saaphiere: Runway is runway whether airport runway or field. The major goal for this invention is to beat traffic. Isn't it? Of what use is it then if you can't stay in the middle of a traffic and take off?

It can take off from major ways which will serve as runway, I nor any open space the length if it take of space, it does not necessary means airport runway.
It those not mean normal runway, at least you can take off from free way that is up to 1000 ft open with no obstruction in site. This car have been in development for so long that I have even forgotten about it.
victorazyvictor: do they even know what is 15,000 ft, is equivalent to 4miles and only one rifle newly produced by Russians military can attend to that.
we are not talking about newly produced Russian riffle not verified yet, we are talking of Nigeria Army riffles here.
ugwum007: I didn't mention any range here. If you are asking why will military use armour piercing rounds on protesters, you should also ask why were the military there and why were they shooting even if it is bangers.
Stand under bread fruit tree, let it hit you. Then you will understand.
Normal riffle is more than enough to do damage, armoured piercing round is not a cheap rounds to use, and you are not fighting bullet proof body.

ugwum007: Those rounds were looking like amour piercing rounds and can't be from AK-47. The wounds I saw online were looking like motor accident sounds which means that the rounds were actually tearing people apart.
Amour piercing rounds are more deadly and can travel a far more distance
Another misinformation. Armour piercing round or not, as far its the regular military rifle, it can't get to 5000ft talk less of 15,000ft. And what you say you saw is amour piercing rounds its not, ak7 can tear one apart in a close range. And why would the military use armour piercing round protesters, did the protesters came with armoured body lolz.
Faithful007: man, I get you. That's when they are fired straight, when you fire a gun a lot degrees up, things get very interesting. The trajectory changes and it goes a lot farther. It will not hit ground easily as straight fired bullet, rather keeps going till gravity brings the velocity to zero. Then it begins to fall back, it straightens due to streamlined shape and picks up speed due to g-force, it becomes deadly again and can do damage. Have you not heard of people saying that a bullet struck through their house without them even being near the gunshot at all?
Please don't try to change the narrative or argument at hand, The argument was that bullet our military used can get to 15,000 ft you said, only anti aircraft guns can attain such height and above. Ak47 can't get to 3000ft, talkless of 5000ft , not even to mention 15,000ft.
Faithful007: I'm the one who wrote that. In my reply I still meant to say 15,000ft. The 1500feet was a mistake, bullets will double that in a second. Just take a little time and research on what I said.
Please still misinformation, unless anti aircraft gun, the weapon soldiers use like the Ak47 can't get to 5000ft talk less of 15,000ft, before I quote you, I'm very well informed about that.
let me just break it down for you, effective range of the weapon our army uses in terms of higher is 1300ft, and it could get to above 2700ft but not effective rage.
only anti aircraft gun can achieve such night and above (15,000ft).
Police helicopter can easily take out anyone using ak47 at 3500ft, because you bullet from down below using ak47 can never get to that height.
50Calibre can get to 11,000 and above.
I hope that helps so you will know the differences between Anti Aircraft Gun and normal Aks.
Faithful007: bullets can approach that height. 1500ft is still too low for planes which travel at 35000ft, so they are not a threat to planes. It is not misinformation, research it.
Please read well next time before you reply, he wrote 15,000ft and not 1,500ft hence my reply for misinforming people, thank you.
Faithful007: They are fired up to 15000 feet at 1500m/s. They fall back at 200m/s and can still be quite deadly, that's why people are killed by stray bullets.
. Misinformation! As far as its not Anti Aircraft Gun, it can't get to 5000ft talk less of 15,000, you people should take this your misinformation easy
MickzyDonald: Pls read this to understand.....A prisoner that has been there since 2014, after released he waited for the press to interview him + he was putting on a 2019 Nigerian jersey + a new traveling bag, don't u ever think Maybe it was part of the government's plan to let some protesters fall back after hearing what happened but people didn't see the full news about the prisoners escape,God forbid that for you,if u were in prison for only 1 month talkless of 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 years,and u see a chance to escape,will u ever let anyone interview u first or make haste to escape from the hell you've been to, Nigeria can still be great but we shouldn't be turning each other down
I sincerely don't understand the point you are trying to make here.
NGpatriot: When the protest started, this woman was not even in Nigeria, just like the other opportunists and anti government agitators with dubious and selfish agendas, she left her over pampered Ajebutter and luxurious children in Scotland and jumped on the plant to Nigeria to raise fist and take dramatic pictures and incite unsuspecting Nigerian youths to take bullets, to get arrested and jailed.
I remember when the protest started, the FG accepted the ENDSARS demands, many young leaders set forth to negotiate the demands and clear the path forward, this evil woman refused, she preferred the status quo because yielding meas the end of her 15 minutes of fame and grandstanding.
She openly swore than she'll never agree to anything the government put forward or be in the same room with the president?
So, why are you part of the protest and why are you even in Nigerian in the first place if you are not part of the solution or not ready for any positive path forward?
Obviously, selfish people with their own agenda don't care and nevered cared about any ENDSARS, it's all about their own political and personal agenda.
The thoughtless activists should have removed the protesters from the streets right after the government met their demands, but they kept them in the street, posing for social media pictures, staging carnival festivities, feasting on protest food, eating pizza as if the streets is now their bedroom and living room.
Unfortunately for the endsars protesters, evil actors were planning their own devilish moves to create chaos and to burn the country down.
Lesson number one, if you can not lead or control the people you incite to go out there to protest, don't send innocent youths out there to confront violence and hostilities especially when your own children are far far removed from the same hash realities.
edochie12: This is the raw truth,my mum that was living around d.m.g.s called me around 8pm and informed me that they are killing people around that area.
You guys are very sick in the head planting fake news.
I have 3 buildings there and called back tenants over there in Nigeria and nothing like such.
micflo28: 80,000 students Nationwide can get a share of 200,000 naira each from that money. Jail the moraf*cker. This will spoil his portfolio for future leadership position.
Which School you attended? Go and demand for refund from whomever that taught you Math.
thecommunist: I hope you know that you are not the only aviation person in and around here, so don't expect us to take your analysis in just like that. We have functioning brains and Google as well.
He is very wrong and full of misinformation in his write-up, Bell of that model never comes or equipped with Black Box and the capability to dump feul.
The black box was removed from the crash site by the operators.
This is not the first time that has happened.
The pilot I suspect must have dumped his fuel in anticipation of a crash in an urban area. No pilot will fly with inadequate fuel and if it so happens to be so, would have made an emergency landing in an open area.
Thirdly, the AIB coming out with this statement of the pilot not having a valid liscence is following the earlier NCAA's very unprofessional utterance long before AIB came out with their prelimunary report, that the helicopter in question was not approved for flight operations by them.
Then how come an aircraft that was not approved for operations was being operated within Nigerian airspace by an unqualified Pilot?
These NCAA idiots don't know they are even indicting themselves for failing to do their job.
This is not the first time the useless NCAA has been in the eye of the storm. This same NCAA came out to tell us that the black box for Bellview Airliner that mysteriously crashed somewhere around Ibadan airspace in 2005 was stolen from their office in Lagos.
I have met and interacted with several of these NCAA badged agents and I can tell you 90% of them have no businesss working in aviation talk more of being regulators.
As for AIB, does ones do not have a single clue.
My opinion of the timeline of events is as follows:.
Please that particular helicopter is not equipped with blackbox, and don't dump feul too, please say what you know and keep silence on what you don't know.
Adebami895: Okay bro please how do I contact you ?

It's private stuff bro, the thing is over the internet, I have come to released that you dot have to merciful for scammers, although it too me some weeks after spamming him with that virus and chat up with the bait direct from block chain records to get him by the balls, what I thought to do at first was just send him virus to destroy his gadgets, but when I spoof the gadgets it was not expensive gadgets like Apple, I decided to get back the money. And spoof him with access denial virus, if you want, we could work together and do this, but next time you want to change B itcoins for naira, simply register with luno.com and get yourself verified, that is how I send cash over to Nigerian bank from here.

Bait him, that was how I baited one, who took my cousin £450 without releasing bitcoin, I baited him with little coin and sent him virus, ending up locking his wallet, he was pleading, he paid double before I let him get wallet access back.
