I can see my house from here!
Al Gore’s comment: Oh my God – look at that Carbon Footprint!

I just saw my lost luggage!
The most interesting part is the trans-Atlantic traffic between the US and Europe. During the first half it looks like all traffic goes east to Europe. During the second half, it reverses and it all goes west to the US.
That route, unlike the others, seems like a commuter route.
#5 “That route, unlike the others, seems like a commuter route.”
It is. That route alone filled my passport pages beyond capacity.
That video doesn’t show it very well but the FedEx push is a thing of beauty.
that is pretty good, although i cant see the uk as the planes seem to cover it.

Interesting to compare Australia with Europe. Australian flights leave immediately at dawn, while Europe waits a while. Cultural difference? No. It’s Northern Hemisphere summer, and airlines prefer schedules that work year-round.
Trans-Atlantic flights, even from South America, like to arrive in Europe in the morning.
Europe probably has more local laws prohibiting nighttime takeoffs and landings.
