And this is of course before we get into the latent heat for phase change. If there is global warming of 3c, how much ice in Greenland melts starting from -10c. Answer - nothing. the ice is now -7c. So we warm the atmosphere in Greenland another 7c. We are now way, way past the most hysterical predictions. 1c more degree and we get water? No. We now have to pump much more energy into it than simply raising the temperature for the phase change.

Ice 2.1 kj/kg/K, latent heat of fusion 334 kj/kg/K, then water is 4.2kj/kg/K

Again, basic physics which makes a total mockery of huge claims of the environmentalists, but you will never here the claims of sea level rises or melting this that ot the other being challenged.

Nic92 - for many years, over a decade, it was referred to exclusively, the north pole is melting therefore sea level is rising. As it finally got through to broadcasters this was rubbish, then alternative sources of water have been used. Water of the land compared to the volume of the oceans, there just isn't enough and most of the ice in the antarctic is on land. It was a major error in reporting but it has been quietly side stepped and now the main reference is claiming that warmer water leads to thermal expansion which is supposed to raise the sea level. That to is rubbish as the thermal expansion is way to small. A weather system depression alters sea level height more than any thermal expansion. That is if there is any provable changes in sea temperatures.

and the con I am talking about before somebody starts, is the deliberate interchangeability of 'carbon' and 'co2'. Inflated co2 numbers are then used as the measurement for 'carbon footprints' without the adjustments.

..... and bear in mind..... there are plenty of people around who know this kind of fact in chemistry.... do you ever hear the media seeking clarification on the environmentalist propaganda? No. Just like with falsehood about the north pole melting causing sea levels to rise despite the Archimedes principle, there is a collective burying of heads. It has got too big to admit there has been a massive error reporting of all the co2 propaganda, an over reporting factor of 3.67 to be precise!

You will not see any corrections anywhere or being sought. Nobody is allowed to point out in public on a mass media platform or broadcast how the huge big lies are made. Yet, the information is simple and right in front of everybody.

In advance of cop, here is an information leaflet that gives a good example of how the inflated co2 figures are derived that are used in the spurious environmentalists claims. Now this fact sheet is for the internal combustion engine, I couldn't find one as clear for a jet engine. However, the overall principle is the same - the numbers will be different. The weight of the co2 produced being more than the weight of the fuel carried. Those inflated numbers, of co2 - not c - are then used against the industry, although they are completely false and misleading. It is well worthwhile reading this one page leaflet. It is 'eyebrow raising'.

And it could all be posturing tactics. Although a return to the 70's with unions breaking the back of industry does seem to be coming back around.....

This one, sorry

20th Sep

Work? A few hours inventory maybe this afternoon if I can be bothered. Might be some dispatch. I might even bother getting dressed at some point, lol.

Glad to educate you - always good to learn.

21st June, definitely not new news

I really shouldn't be making fun because a lot of poor sods were completely swept up in the severe ramping buying in at the top of the 160's lower 170's and now fin they can barely cover their broker fees if they need to escape.

I see there are no willy wavers out in the playground anymore.

And let that be a lesson to the less experienced. See how you were suckered in to it. With a bit of luck there won't be a further dilution with a debt for equity swap, with luck, and the sp will move to a new level when all the details over the resumption of travel to the US is revealed.

But you now have to decide what you are going to do in November, cop26 hysteria. Inform yourself and do not let yourself get carried away with megaphone ramping in a chat room where only one person can be identified, the one who [laughs] uses the same avatar as his twitter name and can't understand how he was named.... THAT is the level of sophistication of many of the rampers and derampers.

Oh yeah? Predicted drop? errr.... when did any of you daydreamers predict this?

Looking around the travel sector/airline sp..... back to being traded as a block again with similar movements. For me this is great news. The big uplift anticipated on the reopening of the US routes has only been partially achieved. The lack of details, which end of November, test regime, potential sabotage opportunities and the rest coupled with IAG financing reservations have limited the market response.

So when I get my new allocation with Easy J and the sell price is good, there should be a 2-3 week window to switcheroo to IAG depending on no financial news dilution and before the fine details on the opening up of travel resumes. If it is the end of November as stated currently on the UK gov travel info, then there will be a small gain to be made, bigger if that is brought forward. Then dump everything ahead of cop26 madness and hysteria. The window is small and delays to info may mean no switcheroo is possible before cop26. No charts, no coloured crayons, no air licking. Just 360 and a diary.

'ere we go..... it's all the pesky market makers fault. Tree shaking is it? mm do not manipulate the market as often described on bbs like this one. It is a fantasy world created by gamblers to rationalize their losses, paper or otherwise. Admitting they got it wrong is not an option, either Big Blue miss-sold them or the market maker was moving against them, personally.

Enlighten yourselves;

That LLoyd, is EXACTLY as it has been ramped. It is now Thursday and it is becoming clear the average trading plateau is only in the low 170's. I think I know why, as previously posted, but nobody is interested so I won't be re-explaining it today. Lots to do.

You've all gone very quiet! Cat got your tongues?

Or has the geometric progression tended to the limit already?

And some of you have the bloody cheek to mock me!

Bull, the fuel crisis in the 70s taught airlines to demand ever improving efficiency. Ironically the most fuel efficient aeroplane of the day, concorde, lost out the biggest form the 70s crisis. Fossil fuel will run out one day. There are many claims that peak oil has already been reached. I am all for alternative propulsion systems being introduced. I had expected adding pure oxygen to be the next step, either extracting from the air as you fly or carrying in tanks. From there, forms of synthetic aviation fuel derived from some sort of algae or plant decomposition being developed. The ocean farm has a huge footprint for such crop production. And for other fossil fuel use, a gradual switch over to alternatives. Hydrogen has to be cooled, stored and carried around next to absolute zero, that requires a large amount energy and is exceptionally dangerous. Battery technology needs a huge leap in concept before it is truly to be considered for flying aeroplanes, and there is still the issue of the landing weight as the batteries [current technology] do not lose mass as power is consumed.

The issue is the 'urgency' business which has come about in the last few years. All of this to be accomplished in a matter of a few years despite the technologies, even for EVs, is a long way of the mark. And because the changes can not be implemented tomorrow then the 'urgency' agenda looks at other mechanisms to redress the panic - and we end up with forced targets, like the ev target in just a little over 8 years time. For aviation, the forced target can only be achieved with a drastic cut back in miles flown.

As for large companies swallowing up smaller ones, that would be the case under 'normal' tech development. But this is not a business or market driven situation. It is a faith, cult, ideological drive. Market logic has already been throw out of the window with turbines. Lots and lots of warnings that there isn't enough wind in our part of the world, but policy rather than market rational intervened and the turbines are generating well below par and the gas producers know it. We can't fire up coal power stations that are long gone. The planning stalls on nuclear have left us with a dangerous energy gap. And this method of policy making is now approaching transport and the next skittle to knocked over is aviation. There is no rational opposing voice and the pandemic showed, the voice of the industry can be simply dismissed without forfeit.

It is fascinating just how many people do not want to allow any disruption of their inner dialogue. Everything is blacked out. To face actual real world facts is such a trauma, not only are blinkers applied, but full blackout eye patches are worn. It is no wonder so many of you keep walking straight off a cliff. For those with a little more perception, the narratives and events in the wider real world are just as important and have to be evaluated. What do you think all those teams of analysts do all day every day in the iis office blocks? The extent of the decision matrices developed at professional level is quite mind boggling - and they are on 7 year economic cycles at times. Every single individual point I have ever raised is a valid input ot that decision making matrix. Apply your own weighting, of course. But to dismiss and pretend these points do not matter or are not apart of the big picture is just plain reckless. This is a 'share chat' board. Everything and anything that may affect the sp is valid, and a little banter along the way is perfectly sane - isn't that right benji boy, had your sugar puffs yet?

I don't have a problem, my mother had me tested!
