[@peterlovett5841]

I have been to a talk given by the man responsible for the care of the Australian ice runway at the Davis Antarctic base. There is a massive amount of care that goes into ensuring that the runway is kept in a pristine state; for example, a single drop of oil can cause a hole 1.5 metres across and 0.5 of a metre deep to develop in 24 hours because of the extra heating from the sun that it attracts so all vehicles going to the runway have to be decontaminated before being allowed onto the airstrip precinct. Braking action on the ice runway is actually quite good and the Australian runway does have GPS approaches but they have to be recalibrated every so often as the runway is built on a glacier and it is moving.

[@ibizenco]

I wonder how they kept the runway ice free.

Did they talk about how deicing works at all? I would assume they can't deice at all due to the 160°F+ Type I that is typically used, but I'm curious if they have a workaround in case of storms.

[@lennystalks422]

@Marvin Walter Aviation only accounts for 2% of global greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, planes are constantly getting more efficient and cleaner. Meanwhile, cars and trucks account for 10% of emissions and we are still judging cars by how powerful their engines are.

[@marvinwalter3713]

@@lennystalks422 Yes, I know and 2% is still to much and in order to save the earth we have to change our way of living. But people tend to find themselves more important then the bigger problems we are all facing when we continue doing this all just for our ego and fun. This is a shortcome of humanity. It's hard to change things that we used to do for years. We still find it normal to have cars with big engines and stuff like that...crazy when you think of the impact... It is an amazing machine for killing environments...

[@robins4209]

@@marvinwalter3713 If people would stop flying all of a sudden, the planes would stay as dirty for the environment as they currently are. To make technological advancements we have to experiment with the technology that we already have. Imagine if people stopped flying in the 50's, then we would still have planes with extremely dirty piston engines flying today. Aviation has come a long way to try to make flying cleaner, so trying to stop aviation is the same as trying to stop cleaner technological advancements. People are talking about Electric Planes, but how are we supposed to get there if we stop inventing and upgrading aviation? And by the way: What are the options? Travelling long distance overseas is done by either plane or ship. Try to figure out which one of those two is the dirtiest.

I think that's pretty cool. However, at 4:45 into the video, down at the bottom left of the screen, what should we see but an ancient Douglas DC-3. While I can't really see all that close up, I'm going to suggest that it's probably a Basler conversion. Flying since before WWII into the 21st century. Sure, it's cool to see the A340 being there, but the DC3 speaks volumes in and of itself.
