I'm afraid that I have to yawn Joris ... and ask you to stop the endless circle of negativism on the Oranges.
They do good work which they cannot do without using planes now and then.
Turn the tide and begin to think a little bit more positive again and begin to nag a little bit less about almost everything the Oranges do!
