Good point, you are right to point out that some good programs are still made. I think my point is still valid in that in many cases I believe the BBC management make programmes they wouldn’t want to watch themselves but think their audience would.

Four very different but equally interesting cars I have spotted lately. •Fiat X19 looking great in yellow •Denza Z9 GT- a Chinese electric saloon with over 1000 bhp •Jaguar XJ12 Coupe 1976 •BMW 3 series convertible converted to electric power using Nissan eNV200 motor batteries!

Because the BBC long ago stopped asking producers to make the best programmes they could, and instead asked them to make programmes that they thought their audience would like. Unfortunately they have no respect for their audience.

Lucky the Tu-160 wasn’t travelling near its maximum reported speed or altitude, the F-35 wouldn’t have got close!

“The English don’t like foreigners for the simple reason that they don’t like anyone, not even each other” Montesquieu c.1750 This observation by the 18th century French philosopher still seems pertinent today.

Your criticism of the layout maybe valid but the essence of the concept is not the thrust pod placement at wingtip. Or two huge wing mounted pods. The innovation is the detachable electric climb power units. It might be necessary to change their position but it is the principle that’s important!

The Gatwick Snapper @gatwicksnapper.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

Passive load alleviation- Very low aspect ratio composite blended wing body airframe less reliant on passive load alleviation than current airframe models.

The Gatwick Snapper @gatwicksnapper.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

Engine failure causing thrust asymmetry - Failure of one pod shuts down both. Pods detach. Onboard engines have sufficient thrust to return to airfield or alternate with reduced weight and drag of airframe without takeoff thrust pods.

The Gatwick Snapper @gatwicksnapper.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

I’m quite pleased with this AI interpretation of my concept of electric power pods that provide thrust and energy for takeoff and climb. Once the aircraft reach cruise altitude the pods return to a remote recharge facility before being returned to the airport for their next mission.

To the @bsky.app Airbus pilot community- You know when you are preparing for departure and you get those annoying NAV RA 1 or 2 faults on ECAM? This is often the cause. Loaders parked under your Rad Alt antennas. So chill, wait till loading’s done and your message will probably clear all by itself.

American Express’s perfectly presented G650ER. If I didn’t believe that executive jets were an environmentally destructive symbol of excessive cooperate greed, then I’d probably think this thing was pretty darn cool.
