*** PREVIOUS RESULTS *** Last week, AVweb reminded readers that taxi-and-hold procedures have fallen out of favor at most airports – and asked our readers’ opinion on this change.
The majority of readers who responded were unhappy with the change. 53% of you chimed in to express your disapproval.
A substantial minority of our readership (22% of respondents) endorsed the change, saying It’s about time.
And a full one-quarter of you reported that you hadn’t even noticed.
*** THIS WEEK’S QUESTION ***
Missile defense for our airliners. Does the threat justify the expense of a defense?
