Southwest is proud to introduce our Green Plane today. No, the paint isnt green, (though there is a decal) and you probably cant tell much difference on the interior, but our Green Plane is a test lab of eco-friendly products that we are evaluating. What makes this so innovative is that we hope to be able to reduce the weight of the aircraft by up to five pounds per seat, saving fuel and reducing emissions while being good environmental stewards. Yes, environmental decisions can also make good business sense! And, we are the first airline to do something like this.

If you (SWA) want to reduce weight in order to save fuel and reduce costs, from a business sense, that's great! But to call it "green" and being "environmental stewards"---what a bunch of crap. Mand-made global warming is a hoax! At SFO they now have an ATM-type of machine where you can purchase "carbon credits" to offset your "carbon footprint" of your flight. WHAT A SCAM! i love SWA, but come on, knock off this green nonsense.
i love you southwest. i really do. but something about a time-lapse shot of people stripping the inside of a plane at high speed set to jazz music... makes me feel kind of.... unsafe? lol.... we'll keep up the good work anyway.

so how long does a strip of the interior like that take? and crazy to think almost all those parts have to get faa approval for use in an aircraft. that's a lot of stuff to keep track of.
