Obviously messages of reputable scientists are true, because sun is continuously rising its activity at present. We have to expect extreme sun- storm problems when the 11- years- cycle of the sun reaches its summit around 2011. This will possibly cause disastrous scenarios in the future -
- Severe trouble with all electronic systems on aircrafts and other vehicles,
- Crashes of aircrafts and all driven systems,
- Breakdown of power supply in almost all countries - etc.
How can we avoid severe aircraft accidents and breakdown of air traffic during that dangerous period? The answer is – having the alternative available in time!
THE ORIGINAL
AIRFOIL FLAIRLINER®- TECHNOLOGY
SAFE FAST AND POWERFUL
High-Speed-FLAIRLINER® riding at about 50 cm up to 200 cm above water- surface in the flair- mode at a speed of up to 300 km/h - depending on size and engine.
FIELDS OF USE:
- Island-Shuttle-Services,
- Coast Surveillance,
- High- Speed Passenger-Ferries,
- Defence- and Police-Services,
- Rescue-Services,
- Shuttle for Polar Regions,
- Express Medical Services,
- Sea- and River-Shuttle Services,
- Trans- Ocean Travels,
- Airfoil- Boats for Private Use,
- Fun-and Sports- boats, - etc.
Fairliner® cover great distances, economically, quickly and safely "flair" above shallow waters, drifting objects and shoals and moor in shallow waters as well as in deep waters. Able to launch from very shallow water or beaches.
ADVANTAGES FOR THE PASSENGER
Very comfortable, rapid and safe travelling.
Safe cruising at highest speed, independent on surface conditions.
There is no heavy sea swell, no high waves, and no vertical push in any way noticeable as on any other type of boat.
Even at cruising speed above rough water, due to the nature of flairing, there is a totally smooth ride.
Because of little draught, simple embarking and disembarking even at unprepared areas as harbours are mostly located in cities, passengers save time. The Flairliner® cannot fall or drop away like an aircraft.
SAFETY AND SEAWORTHINESS
Flairliner® are essentially faster than all known vessels.
Since a Flairliner® lies flat beyond the water surface, vertically rising waves flow underneath the boat and thus give it an additional lift while waves being smoothed down.
That means there is no danger, even at stormy weather conditions because even without power, the craft adjusts favourably to wind and waves.
The large tail unit is a self stabilising factor in the wind.
Due to the width, there is hardly any tendency to roll like a monohull does.
All Flairliner have several watertight divided bulkheads. In a storm it swims on the water surface similar to a raft and smoother than comparable ships.
Easy fastening of ropes and towing of other crafts as well as better rescue conditions.
In the floating mode before leaving water, it is twice as fast as conventional ships.
In comparison to seaplanes, the safety is essentially greater due to better manoeuverability during storms at sea while floating during storms.
Greater stability as a result of solid and more appropriate construction gives security in floating as well as flairing mode.
Flairliner®- shape and construction protects from severe damages of the wings or even total loss by avoiding the "rolling case" as in seaplanes.
Flairing means a real flight near the water surface, therefore a Flairboat will never drop as in air pockets or complete loss of airworthiness.
- The Flairliner® is possible to be manufactured in sizes of
- up to 15, 25, 60, 85, 100, 200 and 500 passengers
- and versions for cargo services.
ATTRACTIVITY TO THE SHIPPING TRADE
75 % fuel in starting mode and dropping down to 33 % fuel consumption in flairing mode. Therefore massively lower investment and maintenance costs.
Less capital expenditure, interest etc.
On an 8 hour day, it travels a distance of 1000-1500 km.
Faster turnarround and turnover, higher profits.
Engines are throttled, therefore minor fuel consumption.
80 % efficiency of propeller compared to 20% of screws.
Airfoil- crafts are roomy, accessible from all sides and easy to load.
When flairing there is no water contact, - therefore little wear and tear.
COMPARISON TO TRADITIONAL CRAFTS
4 to 10 times faster than other vessels.
2-3 times faster than Hovercrafts or Hydrofoils.
Even at high speed, very good manoeuverability.
Quick breaking possible!
Unrestricted operation possibilities on waterways and shallow waters at high speed.
Sand and gravel banks are no obstacles at all.
Less wear and tear on hull, as there is no water contact at high speed. Less expensive and less complicated in operation than aircraft hovercraft and hdydrofoil, catamaran, mono-hull etc., due to lower cost of operating personal and maintenance.
Documented and approved as a boat, smaller Airfoil- boats can be operated by a normal boat license and passenger- boats by a captains patent. Therefore no expensive regulations.
ENVIRONMENT
Flairliners do not disturb fish-breeding etc.
Flairliners shape and construction have an extremely good efficiency and reduces exhaust emissions.
Antifouling and other environmentally dangerous products can be eliminated because there is a high self-cleaning effect in use.
