    You also need to budget £10k+ for your general aviation licence, and another £10k+ for your IR(A) licence. You need to live near an airport with a hire fleet, or lay out eye-watering sums in depreciation, insurance and maintenance etc for your own plane. And you need to feel comfortable with indulging in the most environmentally unfriendly and selfish form of personal transport...

      Right, because running a piston engine in a plane is so much worse than running a piston engine in a car...

      @gnJubilee I've just done a quick comparison of a journey in a Cessna 172 vs the same journey in my fuel-efficient ICE car. Bearing in mind the fuel efficiency and density the Cessna will create around 9 times the impact in terms of CO2. There is also the noise nuisance (I used to live near a general aviation airstrip and it's a pain), the need for large and expensive ground facilities, and the embodied CO2 in the manufacture of the plane and all the spares it uses during its lifetime. General aviation is by any standards an indulgent and environmentally damaging way to travel.

      ​@@tullochgorum6323 yea but it's bloody good fun and compared to people taking flights multiple times a year to far away places on airliners the impact is probably similar. Let's just stay at home shall we.

      @@kip_san There are literally dozens of adventurous sports that consume far less resources and create far less noise and pollution. And your argument also assumes that private aviators don't take as many commercial flights as the average person, which is patently untrue.
