I'm not too worried. If it weren't safe they wouldn't do it, especially agter 9-11.

Wow, the skies are going to be like the highways. Cram more vehicles into a smaller area.

Good call, but dammit I can put twice as many planes in the sky by allowing them to fly half the distance apart from each other!

My car is only used to get me places where my bicycle and skateboard can't. 84 miles everyday on a bicycle would suck.

Okay folks lets look at the evidence.

This is from the same link that was posted:



IN ANNOUNCING the rule change Wednesday, the Federal Aviation Administration said it will make U.S. high-altitude airspace consistent with that over Europe, Australia, Northern Canada and most of the North Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Caribbean and South American countries will join the United States and Southern Canada in implementing the new flight-separation rules, the FAA said.
Planes will be able to fly with at least 1,000 feet between them and planes above or below them when they�re between 29,000 and 41,000 feet. Now the distance must be 2,000 feet.
�This rule offers a combination of greater aviation safety, capacity and cost efficiency,� said FAA Administrator Marion Blakey.


Does anyone have any statistics regarding # of plane crashes over Europe, Australia, Northern Canada, and the North Atlantic and Pacific oceans? The best statistic would probably be one that shows # of crashes over an extended period of time, like several years. If they are implementing this new policy because it works so well in these other areas, fine by me. But if the plane crash rate is even twice what it is now in the domestic US, it will result in long-term LOSSES for the company.
