Engage common sense - assume that in competition with normal commercial traffic it would be possible to land a private jet every 5 minutes, or 12 an hour. that would take about 1700/12 = 142 hours, or about 6 days to land them all.

common sense 2 - where do you park 1700 private jets? Zurich airport says they have room for about 60 transient private planes, and about 40 more spots are available at a nearby military base.

And...

It'e not "global warming talks". It's the World Economic Forum, an annual meeting of tycoons and politicians in a Swiss ski resort in the middle of ski season. In my mind, I see discussions of campaign contributions (cough bribes cough) in the privacy of a shared chairlift ride.

The purpose of the meeting I've seen has been to discuss climate change and income inequality. So it's a joke to begin with. But even one jet is too many for those that follow that religion. They can teleconference. Same for KOTUS. It's a money making/preserving scheme, nothing more.

Well, you know that's not going to happen... you're talking to Frothing-at-the-mouth Pigo, our very own right-wingnut bigot.

It's a chance to ski Davos with someone else's money, something we
surely understand.

BTW, did that phony 1,700 number first reach you through FoxNews, or do
you also frequent other anti-news sources?

They lied to you about that, too.

The big topics seem to be falling oil prices and the effect of US quantitative easing on global financial markets.

The real question is whether you will continue to trust the source that fed you those lies.
