Airbus is Extending the A.220-200

 This original Canadian wonder, is now to become a -300

But is this worth the bother, since Airbus has taken the market with the current A.320-200 family and the newer version the A.230-200NX/LR?

The original A220-100 did not do so well as the 200, but the Europeans must see a market for the 300 series as older aircraft are being withdrawn and scrapped!

This Canadian original was blocked by President Trump, forcing the Canadians to sell it to Airbus and thus under Joe Biden the ban was lifted?

Unfortunately Boeing has not been successful as in times past of replacing the 737-100/300 series, but rather invest in the MAX, which has encouraged many countries around the world to turn to Embraer or Airbus and a few others!

Piracy!

 Not limited to the far and Middle-East?

Over recent years many yachts have disappeared in the Caribbean sea and off the coast of C-and S-America and it is believed that they were hijacked for various reason, kidnapping, used to smuggle drugs or just theft with the crews being murdered and dumped overboard! 

With this comes the use of drones on both sides of the criminal world more and the respective authorities in the region, since they are more pliable and cheaper to use to see what is lurking about more so at Night and are also capable of targeting?

The United States claims it wants to end the drug trade coming into the southern states, but it may also be to start another war this time with Venezuela with F-35 Jets being deployed in Puerto-Rico

Israels new Space Rocket!

 Communications and Spying?

A country like Israel needs to be up to date on knowing what is going on around it and in the Gaza strip, but these rockets are much more special than what other nations might be sending up or trying to maintain in space, costing millions!

It would seem that Israel wants nothing at this time to do with Musk and his antisemitism rantings, while the Trump administration is grumpy over Jerusalem refusing to share technology, but then how could you with unpredictable Trump?

Bezek is one of the best communications companies in the world and Israel needs to keep in contact with its diaspora to get them home at short notice and having their own GPS that is independent of other Gentile nations, that most Jews no longer trust with the their twisted political ideas of supporting the rights of the terrorists who killed 1500 people on October 7th 2023!

Hot air Balloons!

 Morning and Evening?

Despite the many modern materials and power plants things can still go horribly wrong as recently seen in Brazil, but also a bit of mystery fun in the U.K.!

This form of transport was around for at least one hundred years before flight and it is the Montpellier brothers that were famous for the start of French military aviation? 

This allowed them the ability to move orders, mail, guns and ammunition in three days on a flight that took over a week, depending on the weather by horse?

Following Frances novelty balloon, Germany set about developing their own, that lead on to the Zepplin airships, while the British were late to the field, but they had great success in South-Africa with their balloons and later airships or Durables from the R101!

Chamchat Earthquake in Eastern Russia!

 Loss of a Pacific Submarine base?

It  may be true that this base has been seriously damaged, but Russia has many in the region that one believes remained close to prying eyes and it is believed that much Uranium is mined in this region to sell on to France, U.S.A. and the U.K, with other precious metals, what about sanctions, what about them?

Losing one base might be sad, but this will not deter the largest submarine fleet in the world and the largest types ever built the Typhoon class! Russia and the former Soviet Union has had a long history of accidents and loss, but so has the west, only not reported?

Russia has a military philosophy in warfare that the sub is a better launch platform, than aircraft carries, since they can dive and disappear after firing cruise and ICBM missiles, more so than being a large fairy lights sitting duck?

Cyclist mini-towing micro Accommodation!

 Home-builds more common than Ever?

People are now finding it too expensive to get overnight accommodation and if they can, it may not be quiet as one would expect, budget or luxury! 

So many are turning to the micro homes that are for sleeping and preparing a basic meal or keeping out of the rain and other bad weather or just a rest from Cycling?

Many of these designs are no more than 2 meters long and one or just over four feet wide and have a gas burner, with flew, while having various electrical connections for a outside shower, toilet and others, while the weight empty for the road should be less than 8.5 Kilos and pulled by a E-Bike of individual choice?

Not many make the remit of having cooking facilities, three windows and a door and storage for bedding, coats and basic cloathing, radio, laptop, camera, and batteries, and other connections for powering up and limited lighting!

London Underground after twenty Years!

 Very little has changed with the Emergency Services?

Fifty two people died on the 7/7 2005 and four suicide bombers with 800 injured and over 1000 with psychological problems and in this period, even after Grenfell tower block fire the emergency services have not changed their policy and despite some coordination in communications another disaster would be the same!

The failure to improve is hard to understand and the lack of special equipment is sad, because its probably the Lord Mayors and the Government who refuses to finance this type of gear and vehicles?

It would seem in some cases life is of less value than others and tradition and routines refuses to modernize with the times and this is seen across many professions as people bury their heads in the sand to refuse taking responsibility!
