Not Enough Parking for Private Jets Going to UN Climate Conference
newsbusters
As climate alarmists from all over the world head to Bali to talk about the sacrifices regular folks have to make to save the planet from global warming, it seems certain media will ignore all the private jets clogging the tiny airport.
As if it’s not enough that the United Nations Climate Change Conference is being held at what NewsBusters reported as “a truly beautiful tropical island paradise,” the management of the nearby airport has issued a warning to attendees that they are going to have to park their private jets somewhere else.
Tempo Interaktif reports that Angkasa Pura – the management of Bali’s Ngurah Rai International Airport are concerned that the large number of additional private charter flights expected in Bali during the UN Conference on Climate Change (UNFCCC) December 3-15, 2007, will exceed the carrying capacity of apron areas. To meet the added demand for aircraft storage officials are allocating “parking space” at other airports in Indonesia.
The operational manager for Bali’s Airport, Azjar Effendi, says his 3 parking areas can only accommodate 15 planes, which means that some of the jets used by VIP delegations will only be allowed to disembark and embark their planes in Bali with parking provided at airports in Surabaya, Lombok, Jakarta and Makassar.
Wild Thing’s comment……….
While idiots like Al Gore tell us to stop wasting fuel he jets around throwing out tons of hot air and fuel exhaust not to mention heating his rather large house and all the energy it consumes.
….And this from SSgt. Steve, thank you so much……………….

“Major Khan to bombadier… our B-52 is denied authorization to land next to the Goreons so ARM the JDAMS and FIRE at will!”

Not Enough Parking for Private Jets at UN Clinate Conf.
Bali ????? They couldn’t meet in the ugliest building in the world, in New York ?
Whose paying for this fantasy trip, and whose buying their carbon offsets. This is irresponsible of the UN, but then again when did the UN ever accomplish anything or take responsibilty for anything. These parasites live off the rest of the world then demand accountability. What a bunch of hypocrites.
I posted a quote yesterday (Global Warming) that would have been PERFECT for this article.

Did Sky King and his niece Penny fly in for this conference?
Reading this article, I also thought immediately of the quote Steve posted yesterday. I also thought of Marie Antoinette’s infamous, “let them eat cake”. If only these climate alarmists would meet the same fate as Marie.
These people are supreme elitists now following their demagogue Al Gore, a man raised in an elitist and protected lifestyle.
Hypocrisy describes it best. Private aircraft ownership in itself is expensive, most of us can’t begin afford the insurance on a Cessna 150, nor afford a vacation to Bali. There’s hope, come on Krakatoa.
I’m still ticked that John John didn’t take Ted along to the wedding.
drstrangeloveb52isok…..Yesssss….”UNnecessary”
Mark they are total hypocrites. I am not sure who pays for all of this, but I bet we pay for a lot of it, their flights, the gas for the planes etc. grrrr
SSgt Steve I just now added your quote to the post itself, it is excellent.
Tom, oh yess good one. ” let them eat cake”.
And this is just the beginning of all this global warming baloney, it will probably get more stupid.
Jack, your right and I hate thinking that we are paying for all of this and I bet we are in our taxes.
