i came to an epiphany.. fat people contribute to climate change more than skinny people in every single way. fat people uses more fuel when traveling (air, car, etc). fat people use more resources (example is a t-shirt, fat person's t shirt uses much more fabric, it takes more fuel to transport that t shirt because its heavier). And then fat people produce more waste.. when they throw away that t-shirt, it takes up more space in the garbage.
Makes sense in New Zealand if everyone is getting fatter there too. They are more likely to be flying very long flights. Taking off (or failing to) while overweight would be a bad crash. Not likely to be a factor at landing due to fuel burn.
Domestic flights in the US or continental European flights are highly unlikely to be at max weight just because they will not be loaded with as much cargo and not need a full load of fuel.
My understanding is that there's always at least two pilots so even if one catches a fatal case of the suddenlys I imagine it probably wouldn't lead to more crashes.
The airlines were pushing hard to eliminate the two pilot rule for a few years there. That push quietly ended when pilots started coming down with the suddenly’s.

Yep. If the environmentalists really cared about the environment they'd be all in on health and nuclear, among other things.
Too many fatties in the west that take-off is becoming an issue
And the islanders - Nauru, Cook and Palau are the chunkiest
That's actually normal for planes. Balancing is important.
If nobody is getting weighed, how is this being done with passengers?
But according to the article New Zealand airlines is the only one in the World weighting passengers.

Samoan air charges based on weight.
That's why I only get aisle seats. I'm not going to let myself be sandwiched between two of them or trapped in the corner of the window seat.
