Arrived with the 5th tunnel in Italy 🇮🇹 , dn1600 / 372 meter long .

A series of tunnels in Taiwan

Interesting talk. Interesting discussion about what insects are doing worldwide. China has massive floods ( 1 in 400 years and even some 1 in 1000), but nothing really on Australian news, what about your country? Is the animal kingdom sensing the effect of a weakening magnetosphere? https://lnkd.in/gWSgVAkg? Personal drone usage. look how to help and share. Look at what's being torn down in cities for data centres.

Have you ever wondered about the origin of "pan pan pan"?  The term PAN PAN PAN has its roots in French maritime radio communication. It comes from the French word "panne," which translates to "breakdown" or "failure." Initially used in maritime distress calls, it signaled a situation that was urgent but not immediately life-threatening. This is distinct from a mayday call which means that there is imminent danger to life. In the early days of aviation, radio communication adopted many maritime practices. As air travel evolved, so did the use of PAN PAN PAN in aviation distress calls.  Today, PAN PAN PAN is universally recognised in aviation as a signal of urgency.  You have probably heard about acronyms, but have you ever heard of a backronym (back acronym)? Me neither until I stumbled across it. A backronym is an acronym formed from an already existing word by expanding its letters into a phrase. PAN PAN PAN has a backronym—it stands for "Possible Assistance Needed" or "Pay Attention Now." #AviationHistory #PanPanPan

A tunnel / bridge between Sweden and Denmark ! State-of-the-Art…

Exactly 20 years ago, the Concorde supersonic bird ✈ performed its last flight. Some key features of this engineering masterpiece : => Delta wing design with 4 engines => mobile "nose" to facilitate pilots view and aerodinamic performance => 1st prototype flight - 2 mars 1969 => using this plane, the travel time between Paris and New York was only 3h30 (never reached after retirement from service) => supercruise speed 2 Mach (app. 2000 km/h) at 18000 m altitude If you want to learn more about this aviation symbol, I let this link below : #concorde #aviation #supersonic
