If they stopped providing services to FL180+ non-part-121 traffic they’d see way more reduction in load than just cancelling a little 121 traffic. Idk if anyone has looked at the unfiltered flight trackers but there are a fuck ton of private/business jets up in the flight levels and they’re not flying as predictable of routes (usually into smaller satellite airports near the main ones). They can’t do that though because it would upset all the rich people.
Damnit, I knew I was missing some important exclusion. Hope the people in charge put more thought into what they are doing than I do my lemmy comments lmao
I was at work when i made the original comment and didn’t realize there were that many fellow aviation people here. I love to see it, but I feel like I would have put more thought into my comment if I’d known.
i got interested after the oceangate disaster, because many of the aviation subs were chiming in, because the “sub” was made from defective airplane parts.

Maybe we should just reject all IFR flight plans with less than 20 passengers other than life flights. Make the rich fly low and slow.
So also cancel ALL cargo flights. Got it.

Don’t threaten me with a good time
Bonus points for VRF into IMC accidents thinning the billionaires out a bit. We can then call Gulfstreams “T tailed billionaire killers”
VRF into IMC should just be shortened to “Kobe landing”
I thought I was on /r/flying for a sec. Nice to see aviation people in Lemmy
Can I be the honorary /u/PM_ME_YOUR_EMPENNAGE? I promise I won’t let this go to my head
You just need to find an instance that doesn’t have that name registered (it’s probably all of them)
