Fly AirAsia/Malaysia or Qantas or Do You Drive ?

Critical changes needed to reduce transportation accidents and save lives


Those who fly Malaysian Airlines or AirAsia, should consider Flying Qantas, the Safest Airline in the World, with Zero Fatalities. Qantas has never had a fatal jet airliner accident.  Before 2014, Malaysia Airlines had an excellent safety record.

There have been 761 deaths in 12 commercial aviation accidents globally in 2014with a total of all Commercial Flying at 1320 lives lost.

The following 3 Flights - 699 lives lost
  • Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 - unknown cause - 239 lost - 8 March 2014
  • Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 - shot down - 289 aboard - 17 July 2014
  • AirAsia Flight QZ8501- co-pilot at controls when plane crashed cause Pending - 162 lost - 28 Dec 2014
The Loss is great, in comparison to other Loss of Life Events
  • Americans in Iraq & Afghanistan in 13 years since 2001 - 6,717 US Military died
My conclusion would be that the Military is Safer, than Flying or Driving. 

Other Airlines should take notice of how Qantas does it, I do not think Luck is the Answer for Zero Fatalities.

Another thought why wouldn't more Commercial Pilots wish to fly for Qantas ?

"Fly Qantas Increase your chances of Survival" 

However if You, Family or Friends Fly what would be your choice.

Annual Global Road Crash Statistics - Nearly 1.3 million people die in road crashes each year, on average 3,287 deaths a day.

When did it all begin...

The first fatal aviation accident was the crash of a Rozière balloon near Wimereux, France, on June 15, 1785, killing its inventor Jean-François Pilâtre de Rozier as well as the other occupant, Pierre Romain.

The first involving a powered aircraft was the crash of a Wright Model A aircraft at Fort Myer, Virginia, USA, on September 17, 1908, injuring its co-inventor and pilot, Orville Wright, and killing the passenger, Signal Corps Lieutenant Thomas Selfridge.

Wireless Charging Home, Office or

Anywhere, via WiTricity! ?




Battery Life of about any Device Sucks Now (see Super Capacitors section below)...and does this mean a WiTricity device as a AW-DC Charging Hub Transmitter (AWDCCHT) needs Uninterruptible Power Supply, in the event of an A/C Power Outage?

A Device that is Mobile/Portable (Cell Phone/Laptop) which is out of range of the AWDCCHT needs a Battery.  Range of a AWDCCHT is about 15-20 feet as the RF (radio frequency) transmitted are converted to DC power.  However, any device needs to have a Receiver.

Does this mean my TV requires a battery ?, or the passing of radio waves from the AWDCCHT Hub to the TV (which has coils to receive this energy) powers the TV ?

Will a Neighbor have a device or way to use my Wireless Charging Radio Waves ?

What are the affects on the Human Body with all this Air Energy passing through the bod...cause Cancer, Brain damage, or would you feel tingly all over.

WiFi Charging


Super Capacitors Charge Your Cell Phone In 5 Seconds or charge an electric car in about a minute. Super Capacitors are in-expensive/cheaper, biodegradable, and never wear out.

Supercapacitors currently power a Tram in France (with no overhead wires)

Supercapacitors are unique in that they are able to combine the energy storage properties of batteries with the power discharge characteristics of capacitors. 

Supercapacitors can be completely discharged without reducing their service life 

Extends battery run time
Provides backup power
Enables design to meet current specifications
Lessens RF noise by eliminating DC/DC
Allows low/high temperature operation
Minimizes space requirements
Reduces battery size
Enhances load balancing when used in parallel with a battery

Meets environmental standards 

Now if we can harness Energy from the Air & Sun and power everything in our Home, without the Electric Company.  What will the Future Hold ?

Gasoline is at its Lowest in 6 Years & For How Long

Why this is: To Promote Spending by Stimulating the Economy...America is a Nation on the Move...

...if Fuel prices are More, then vehicle travel is Less...less People/Families will Vacation at Our National and Amusement Parks, Less Shopping..less Vehicle Travel means stopping at the pumps for Fuel and many Service Stations have Convenience Stores, Fast Food Service, not Oil, Mechanical & Tire Service.

Less Vehicle Travel & Vacationing by Motor-homes, pulling Travel Trailers & Boats, visiting Camp Grounds, Lakes and Rivers...Less Vehicle Usage means Less Vehicle Repairs are needed and Vehicle Sales are Less...

...Less Aviation Fuel Cost means Flying is Cheaper...Higher Aviation Fuel means the More you Pay to Fly.

Airlines already are looking to Charge You Extra for Luggage, Snacks, etc...less room, as they add Seating to get more Fares on the same flight.  I am surprised there are not Pay Toilets on Airlines or they charge for the Air you Breathe.

All this means Stores, Entrepreneurs, Commercial Business Lose Revenue = Loss of Jobs.  Alternate Fuel Vehicles cost more than the Gas Drive Vehicle...sure they say Cleaner Air if we drove Less.

What would Environmentalist do, if there was less and less driving, more alternate fuel vehicles on the road, less industrial production, less tire making, less need for oil.

Going Green, does this create more Jobs...More Expensive Fuel means our Food Products go up in Cost.

Less Driving, means Road Repair, Bridges, etc...would require less maintenance and if we had Self Driving Vehicles Less Accidents, Less the Need for Fire, Police and Medical demands.

I am sure you can think of more Less of...however Growth in Population means more land to produce food is needed...which means more People wanting to Drive.

And if we had no Fuel, what would happen to all Air Vehicles, Trains, Tractor Trailers, Ships and the Vehicle(s) you Own/Rent/Lease and back to Push Mowers to cut the lawn.

What would Life be Like without....

...Auto Racing, Off Roading, RVing, how will the Fire, Police or Ambulance respond to your Accident at Work, Home, Play, even to your Doctor Appointment...what happens to Air Travel of any kind...there goes Airports, Shipyards, Shipping Hubs, AmTrak...sorry Golfers, no lawn mowing...Tractors & Combines, No Crop Dusting. No UPS, FedEx, Postal Delivery all on Foot...Drug Cartels have to walk your illegal drugs everywhere.  What about transportation of illegal firearms...International Space Station you are on your own

Vacation On Another Planet ?

As we attempt to inhabit Mars, why, what is there to look forward to, no Oceans, no 7 Wonders of Mars, a Grand Canyon as we know it, No Forests, Snow capped Mountains, Lakes, Boating, Fishing & Hunting, Swimming, etc...so the only people to enjoy nothing, are those who endure the Deserts of Earth now.

Already companies are planning Vacations on Other Planets...will there be Transportation, GPS to help navigate these Other Planets, a Tour Guide ?

...how long would it take us to get to the closest Vacation Planet, several years ? 

travel 0-3500 mph in 3.5 sec's, once out of Earth's Atmosphere, speeds up to 20,000 mph and Beyond


...and when you get back to Earth after, will you feel like you never Vacationed at all, are you left Tired returning to Work.

...how much is the cost for such a vacation to another planet ?






Do these Vacationers space hop from one Space Station to another or Start to Star ?

as we have Wars on Earth...will Star Wars become real ?

How about We Clean up Earth, reduce Pollution, Save Our Planet and...Lets Stay Here and enjoy Our Environment...all the money spent going into Space could be better used here on Earth, starting with Pay Raises for All Blue Collar Workers
