πŸ€” maybe they seize the coastal area around the strait, and Trump imposes tariffs on each vessel passing through. The money could be directly sent to a Qatari bank. Thank you for your attention on this matter.

Wenn Sie... vom Fujairah Oil Terminal in Abu Dhai... mit zehn Minuten, ohne, dass Sie am Oil Terminal in Mina al-Fahal noch einchecken mΓΌssen, dann starten Sie im Grunde genommen in Mina al-Fahal ... am ... am Oil Terminal in Abu Dhabi starten Sie Ihre Fahrt. Zehn Minuten.

I let you imagine:

About 200.000t of oil...
(let say 200.000.000L ; it's more, but keep it simple)

While a tanker-truck is about 40.000L

1 tanker = 5.000 trucks
Where do you find 5k ?
500 x 10 ? ...but then: time ! About 10 days.

Also fuel consumption:
2.000.000L of diesel = $2M
And drivers...

I agree, the payload seems not to be too agressive and the range can be feasible. But developing a drone with the main purpose of flying in medium altitude civilian airspace without mentioning the word airspace even once on their website is odd. That will be the real challenge.

World’s first cargo drone airline prepares for take-off Goods have long been transported by land and sea, less by air. That could soon change, as the world’s first cargo drone fleet...

It is described as a remotely piloted aircraft flying mainly along preplaned routes with pilots monitoring and possibility to take over control.
However, I could find no article discussing an integration into civil airspace which makes me wonder how to fly in Europe

For comparison, this is a ~16m span, single engine, 1360kg payload, 1800km range piloted aircraft. (Cessna 208)

I was interested in the payload and range and found 350 kg and 2500 km.
With 16m span, it's between the 12m of a TB-2 (150kg payload) and the 20m of an MQ-9A (1700kg payload).

Two things are a bit sus: they give no MTOW and don't mention airspace integration once...for a civilian MALE.

I do not get it. Why should it be im Toulouse? Airbus DS builds satellites in Friedrichshafen and has a space design office in Ottobrunn. Like BW Sarah-1 (Synthetic Aperture Radar Sat).
Maybe some coms technology in Toulouse, but else? Is this information confirmed by a second source?

Absolut klar. Das war nur sehr zynisch. Es ist schon sehr ironisch, dass ausgerechnet Trump dafür sorgen kânnte, dass mehr Elektroautos verkauft werden und der CO2 Ausstoß allein schon aufgrund des Preisanstiegs sinken wird.

Wenn man zynisch sein will: wenn es Jahre anhÀlt, wÀre es gelebter Klimaschutz. Decarbonisierung, aber mit Minensperre in der Straße von Hormuz statt Klimakleber auf Asphalt.

5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open.

Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.
