The greatest threat to aviation and life as we know it is the large coffee producers continually increasing the amount of cheap and bitter coffee beans into their finished product.
The large market of flavored creamers is supported by these producers because it allows them to get away with the poor taste of the cheaper beans.
Certain coffee-only shops have bought into the cheaper beans and the decline in taste of their product shows.
The awful taste of these cheap blend products will cause pilots to drink less coffee. Drinking less coffee is a potentially catastrophic event because there is a trickle down effect. The pilot is tired and makes a bad landing. This makes the CEO in back mad and he fires the pilot. As he also is drinking the sorry excuse for coffee, he immediately goes to his secretary and decides to fire 1/8th of the company. The remaining workers, drinking the only coffee they can afford, the cheap blends, are not as productive. Company profits are down, and the CEO gets ousted by an angry board of directors, whose tempers are short due to the miserable coffee drunk at their meetings. Soon the company has massive losses and their stock price drops. This drop in price changes modest gains in the market to another bear day. Investors are drinking the poor excuse of a cup of coffee and decide not to invest. This keeps the stock market spiralling downward and the economy in a recession, so another company can't get the funds to buy good quality coffee to stock on board their corporate aircraft. The pilot drinks less of the horrible murk and is tired. He makes a bad landing.
However, any producer that advertises 100% Aracabia beans are required to have only the more expensive Arcabias and have paid their growers the appropriate price. The coffees are less bitter and require fewer additives to be drinkable.
