Crowded Skies

Recommended Posts

Ok, I'm pretty sure youve all heard that people say that the skies are crowded with airplanes. If you look up in the sky you see maybe 1 or 2 airplanes depending on your location. Until I see a aircraft traffic jam with planes honking and the pilots yelling for people to move I wont say the skies are crowded. What are your thoughts?

A friend of mine who was an air traffic controller once said, "It's tough as hell to

get to planes to collide." That's sort of a testimony to how uncrowded the

skies are.

It's not that the skies are so uncrowded, but that when planes need to land - essentially

compressing a three-dimensional space into two - it's a bit harder to find enough

room on the ground.

My dad quoted back "Just dont let the two dots make one!"
