Russia's proxy war on Europe!

 Could these unnamed Hoaxes be More?

The U.S. Intelligence services are being very quiet as to who is behind this and what is the real agenda that is effecting Ryanair, Austrian airlines, Buzz, Wizz and Aer Lingus for starts, but these may spread to trains and buses and not just media outlets!

Everything that was learnt from the N-Ireland conflict is still applicable, since hoaxes were used add complacency leading to a real bomb that killed many?

So far the distruption is not causing much delay, people are getting from A to Z, but with holidays on in the U.S. and Christmas New year coming, things could really change!

A.I. is not Reliable!

 On has to wonder how many new aircraft have A.I.

Are these the technical glitches that Boeing has been struggling with over the years with the 737-MAX series and the 787-Dream liner?

It is hard to know if either Airbus and Embraer may have similar problems with their respective computer cockpit interfaces and also many others new and old!

It is a tough call when so much has been invested into robotic cars, electric shipping and various other area, that we could be trapped, as some have and killed by our own out of control data?

Missed the Swansea air show Again!

 Without the Red Arrows?

This year 200,000 thousand people made it, because of a date change and thus it proved to be different without the RAF Arrows that have been grounded due to technical issues!

But the show went ahead with many classic aircraft making the show from the DeHavilland Chipmunk to early British helicopters and the U.S. Grumman flying boat, with some of the usauls, such as the Euro fighter and various other displays.

So over all it proved to be good with our new Plaidd Nationalist government, that has not lasted long with the return of a Labor co-alition

Replacement Space Shuttle!

 It is on the way and much better than the last ones?

Lockheed is supposed to be building a new generation of far improved Shuttles, that will work along side existing technology and these machines may be part of the New Solar System fleet of craft, reaching Mars, Venus and further afield in the years to come!

Over coming gravity will be one plus for them, but the other is how do they deal with space dust and other materials hurtling by, that will rip the skins of these vessels, robot controlled or not?

The need to build and move cargo within our Solar System is not far away, as we expand out to the Moons of the giants and further afield, it will all look forward to some interesting times in the next fifty years of exploration!

Tunnel Boring!

 Machines that make tunnel under the Ground?

Ninety years ago these same machines were created for up to sixteen men to work within the rolling drum digging out the soil, rock, sand by hand and many were killed, either falling forward or back!

But today these boring machines are much bigger and longer, being automated, still crewed by with more safety at hand and they can with lasers work more accurately to also lay the framework of these tunnels with reinforced sections?

Eventually it is expected with A.I. that all types of machines with be robotic and serviced when out of operations, while all controls will come from a control room than the need for human intervention!

Currently the largest borers are building a underwater canal across China and other transport links, with motorways through mountain tunnels and bridges cutting time on land distant travel on winding roads and rail?

Giant Aircraft!

 Everyone has had a go at design and building?

From the 1920's Italy, the U.K. and America have thought about building large aircraft, but it was only Italy and Russia that got there with commercial types that actually flew beyond belief. 

But with the outbreak of World War-II (1939-45), everything change this large craft of years past were now to slow, so new ideas and concepts were put into place and being not so really big they worked?

Hughes built his giant flying boat taking a long standing world record, followed by the MARS that was only a water bomber until retired a few years ago. aircraft did get bigger with the coming of the Jet age, but people wanted more and so came the Boeing 747 Jumbo and many Lockheed military giants or deployment to Vietnam late 50;s to the early 70's!

The Soviet Union developed their own civil and military giants from the MIL-Mi 10, 12 and 26 to hold various records, the Antonov AN-22, An-125 and 225, which all still are in operation today with the Ilyushin IL-76, and civil IL-86/92.

Today the European Airbus have the A380-800 and the even newer A350-9/1000 that is pointing the future ahead?

NATO Costly pay for the Ukraine!

 No longer free weapons to fight Russia?

The U.S. is blaming the Ukraine leadership for keeping this war going based on nationalistic hatred, well that was the story from day one back in 2014 and not as the European media have been reporting their twisted history!

Despite the supply of old weapons, much that was good has been wasted for a symbol of German systems, wither they were good or bad?

But Russia is a super power and if they wanted they could take the lot if not also Poland, that keeps telling lies and at the same time trying to spread the regional security operation into a war with NATO!

But now the U.S. has stretched NATO having to pay for these needed weapons, while also deploying to protect Greenland, from being seized?

The world is more focused on Iran and many others places that may need military aide than the selfish high opinionated Kiev!
