Region of Waterloo International Airport - YKF
(04-19-2017, 07:13 PM)MidTowner Wrote: I still doubt it makes sense here, and wouldn't imagine they would fill the plane too often. And, though I know this isn't a big consideration for many, the carbon footprint of flying ninety kilometres is significantly more than taking a car or train.

Best-case scenario: 8 pax, maybe 80L of fuel per flight (rated at 29.7 USg/h), so 10L/pax.  No worse than driving a largish car or mid-size SUV to downtown, assuming no carpooling.

Of course the carbon footprint goes up rapidly as the number of passengers drops.
