Thats another reason why the cap should be lifted if the next 15 mins block of flights have to be delayed because too many in the previous block which causes burning more fuel while on a hold point will just increase greenhouse gas emmisions, when we are trying to reduce our nations carbon footprint. not too mention will delay the public from getting from A to B which is really unneccesary. A plane should only be delayed for a mecanical fault not for a movement cap. Does arrival planes have to keep circling in the air until the cap is clear for landing also?
