Thoughts on airports. Airlines and waistlines

Why is it that just about every new airport that gets designed ends up being based on the shape of an aircraft wing? Boring. Don’t airport architects have any other ideas? What about other flying based themes? If I designed an airport it would be in the shape of an in-flightt meal. They are so cool with their little compartments. It would look amazing from the air. The container of water could be a giant glass carpark. The main course would be the main terminal the knife and fork could be a huge sculpture or water feature and in keeping with the in-flight meal tray theme the cheese could be a small yellow building that no one is ever able to open.

I have an idea that could revolutionise air travel. Everyone is into fitness right. So why not replace the seats with exercycles. People could pedal while they fly. It would be healthier than sitting on your arse. The whole deep vein thrombosis thing would be solved. You can get more exercycles into a plane and seats so that would be good for the airpline and no one want to eat while they are working out, so the airline would save money on the food as well.

EXERAIR – A healthier way to fly. Shrinking the cost of airtravel and your arse.
