When i thought i'd seen it all........ Dreamers !

[mcoates]

Here we go again, a new aircraft to beat all other concept aircraft and everything else.

Tell him he's dreaming! What's he want for it, anyway?

One line of the article tells the story:

Abhishek works in Mumbai, India, for Lunatic Koncepts.

You may well say he is dreaming but dreamers made the internal combustion engine, the motor car, the aeroplane and space travel, just to name a few.

Without dreamers you get ...... nothing!
Dreamers have made everything.

Good on the 'dreamers'. Very futuristic.
I hope he has big heaps of money to see it through to fruition.

The "heaps of money" comment may be a clue - these kind of things tend to get a mention in as much media as they can buy before prospectuses start landing on desks. Cue years of "development" work in a tax friendly environment, with the occasional added bonus of government innovation funding and it becomes a nice living for a couple of people. Call me cynical, just don't call me late for dinner...

[Flying Binghi]

Hmmm... India. Young demographic, still high family values, increasingly well educated in computer related industry's = Inovation KA-BOOM...

I'd dispute that. All those inventions were made by innovative skilled engineers with vision, and none by kids with star-wars imaginations, vast computer graphic skills and not a shred of knowledge of engineering, aviation or the state of aviation technology (hydrogen for instance) like this fellow. Dreamer, yes he is. But he won't ever produce a vialble aircraft design this way.
Jet thrust measured in Ft Lbs is it? This is such a basic blunder it indicates engineering knowledge at schoolboy level, and not even a well read schoolboy at that.
He's a good graphic artist and dreamer. Little more.

I reckon that the guy's all torque and no action..
