FAA incident file?
Tire dust is their latest "gonna kill the erf" stupidity.
You will have to walk.
In bare feet because undoubtedly your shoes produces this deadly dust as well.
Remember to tug your forelock to your betters surf.
I’ve heard the license is easy to keep but its the medical that gets most pilots. Would you feel comfortable having an 80 year old pilot, surgeon?
Nope
.
Well, I'll be damned.
Ya learn something new every day!
;-)
That's how Ford made the Kessel Run in under 12 parsecs.
Indeed they are. Spoiled degenerates and towering hypocrites every one of them. I can't imagine spending money to see their crappy movies.
Jealous?
Son ACE flies a 747 now! Pretty much only in America can you do this on merit alone.
