good timing

Just a day after I complained pointed out that new military technology had seemingly reached the point where it wasn’t aiding the civilian world, IAG goes and writes about alternative fuels and how the U.S. Air Force is considering them. I’m beyond happy to read this – especially since they account for half of the government’s fossil fuel use. With the military’s high demand, the lower cost of producing ethanol for civilian applications will likely lower the overall prices.

Maybe we’ll find a use for stealth in airliners. Then I’d really eat my shoe.

It would make air traffic control displays easier to read.

True, but only if they were also using stealth transponders!
