This can happen in 2015 whoa

With outstanding view in the luxurious flying hotel should be one of most popular dream in the world.Specially,people who dreamed of futuristic life style might be ambitious about this kind of project.

Unfortunately,I am one of them.

It's so G~~~~~~ReaT!

What about my project(?)? See railgunmissile.blogg.no

Nice concept, but highly flammable HYDROGEN as fuel? The Hindenberg springs to mind....Not a good idea....

@drmartyn I agree-- I'm surprised they didn't lean more towards Helium. :O

Wow, thanks for shining a light on the subject! And, right: contollability- it looks like it'd blow around like a leaf in the wind. Reliability: it'd be a long march to make the helium cells as reliable as today's jet engines. Liability- the thing's going to hit turbulence sometimes, and then people are going to fall over unless you make them sit and then it's not a hotel anymore. Maybe a little too blue-sky a design. And a network of docking installations would cost a fortune.

A grand Idea ! Although Th e insurance companies would never insure the project.

@derekf900 But with strong composite materials, helium for lift and a little hydrogen rather than a lot of jet fuel, it'd be safe, right?

@mookins45 Perhaps. I love everything having to do with aviation and new and aviation technologies. The vision of developing something like this is wonderful and I support it. I just know how the FAA and the DOT operate, at least here in the USA. The video shows the concept which is a good start. Maybe the next video they will show a more technical aspect. Main systems such as controllability, back up systems, safety considerations, etc. I wonder how wind currents and weather will affect it.

@mookins45 Also, from an insurance standpoint and product liability. The lawyers FAA, NTSB and DOT would have a field day with this if there was an accident or incident. Could it even be insured ? In the 1920's and 30's no one thought of these things, nobody sued anyone, but in the 21st century things are a bit different. Can you imagine if the " Hotel " had a stability problem and someone fell down a flight of stairs or spilled a bit of coffee on themselves ?

@mookins45 One could say, it will be just like Cruise Line and in theory that's true. As a flying hotel, it's covered under completely different regulations. Operating in the sea of air is similar yet vastly different to the sea of water. Look back to the U.S. Zeppelins that were used by the Navy in the 1930's, they used helium. With new technologies some of those hazards could be avoided but the manufacturer will need to prove everything works well beyond the controlling agencies expectations.
