- notfromhere 2mo agoplanes fly above the weather, so kinda irrelevant. you can cross the atlantic fast with something like the Concorde
- embedding-shape 2mo agoWell, that explains why even cyclones don't make us faster! Obviously the technology I'm talking about would involve the planes going into the cyclone so plane can go faster.
- fallingbananna 2mo agoI don't mean to be disrespectful... but, why would you consider tech intended to save lives and resources less of a deal, than slightly faster flights over the Atlantic?
- embedding-shape 2mo agoNo disrespect taken :) It was (obviously) a joke, I'm not seriously waiting for us to hurl airplanes through cyclones to make air travel faster.
