This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Well, an airport can only handle so much traffic, but... by spade
Who thinks that while these chartered, more-or-less-commercial flights have been cancelled due to inability to allocate landing times, that all FIFA bigwigs and the Sepp Blatter's of the world have the remaining landing times at Boryspil International (KBP)?
I bet UEFA and FIFA can get all their little private charters in no problem. That's the bigger issue here.
Also, Kiev International(IEV) is located in the capital, but it does only 1/10 of the traffic of Boryspil and much smaller aircraft. Only 1 runway, 7500 feet, not long enough for major aircraft. Here is where a lot of the private rich-ies will be landing as well.
