Andy Green, driver of BLOODHOUND SSC, talks about how he set the task of building a mock-up cockpit to a group of engineering students from the University of the West of England in February 2009. This activity forms just a small part of the large education programme that is an itegral part of the BLOODHOUND Project.

I would love to meet these guys. I like many have a huge respect for guys like these because I certainly wouldn't strap myself to a rocket! Andy and the team, make us proud!

Great video. Its wonderful that they are reaching out to budding engineers for this project, not just in the UK but spanning over 100 countries. Richard Noble mentioned how smart and eager the US students were, which demonstrates a fantastic outreach for something that is historically so internationally competitive.

It is fantastic! I think it is important also for engineers to "go beyond",to discover and to proove what`s actually possible for humans to do. First I thought "they have gone crazy this time", but then I saw the old team! Well, a bit crazy it is :) What a force..
