Nice pictures Alex.
The sprawling parking desert lots now used for retired planes will need to be expanded significantly as the major airlines place more and more planes out of service. At some point they'll run out of parking spaces, I bet.

I've dug that lost america site for quite awhile, can spend hours there.
Don't like the reality of the people standing in gas lines. Big dichotomy between the two sets of imagery. |

I guess my question is to your premise,
Are we on the downslope?
Besides, this is the Current Energy News Forum -
Not the Post Your Favorite Picture Forum.
I think we have a forum for Stuff.

Sorry Pops. Please move to whichever Forum you think fits best.
As to a Premise? No premise, just an interesting link to some good photos that referenced peak oil. The Lost in America site has several picture threads I thought the group may enjoy.
