I’m pretty sceptical about ground effect planes, there’s a very good reason why they’ve never really taken off, despite so many countries and organisations giving them a try over the years, but I’d love to know what everyone else thinks.

    I honestly don’t know who is dumb enough to believe they are going to be moving crowds over the water at 250km/h. That’s just bonkers. We can’t move cars and trains that fast FFS.

    A typical turbo prop will cruise at around 400 km/h

    Well maybe the investors are dumb enough.
