>At E13 kg that's ~100 ml/m^2 of combusted applied continually as a >gaseous byproduct day and night over the year. Using your numbers I get something of the magnitude of 0.1 grams of fuel per m^2 per year and the assumptions are vastly exaggerated (*much* less than 1% wp fly per year and most flights are short, not long). The CO2 and carbon particle contribution from forest fires and volcanoes should swamp this by at least an order of magnitude.
