CONCORDE!

 Joint French-British Venture?

It is now the 50th anniversary of this supersonic civilian airline that was grounded after the Paris crash some 25 years ago, and despite many attempts to replace it nothing as yet has come to the fore!

The U.S. have a smaller test version, which is making some headway but as yet the past and present promises have come to nothing?

Over the years the billionaire Sir Richard Branson has wanted to restart the programmne but have been blocked by the British government, because after the accident at Paris, it was thought that the aircraft was vulnerable to ISIS inspired attacks!

Other reasons may have to do with aviation fuel consumption and zero carbon issues, the other is limited build and passengers, despite the Paris/London U.S. routes were the mainstay of the aircraft, with Singapore also operating it a replacement might go down very well if nations cooperated more so?

Pirated Crude!

 It will be hard to sell it On?

The U,S, now have five crude oil tankers seized and no one with any sense will want to buy them, since the sanctions on Venezuela are not UN, Congress or Internationally approved and the U.S. President is discovering it is hard to get rid of stolen goods!

His justification will not work for the oil companies ethos to both update and recover the industry, when it appears to be colonized and taken without a Internationally recognized treaty?

Meanwhile the capture of Greenland will be another headache for a leader who refuses now to drill and dig in his own backyard and create those promised Jobs.
