[Swiftwater Gazette] Global Warming

[Brad Haslett]

Just got this from a fellow pilot -

Flew a trip a couple of weeks ago and my flying partner told me that
he was somewhere in Florida and heard a story from an FBO CSR about Al
Gore.  Seems his G-IV was down for maintenance and they chartered an
older G-II which guzzles a lot of fuel and belches a lot of smoke.
The handling instructions for the FBO requested that upon arriving at
the ramp the crew would shut the airplane down with the PAX on board
and the FBO would tow the airplane into the hangar.  They were then
instructed to shut the hangar door so that the entourage could deplane
in private and enter a couple of Toyota Prius's.  The CSR was upset
that she forgot to snap pictures of the event with her cell phone.
