The only way humanity will progress is to use Nuclear followed by a complete farming of the energy from the sun.
So Nuclear is the only way until we can build a Dyson Sphere.
You may think this is extreme but it has already been demonstrated that you cannot build sufficient wind turbines to harness all our power needs, nor wave power.
There is also the law of diminishing returns. Wind turbine reliability and maintenance v cost v power. In other words when you have so many turbines the cost of maintenance will become prohibitive.
There is also the unsightly nature of them.
With the development of facilities that can recycle the waste from Nuclear power stations now coming online and the demonstrated reliability of new power stations I see that as the way forward.
Especially if we are serious about electric powered vehicles.

Airshows were different during the 80’s and 90’s.
We had more venues and more airshows. In the 90’s I could easily pick 20 shows to go to. Some months a show a week. We have also lost some nice venues like West Malling. Wroughton. Boscombe Down.
Warbirds were also a novelty. Not uncommon to find just a handfull at most shows like North Weald.
What we have lost is RAF participation due to loss of types. We have also lost a few stalworts like the Vintage Pair, RNHF, Mosquito.
I think the main thing we have lost is the family variety show. A mix of different types from Modern to vintage. Classic jets. Aerobatic. Pleasure. Civil. Display Teams. Parachuting.
I think some of the fun has dissapeared too. Acts like the Harvard Formation Team.
I also miss the famous commentator who use to commentate at Biggin Hill. I could listen to him all day.
So I now like to go to the smaller but more relaxed style of show. Old Warden, Lashenden, that sort.
I’ll still go to the bigger shows like Duxford but only if there is something special I want to see.

Facebook is down at the moment for large parts of Europe including the UK.

Didn’t 110’s form a defensive circle that was difficult to penetrate?
Also could it be argued that Hurricanes needed Spitfire escort to deal with the 109’s while the Hurricanes took on the bombers?

Can’t you restore the data plates but keep the wreck as a museum exhibit, or is that not allowed?
