FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION pushes new rules for flying in icy weather.

The new rules ... will test the design, performance and handling of these airplanes to certify them to fly through freezing rain and drizzle.

The FAA estimates the new safety requirements will cost industry more than $61 billion to comply with, but they could offer a public benefit worth more than $580 million.

Sixty-one billion spent to achieve a 'public benefit' of 580 million; that makes no sense whatever.
