From George Ure's urbansurvival.com.


I received the following this weekend from a commercial airline captain:
"George, Saturday afternoon, just flew from Chicago to Orlando. do this often. Around 14000" a dark hazy level across the state (Florida) as far as I could see. Have never seen this before. There were T-storms north of Orlando that didn't seem to make any difference. Also, just north of Atlanta, for a short time at 33000' I smelt oil in the air. I am an airline pilot and am always in the air."

maybe BP can sponsor a marathon ... for their executives.

they can run along the coast in Louisiana and breathe in all the fumes they have created.

26 miles' worth.


i don't doubt this pilot's report of haze over Florida. i guess this is one of the first reports.
