Is it really ATL Ontario in a CRJ?
I was just kidding. No ATL - Ontario is not currently serviced by CRJ....
UNTIL delta figures out how to get its external gas tanks approved. DL is proposing to use these one-use-only tanks on coast-to-coast flights (in order to reach their ultimate goal of a 100% CRJ fleet), and they plan on jettisoning the tanks somewhere over Oklahoma. Environmentalists are up in arms. Oklahoma would receive a hefty $50 per jettisoned tank that lands within state boundaries (of which $49 will go towards the Sooners athletic program). An extra $1 surcharge will be added to affected flights to cover any legal fees that would result in a jettisoned tank falling off course.
