II. Final Responses Team 2 May 4, 2005
Half-Full Planes
- One solution is that you can fill up
the planes so the need for airplanes will be limited. If it is tested
and isn’t safe get smaller planes
for the over a certain pound person. There is no need for so much
weight on airplanes.
Communication
- You could build bigger towers. The bigger
the towers, maybe about a limited number of planes can talk to a
certain controller.
- We need just about as many satellites as air planes
to make communication easier. The more air traffic controllers the
safer communication and travel is.
Landings
- You can have strong lasers so see everything
in the whole runway. You can have something that breaks the molecules
of the clouds so you can have 3D dimensional of the air plane in
seconds. The planes have to have rapid reflexes so when they see in
3D they can tell them real fast to go in a direction to avoid crashing.
They should have an alternate route to go if someone needs to
take off when you need to land. You can use something like a sonar
signal. Something like night vision to see in bad weather and harsh
conditions.
Energy
If you put sugar in extremely hot temperatures it will produce
hydrogen power. You can try to develop a new motor for a new kind
of airplane. One day a airplane can run on hydrogen power instead
of expensive fuel. It will take less work and it can be produced
so you will save money.
Traffic Jams
You can reroute some of the areas. You could ask passenger to come
in earlier to avoid traffic jams. You can also make the runway
bigger so that a lot of planes could fit on but not take off at
the same time. You can change schedule to make travel more faster
and safer.
More Safely and Quickly
- On my list is fuel. You can
develop a new kind of fuel that can be produced instead of mines
off fossil fuels and such. The fuel could have fast reflexes to avoid
damage or any collision of any type. It could also move a little bit
faster just to make travel quicklier so there is more time for other
flight schedules.
Our Thoughts
- You can make engines smaller and efficient
for less accidents. You can fit more people on the plane cause of smaller
weight of the engine. You can also make planes more aerodynamic to get
to places quicker. We think getting a real big plane so there is little
need for smaller airplanes. You can fit a lot of people on it so
less planes are needed and you can probably save some money. They
will cost a lot of money to build but there is no need for a lot
of them because they are bigger and efficient.
