Lardarse tax, anyone?

There should be an aggregated personal weight + baggage rate per person. This would then allow skinny buggers to trade off their spare capacity to the "San & Tray"s of this world and thereby reduce their personal travel costs

My first ever experience $hit me up for life, it was RAF and we heard a loud screaming noise from an engine and 'Biggles' up front calmly announced a 'bird strike', I left a pile of something on the seat that probably resembled the bird that hit the engine.

As long as it isn't during takeoff a modern jet can happily fly -1 engine.

It might cost him more if the weigh-in was as you got off, rather than on.
