The US obviously tops the charts, but other notable mentions are China, Australia and Norway.

Climate emissions from air travel 50 per cent higher than reported

3.3h on the Hobbs during a post frontal day. Windy, gusty, thermals, bases at 3500 and fun! :) Got cheap fuel at Gustine, CA (3O1) where time stoppped. Pilot lounge was clean, fuel was cheap but ~all hangars were vacant and falling apart :( Runway is in good shape. Wanted to stop at E45 but ceilings were too low, so I swung by O22 where I crossed paths with "Youtube Pilots".

Innovative #EAB #autopilot (SuperEco) based on aerodynamic trim-tab actuation from Aircraft Automation.

Next time you hear Michael O'Leary's guff about sustainable aviation, remember this chart and the fact that Ryanair's CO2 emissions have increased by 23% over the last five years.
