Society would adjust. No one has denied a downturn in the economy. But it would be temporary, at best.

Yes, adjust as in living in a new state of chaos and anarchy.
I honestly can't tell if you're trolling because of the ridiculousness of the post.

Not trolling. It's consistent with my general view of humanity that it would take very little to upset the status quo and drive everyone to chaos. If you have a better view of the human race, you'll disagree.

See, here's my conundrum. I totally agree with ATN when he tells Cherokee_Cruiser and others they are being obtuse in regards to firearms, yet totally disagree with him on this issue because I believe he's being obtuse himself in this matter.

A Battle of Britain commemoration flypast by 20 Spitfires over London has been cancelled after the Shoreham air disaster made the cost of insuring the event unaffordable.

Unfortunately, yes.
He was pretty well known/popular around my home airport. Such a shame.
I haven't been to an airshow in ages, and I'd probably still enjoy them to a degree, but as I get older and see more of these types of accidents, they've definitely kind of lost their appeal to me.

We actually did Dissimilar formation with two Spits... so 2x F-15Es and 2x Spitfires for the Battle of Britain 75th Anniversary over Duxford. Lots of Spits and Hurricanes flying around. Was a great time.

In August 1940, the German Air Force began its mass bomber attacks on British airfields, harbors, aircraft factories and radar stations. During the next three months the Royal Air Force lost 792 planes and over 500 pilots were killed. 1,547 allied aircraft were lost during the Battle of Britain.
"We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask, What is our policy? I will say; It is to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us: to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy. You ask, What is our aim? I can answer with one word: Victory - victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival.
What General Weygand called the Battle of France is over. I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin. Upon this battle depends the survival of Christian civilization. Upon it depends our own British life and the long continuity of our institutions and our Empire. The whole fury and might of the enemy must very soon be turned on us now. Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this island or lose the war. If we can stand up to him, all Europe may be free and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands. But if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age, made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will say, "This was their finest hour." --Sir Winston Churchill

It is important to remember, despite the cost that sometimes brings.

ah...... Minute 16:45 of the first video is our form I was talking about.... it was kinda far I admit, but there were some external factors affecting that... One of which was an air ambulance flight going on right under the highway....
