This is spot on, thanks. In fact I'm reasonably sure that it was 'docco' I was remembering having seen in the past. While digging around with your references I came across Pycco [1] which is a python optimized version of docc

Total CO2 seems to be for the flight, rather than per passenger ? That might be a good idea or a bad idea but, for me, it would seem to be more suited to private jets rather than scheduled flights ? I'm really not sure, it's for t

When I do that it doesn't make any difference to the Total CO2. I just did Glasgow/London and then added an extra Glasgow and the total didn't change. In any case, as I've mentioned elsewhere, the CO2 seems to be based o

Broadcast shortwave (and long wave) uses Amplitude Modulation, the term "AM" has been hijacked in some forms of English to mean "medium wave" but it's not what it means to radio engineers etc. I can't complain
