Phd project

Sounds like a great project for a PhD candidate (seriously) : model the behavior of this hybrid beast using the latest CFD (computational fluid dynamics) advances to predict behaviors and suggest software for managing it. Someday we might be using airships to navigate Mars and Titan....modeling the behavior of such a hybrid beast in gusty England might give us some insight.
