Until recently, the energy intensity of domestic flying was higher than the energy intensity of driving light-duty vehicles (cars and light trucks). However, the energy intensity of flying became lower than that of long-wheel-base light-duty vehicles starting in 1995, and of short-wheel-base light-duty vehicles starting in 2005. (A
