  1. These air craft duralumin alloy bodies are valuable for recycling and for making brand new kind electric airplane ✈️ that also contain satellite 🛰️ remote sensing technology radar for GPS navigation system ❤😂🎉😢😢😮😅

  3. Go woke Go broke.
    This nothing to what the deep state are doing to the dumb people running this world. People go against the true creator Yahweh and this is what happens. Faulse preachers. Shalom.

  13. No planes flying,,, no fuel usage,, which is great…. bring fuel prices down, way down. because it is not being used,,, no demand.

  16. It is not the end of the world. Flying must start up since a vaccine has been found against COVID19. More should be done to have airports with vaccine centers for passengers who need to be vaccinated. SOPs should be kept up so that humans learn to live with such a brutal disease of the lungs. Humans try to survive on this planet not because it is easy, but because it is difficult. That is the advice of the Americans.

  18. The side effects of the current airlines have huge amount of heat emission which is the main cause of wildfires accelerating the warm weather on earth recently.Thus future airplanes should have less heat emission.

  20. It is my professional opinion and recommendations to the aviation excellence that still holds such valid safety insecurity to the FAA Federal aviation administration the economics report of the 1950s we had been known to receive two movie tickets to sodas in a popcorn for the amount of 5 cents today in 2021 this price had significantly increased to $50 that is 1,000% increase over the last 71 years if today's $50 turns into tomorrow's $50,000 you must acknowledge the duties and responsibilities of the citizens of the United States of America who hold diplomacy for the educational excellence for a high school diploma who out of the respected adults would be offering to send their children to go to the movies when it's $50,000 I certainly will not be able to send any of my children to the movies in the next 71 years as this is very alarming that the price of goods for entertainment had skyrocketed but did not meet the minimum wage requirement for the price of goods if you apply the 1000% of the minimum wage of the 1950s at 50 cents per hour minimum wage would be about $500 an hour certainly nobody would have a problem going anywhere around the world if the community had realized that we strive here America enforceable civil rights pilots find a territory of the globe that is not offering to be very civilized they are responsible for their passengers that they drop off in airports as demonstrated to the United States minted coins of 2010 I had reviewed a judicial officer suffering from a medical condition called racism persuade judgment to Victor one flesh or ethnic group to the other is a serious and terrible disease my declared Embassy of the United States of America is located at 1635 Ingalls Lakewood Edgewater Denver as scoutmaster and senior patrol leader to the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of America where we had assembled 30 years ago 500,000 Scouts had paid their ticket for $2,500 as equally matched through the department of War to ensure such civil rights were civilized when it came to enforceable civilian territory if no proper justification of judgment could be found in the territory of Jefferson County Colorado I'll be seeking more grounding of such aircrafts to offer the protection to our skyscrapers buildings that are not eligible for other countries to fly our aircrafts into our structures. As I applied my science today as jamboree assistant director to the 30th year anniversary bridge To The Future we had invested in many different public structures demonstrated of the year of 1995 for 1 million the Denver public library across the street the Supreme Court of Appeals was constructed of the year 2013 for 600 million this allows my investment of the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of America to successfully grow to a thousand percent return in less than 30 years. As Commander I hope my engineers offer their time that are not using the time in our friendly skies to start designing disaster relief areas offering a padded runway for malfunction of landing gear and engine failure as the oath of the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of America to be prepared to allow all things to be considered please consider to plan for the worst and hope for the best. As we hope to implement the new recovery for lost aircrafts in international waters for quicker pinpoint accuracy of Skyhawk recovery international waters is known to the world is not any countries responsibility for picking aircrafts as I hope and plan to assemble all the world collected countries of the world's Republic to offer assistance recovering airplanes in international waters for the safety of our precious pilots and flight crew and most importantly emphasize our passengers who fly the friendly skies.

  22. I would like to know what iT cost to store an A380 and a 737 in Victorville and the cost to store planes in the Alice (Alice Springs northern territory AU)

  33. Sa lahat ng may mga busilak na puso na nanonood dito ❤️ sana po ay masuportahan nyo din po ang aking channel. Naniniwala pa din ako na marami pa rin tao ang busilak ang kalooban 🙏😊

  34. Actually… It IS like "parking a car". If you DON'T properly prepare and yes maintain a car it will be require an incredible amount of reconditioning to make it "roadworthy" again.

  38. Very soon aluminum prices will reduce dramatically due to the fact that air transportation is almost dead. Governed by the climate lobby, Sars-Covid came at the right time. 1000nds of aircraft will be scrapped as similar to the megalomania cruise ships.

  41. soon we are back to sustainible pre first worldwar conditions – and the market only for the Olligarchs…. they fly with zeppelins round he globe… filled with Helium again…. instead of the cruiseships for everybody – they will lift the Titanic…. or rebuild it…. put sails on it…. and only first class and – under waterlin – the minions and handlers they need…. out of business…. the planes never come back….
