What China has to offer in civil Aviation?

 MC-21/C919.

These two new types will start to take the market world wide this year, if Boeing cannot get is act together? 

Russia has already grounded many of its Boeing fleet for its own types, such a the TU-204/14 and Sukhoi SU-100/200, while considering these new Chinese types.

China is progressing with firm orders already in place and even Embraer is suffering because of its links with Boeing over poor build quality and other electrical computing failures?

China does not have those issues and it has a good aviation history of safety, as well as well built aircraft and their own computer systems, much of which they share with Russia! Sales may not exceed those of the U.S. but many aircraft meeting the needs of the Asian continent will be met, with India, Iran and others!

Floating Homes. Part-Two.

Alternative Living.

So far many changes and ways to live have been adapted, but not many governments have taken the idea seriously as perhaps they should? Most people who enter countries as refugees end up in the homes that the local population does not want because of high crime areas and yet they then end up crying wolf?

This problem of building has remained in Europe and N-America now for over forty years, one can work out it has little to do with costs, but more with the rising value of the land to be developed for luxary tower blocks of unreachable normal pricing?

Some countries have tried many new ideas, but they are still limited to spacial projects for certain types of successful peoples. One reason for the failure to adapt this idea has to do with the laws on river boat traffic, but them many governments do very little to improve the plethora of damp and decreped land properties that already exist?

Harvestors. Part-Two.

Big Business.

Today there is now nearly a harvesting machine for every crop that can be sown/planted on farms, vine-yards, cane plantations and paddy-fields. The day of the cropper has arrived, thus cutting the need to employ vast numbers of people to pick.

In some cases picking by hand is still preferred, especially with soft fruits and asparagus this is because their is a demand by the supermarket chains for quality in appearance. Many new kinds of harvesting machines have been designed to pick, pull and twist and capable of covering a wide area.

The initial machines of say thirty to forty years ago have now been well classed out, but sizes and quality of farm machinery remains to the cost of purchase and the types that are needed.
