That's what I noticed the most. The two main forces you need to overcome to travel in the air: gravity and drag. Those wing shapes won't work, that's not how the Bernoulli effect works.

They lost me with swimming pools.. still trying to imagine the pools on those rare take off and landings... and loved the anti turbulance... animation and the "say goodbye to fear of flying" yet to get there... YOU FREAKING FLY
Ok. Pools. Did you notice how they progressively limit the baggage weight? In practically empty aluminuim tubes with wings? And now we have several tonns of water :) (Small 10 meter pool 5 m wide and 2 m depth weights 100 t) Somehow you should clean this water. I hope not with nuclear fission :) Another matter: trash. One thing when you sit in one place and fed with two dishes. Other thing - when you live. Look outside and check how many garbage produce... say... big household with 300-400 occupants. Multiply 10-15 times. And before that garbage become garbage you have to deliver it. So aerodynamics... Maintenance... Energy... Logistics... Psychology...
That thing is massive, it's at least 20 times larger than any commercial airplane. I can't even imagine the amount of maintenence something this massive would need. And how many pilots would you need to fly that thing??
@@MrCCollins1993 It's not. It's an abomination. The ghosts of the Wright brothers would be strangling these guys in their sleep if they'd stop suing Mr. Curtiss for violating their patent on undeath. Although Tony Holmsten is great, and you should absolutely check out his work.
Easily more. That first clip had it sat on the ramp around a load of Boeing 747s... If you've ever seen one up close or been on one - Those are some massive freakin' planes!! For pilots required, if you do your avionics properly, you could still get away with two pilots and a flight engineer tops. the only reaon for the flight engineer would be to monitor all twenty EDFs. They'd probably also have to be nuclear trained for the reactor but that's a minor technicality :) lmao
Forget the maintenance, can you imagine what would happen if that thing hit a turbulence? (And no, "anti vibration technology" is bullshit) With all those open spaces, malls, restaurants and pools? It would turn people into needle cushions and completely wreck all of those posh vanity temples. Even if the concept art was designed by an actual engineer and not some random 3D artist, It is an absurd idea that will never work. At this size, this thing would never lift from the ground, not with the current technology anyways. And the fusion reactor that they are showing as the power source? Yeah, it's obvious that whoever thought of that had absolutely no idea what they are talking about.
They did somewhat test a nuclear powered version of the B-36 Peacemaker, envisioned with the idea of allowing the military to always have an A-bomb carrying airplane in the sky. It all got scrapped cause it didn't work and because ICBMS were starting to appear. This however is immensely harder to accomplish and more dangerous so we will never see it in real life. By the time we will have technology to do something like this we will be looking at traveling to other planets.
And I bring to you, the one-billion-dollar tire. Imagine the factory needed just to make one tire. One tire would need a series of massive compressors running for 36 hours pumping an unheard of amount of nitrogen just to pressurize one tire.
Apart from some fancy imaginations, looking at this video with just the bare minimum of knowledge in engineering gives you a lot of "wow this is not even remotely feasible
The 16 year old boy who designed this is as talented as the person who thought up Solar Roadways. Neither thought about engineering much. But they made a fun animation. Problems: * The giant skydome would take so much weight in plexiglass to make something thick enough to withstand both the pressure differential and the outside force on the bubble in flight, that you would need wings bigger than the plane to lift it. There is a reason why the windows on plane are so small. * As others have noted, those elevators would both destroy the aerodynamics of the plane and take ridiculous amounts of engineering to keep them on the mother ship while in flight. * The sheer weight of such a vehicle would be so much that *even if* you were able to engineer runways that would survive the impact of landing, there are no wheels known to mankind that would survive that kind of weight above it, without adding to the weight, which would then increase the amount of weight that the wheels would weigh.... etc. Not to mention getting something that big to spin on landing??? That first touch would most likely rip off all of the gear. * What is that air conditioning duct cover on the top of the plane, forward? Is that to vent all of the cooking fumes from the food that you'll run out of on the second day? * Every amenity they add has weight. There's a reason why planes keep amenities low. A pool? The very reason why ships can have so many amenities is because they float in the water, and as long as there is more "air" inside the boat than outside of the boat's edges, there's a lot to keep it above the water. In a plane, carrying water is akin to carrying gas; its dead weight.
Solar panel roadways, while not designed by a 16 year old are a viable idea, though it ran in to problems such as keeping the road clean, and folks stealing the solar panels for there own personal use. Ther are companies world wide, most notably in the US looking for ways to make the idea more viable.
@@typhonplume9374 "Solar panel roadways, while not designed by a 16 year old are a viable idea..." Its not only one of the worst ideas out there, but entire videos have been made to explain why its such a bad idea. Short version: Why use roads, the #1 place in our world where heavy vehicles constantly travel over (literally leaving their treads behind), for solar panels, which are notoriously fragile and need to be kept clean? Why not put the panels literally anywhere else? Don't believe me. Believe the EE guy. ua-cam.com/video/obS6TUVSZds/v-deo.html
Ok so hear me out, what if we did something like the Hindenburg and Titanic, but then also put Chernobyl on it? And make it look like Passengers and 2001: A Space Odyssey so we really freak them out when we tell them the ship is run by a nameless HAL. Great.
The disproportion is ridiculous. Compare the size of windows in the 747s and the Flying Hotel, the scale is clearly wrong to make the FH look bigger than it is
Love how it takes off from an airport that couldn't even handle anything larger than a 747. And what kind of pilot flies with the landing gear down? That's not a Cessna 172 you know.
First off, those exposed elevators are a big nope for me. Uneven drag would also like a word on those. The engines look suspiciously like jet engines, fusion reaction is used as a magic future energy source, and your animation never bothered to raise the landing gear. Edit: Also, huge wheel chocks that lift the rear end off the ground? Come on, man. End edit It's a neat idea that could be done with nuclear fusion, but it needs more experts in several fields and multiple iterations to become something workable
The maintenance alone on this would make it impractical. Any flight longer than a week could possibly put it into a maintenance cycle of Weeks to MONTHS.
Kind of sad to see everyone hate on this concept. This particular design might be unrealistic but luxury air travel is absolutely possible and is worth exploring.
If Incorporated Quantum material using frictionless aerodynamics; it's somewhat possible with fusion. Helion fusion has a fusion engine in stage ~7, let alone possible anti-gravity tech being researched at universities. Considering gravity is just energy to energy attraction. Everything is made of Energy and has a gravitational field.
Interesting concept and looks pretty, but this video suggests that the designer knows very very very little about aircraft design, product engineering, systems engineering, weather patterns, airport design, and numerous other areas. The aerodynamic concept is horrible. The double wing with the engines sandwiched like this would result in enormous drag. The same for the external elevators and the tail configuration. Other aircraft might have a tough time approaching for delivery or pickup as shown, due to flow patterns around this aircraft. The elevator for docking would suffer extreme vibration. There are many areas that will not be able to receive maintenance in flight because they require work external to the aircraft. There are no airports that can support such a large aircraft, both in terms of runway width and runway load capacity. The huge glass surfaces and the overall shape of the fuselage and tail panoramic platform will have severe structural stresses due to pressurization and aeroelastic and other loads. Other than providing redundancy for safety purposes plus thrust for takeoff,, the 20 engines might not add much. Artificial intelligence might be able to rely on weather radar for the prediction of turbulence, but may not always be able to predict accurately and could have erroneous predictions (machine learning is only as good as its training and is non-deterministic). Perhaps not all turbulence could be avoided in time. Also, producing an interference vibration might not logged the structural loads even if it improves passenger comfort - just flying through it may not be a great idea for something that has such terrible structural considerations. Overall, this concept -might- be okay for a ***spaceship***, as long as it is built in space and never needs to re-enter any planet's atmosphere.
@@s2garage Nah. It's just one point of view. Just two more, for example: 5000 people is quite enough to escape from the problem of "5 men in one compartment" but still - small space, same people - it's a hotel. You have to deliver and get people back. So simple transit problem. They eat, they (pardon me french) shit. So you have to deliver quite wide range of food to the taste. Ok, trash you can just drop. You know the name people will choose for the plane, right? :) Personnel. Ok, it will be like english service - family under the stairs. Once and forever :)
I must say, one of my recurrent dreams features this plane. More precisely, it has the glass dome in the middle, white rooms with beds and a smaller version of the mall.
Bro my dreams are always so boring and anxiety filled. Like a normal day where I've forgotten to do something that I needed to. I wanna visit the sky hotel in my dreams
Well, fusion reactor. The image they show is clearly a Tokamak, which is reasonably safe. Worst case scenario is that the reactor loses containment, and throws rapidly cooling hydrogen plasma all over the interior. It'd absolutely thrash the plane, and due to the aircraft's mass alone, it'd be like dropping a Tall Boy on whatever it crashes into, but the fusion reactor would be the least problematic part of that scenario.
This is something I've dreamt of as a child. This is genuinely striking my soul. It is actually a life mission of mine to have one one day. I cant begin to put into words how thankful I am that you are making that concept of mine a reality. This is making me so happy, I wish you guys the bestest of luck. This HAS to come intro fruition. I pray for you and your success, even if i dont obtain one, knowing it has come into existence in and of itself is enough for me. Please please please make this a reality. This is true class and elegance.
2:06 “A small controlled nuclear reactor uses a highly controlled fusion reaction.” Wow! A Tokamak FUSION REACTOR will be installed on an airplane. This is most ambitious point which moved me! I love it.
It's interesting as a concept, although unfeasible. Still, a good exercise in creativity. Perhaps a mega airship, powered by a small atomic reactor, is more viable. It would be a kind of floating citadel.
Except it is not creative. It is just a mashup of old stuff including the shape; stolen from a small sport airplane. The glass "atrium" is just the clear plastic canopy of a small 2 seat plane.
Lisa, in this house we respect the laws of thermodynamics! To comfortably accommodate 5000 passengers you also need thousands of crew. However big that thing is it will never be big enough to be a living space for so many people AND also take off. Then, you have to land for some kind of emergency, and you will, and then there’s no airport that can accommodate this behemoth. If it could be built, and it can’t, I would want no part of it.

That's how inventions are made. Everything starts as an idea and evolves. Guess a degree can't teach you common sense.
@@reese3881 no it isn't. Inventions are born from new ideas based on theories using information we know to be true. Not some half baked concept that fails to answer even the simplest questions such as how do you get this thing off the ground given it would have to be the size of a small town, how do you service essential/hard to reach systems during flight, how do you land during an emergency.
@@cheesybean158 so what did the Wright Brothers know to be true about flying? Cause that was a completely new concept. Exactly
Attention passengers! This is your AI Pilot speaking. We are currently at an altitude of 30,000 feet travelling at approximately 800 knots. Today has blessed us with beautiful clear skies and next to no turbulence so please feel free to enjoy all of our on-board facilities. We will soon be transitioning from VR-mode to R-mode which will cause a slight course-correction, please brace for impact.
This thing is going to be the Titanic, the Hindenburg, and 9-11 all rolled into one
The designers forgot this thing is supposed to fly… Ergo, they need to adhere to the principles of aerodynamics 😂
What is aerodynamic?
It's not about the principles of aerodynamics. We simply don't have the technology yet... for a thing like this.
Aerodynamics? You mean Plane-Magic?
That's what I noticed the most. The two main forces you need to overcome to travel in the air: gravity and drag. Those wing shapes won't work, that's not how the Bernoulli effect works. And as for drag, well those struts holding up the observation deck are terrible, and the external lifts are ridiculous. It looks like they've been designed by the people who created the Yorkshire Airlines sketch for the Hale and Pace comedy show.
Fuck aerodynamics. They damn thing would never fly due to its sheer weight.
The Technology and Aerodynamics aside this thing is gonna cost billions of dollar to make just to begin with, and I very much doubt whether it will even be a profitable enterprise. But the design and animation in this video is damn good. The guy's clearly put effort

Surely it can given savings on fuel and 5000 passenger per flight. However the idea is quite flawed atm.
The landing gear being permanently down was a disappointing oversight

I'll take: "What if we combine the Titanic and the Hindenburg and Chernobyl ? " for a thousand Alex.
Imagine going down the external elevators and hearing the metal buckle and screech as air friction is trying to tear it off with you inside.
Not only that, they're talking about resupplying MID FLIGHT, using hook up elevators to regular sized planes which will have to be custom fit to use these elevators..... It's like these people aren't even thinking at all, not that I'm certain they even have a brain.. I'm 1000% certain this is some type of crypto scam.
Or the crushing pressure of being 100km in the air just suffocates you as you move between the pressurized cabin into the no way it can be pressurized enough elevator.

This guy is just passionate about sci-fi airships and these news articles stole his stuff straight from Reddit, without fact checking it, and claimed it to be a real project in the works. To give this guy credit he never claimed it was real, posted it on a fiction Reddit page, and actually made it really cool. More effort went into this that the majority of real “futuristic” project scams.

Maybe they drain the pool everytime they take off of land...
@@shart7660 it will NEVER happen. Not the pools nor the flying nuclear hotel
Ok. Pools. Did you notice how they progressively limit the baggage weight? In practically empty aluminuim tubes with wings? And now we have several tonns of water :) (Small 10 meter pool 5 m wide and 2 m depth weights 100 t) Somehow you should clean this water. I hope not with nuclear fission :) Another matter: trash. One thing when you sit in one place and fed with two dishes. Other thing - when you live. Look outside and check how many garbage produce... say... big household with 300-400 occupants. Multiply 10-15 times. And before that garbage become garbage you have to deliver it. So aerodynamics... Maintenance... Energy... Logistics... Psychology...
The pools are still the most plausible Thing on this plane
Think of the waste water tanks.
That thing is massive, it's at least 20 times larger than any commercial airplane. I can't even imagine the amount of maintenence something this massive would need. And how many pilots would you need to fly that thing??
Probably all AI controlled. It's like something out of Thunderbirds 😅 Still, an... interesting concept
If you look closely, each wheel is about the size of 747s.
@@MrCCollins1993 It's not. It's an abomination. The ghosts of the Wright brothers would be strangling these guys in their sleep if they'd stop suing Mr. Curtiss for violating their patent on undeath. Although Tony Holmsten is great, and you should absolutely check out his work.
Easily more. That first clip had it sat on the ramp around a load of Boeing 747s... If you've ever seen one up close or been on one - Those are some massive freakin' planes!!
For pilots required, if you do your avionics properly, you could still get away with two pilots and a flight engineer tops. the only reaon for the flight engineer would be to monitor all twenty EDFs. They'd probably also have to be nuclear trained for the reactor but that's a minor technicality :) lmao
Forget the maintenance, can you imagine what would happen if that thing hit a turbulence? (And no, "anti vibration technology" is bullshit) With all those open spaces, malls, restaurants and pools? It would turn people into needle cushions and completely wreck all of those posh vanity temples. Even if the concept art was designed by an actual engineer and not some random 3D artist, It is an absurd idea that will never work. At this size, this thing would never lift from the ground, not with the current technology anyways. And the fusion reactor that they are showing as the power source? Yeah, it's obvious that whoever thought of that had absolutely no idea what they are talking about.
4:02 I love how that B747 looks so small
They did somewhat test a nuclear powered version of the B-36 Peacemaker, envisioned with the idea of allowing the military to always have an A-bomb carrying airplane in the sky. It all got scrapped cause it didn't work and because ICBMS were starting to appear. This however is immensely harder to accomplish and more dangerous so we will never see it in real life. By the time we will have technology to do something like this we will be looking at traveling to other planets.
And I bring to you, the one-billion-dollar tire. Imagine the factory needed just to make one tire.
One tire would need a series of massive compressors running for 36 hours pumping an unheard of amount of nitrogen just to pressurize one tire.
At this point I think it'd be better off as a sea plane.

Not sure that being nuclear powered would be enough to allow you to ignore aerodynamics.
True, but with enough thrust anything can become airborne; keeping it from falling apart is a different story...🤔🤪
Come on. Gotta grift investors somehow.
Or... How is it nuclear powered anyway?
Nuclear power is not power directly derived from fission/fusion, it just boils water that runs turbines to generate electricity. Yeah, this is stupid
@@footose Fusion reactor drives the engines in the wings, he even says so in the video
The 16 year old boy who designed this is as talented as the person who thought up Solar Roadways.
Neither thought about engineering much.
But they made a fun animation.
Problems:
* The giant skydome would take so much weight in plexiglass to make something thick enough to withstand both the pressure differential and the outside force on the bubble in flight, that you would need wings bigger than the plane to lift it. There is a reason why the windows on plane are so small.
* As others have noted, those elevators would both destroy the aerodynamics of the plane and take ridiculous amounts of engineering to keep them on the mother ship while in flight.
* The sheer weight of such a vehicle would be so much that *even if* you were able to engineer runways that would survive the impact of landing, there are no wheels known to mankind that would survive that kind of weight above it, without adding to the weight, which would then increase the amount of weight that the wheels would weigh.... etc. Not to mention getting something that big to spin on landing??? That first touch would most likely rip off all of the gear.
* What is that air conditioning duct cover on the top of the plane, forward? Is that to vent all of the cooking fumes from the food that you'll run out of on the second day?
* Every amenity they add has weight. There's a reason why planes keep amenities low. A pool? The very reason why ships can have so many amenities is because they float in the water, and as long as there is more "air" inside the boat than outside of the boat's edges, there's a lot to keep it above the water. In a plane, carrying water is akin to carrying gas; its dead weight.
Solar panel roadways, while not designed by a 16 year old are a viable idea, though it ran in to problems such as keeping the road clean, and folks stealing the solar panels for there own personal use. Ther are companies world wide, most notably in the US looking for ways to make the idea more viable.
@Mysticꀭ

@@typhonplume9374
"Solar panel roadways, while not designed by a 16 year old are a viable idea..."
Its not only one of the worst ideas out there, but entire videos have been made to explain why its such a bad idea.
Short version:
Why use roads, the #1 place in our world where heavy vehicles constantly travel over (literally leaving their treads behind), for solar panels, which are notoriously fragile and need to be kept clean?
Why not put the panels literally anywhere else?
Don't believe me. Believe the EE guy.

And the landing gear just hangs out the whole time on the bottom...? 🤦🏻♂️
You used more time writing this than the designers with the plane
Ok so hear me out, what if we did something like the Hindenburg and Titanic, but then also put Chernobyl on it? And make it look like Passengers and 2001: A Space Odyssey so we really freak them out when we tell them the ship is run by a nameless HAL. Great.
Love it. The video creator was like "lets make all the 747s look small and make this thing look gigantic while still fitting on a taxiway"
The disproportion is ridiculous. Compare the size of windows in the 747s and the Flying Hotel, the scale is clearly wrong to make the FH look bigger than it is
I'm honestly more worried about the apparent CO² levels. Look at those trees!
Love how it takes off from an airport that couldn't even handle anything larger than a 747. And what kind of pilot flies with the landing gear down? That's not a Cessna 172 you know.
It said in the video that it would have NO PILOTS 😂😂😂
All that sophisticated technology and it can’t even pull up its landing gear lmao
This is about as realistic as that space hotel they say will be ready in 5 years
I like the part where they are flying in the middle of aurora borealis at 100km with the landing gear down.
Yea they probably have no idea that the landing gear increase drag ( they don’t know how planes work )
There wasn’t any energy left for that. All of it went to making of steamed hams!
We like every part of this video :)
@@miroslavbriza You call hamburgers "steamed hams?"
First off, those exposed elevators are a big nope for me. Uneven drag would also like a word on those. The engines look suspiciously like jet engines, fusion reaction is used as a magic future energy source, and your animation never bothered to raise the landing gear.
Edit:
Also, huge wheel chocks that lift the rear end off the ground? Come on, man. End edit
It's a neat idea that could be done with nuclear fusion, but it needs more experts in several fields and multiple iterations to become something workable
I thought the same thing about those elevators. They should be built inside the same structure it protrudes from
@@Hell-yeah420.69 Also the loading elevator for mid-flight passenger and cargo transfers makes me shudder.
@@tetsatou2815 i made a separate comment about that too 4:00 like how is that even possible!? You need an entire track to land a damn boeing
Not to mention everything is out of scale. Compared to the decks and the other planes on the ground the elevators are massive.
The maintenance alone on this would make it impractical. Any flight longer than a week could possibly put it into a maintenance cycle of Weeks to MONTHS.
Kind of sad to see everyone hate on this concept. This particular design might be unrealistic but luxury air travel is absolutely possible and is worth exploring.
If Incorporated Quantum material using frictionless aerodynamics; it's somewhat possible with fusion. Helion fusion has a fusion engine in stage ~7, let alone possible anti-gravity tech being researched at universities. Considering gravity is just energy to energy attraction. Everything is made of Energy and has a gravitational field.
Interesting concept and looks pretty, but this video suggests that the designer knows very very very little about aircraft design, product engineering, systems engineering, weather patterns, airport design, and numerous other areas. The aerodynamic concept is horrible. The double wing with the engines sandwiched like this would result in enormous drag. The same for the external elevators and the tail configuration. Other aircraft might have a tough time approaching for delivery or pickup as shown, due to flow patterns around this aircraft. The elevator for docking would suffer extreme vibration. There are many areas that will not be able to receive maintenance in flight because they require work external to the aircraft. There are no airports that can support such a large aircraft, both in terms of runway width and runway load capacity. The huge glass surfaces and the overall shape of the fuselage and tail panoramic platform will have severe structural stresses due to pressurization and aeroelastic and other loads. Other than providing redundancy for safety purposes plus thrust for takeoff,, the 20 engines might not add much. Artificial intelligence might be able to rely on weather radar for the prediction of turbulence, but may not always be able to predict accurately and could have erroneous predictions (machine learning is only as good as its training and is non-deterministic). Perhaps not all turbulence could be avoided in time. Also, producing an interference vibration might not logged the structural loads even if it improves passenger comfort - just flying through it may not be a great idea for something that has such terrible structural considerations.
Overall, this concept -might- be okay for a ***spaceship***, as long as it is built in space and never needs to re-enter any planet's atmosphere.
@@s2garage Nah. It's just one point of view. Just two more, for example: 5000 people is quite enough to escape from the problem of "5 men in one compartment" but still - small space, same people - it's a hotel. You have to deliver and get people back. So simple transit problem. They eat, they (pardon me french) shit. So you have to deliver quite wide range of food to the taste. Ok, trash you can just drop.

welcome to a non-aerodynamic, atrocious, ugly, fragile, badly made, psychics-bending, expensive absolute hellscape! :)
Great idea putting a nuclear reactor in something that could malfunction and fall out of the sky.
Well, fusion reactor. The image they show is clearly a Tokamak, which is reasonably safe. Worst case scenario is that the reactor loses containment, and throws rapidly cooling hydrogen plasma all over the interior. It'd absolutely thrash the plane, and due to the aircraft's mass alone, it'd be like dropping a Tall Boy on whatever it crashes into, but the fusion reactor would be the least problematic part of that scenario.
This is something I've dreamt of as a child. This is genuinely striking my soul. It is actually a life mission of mine to have one one day.

وبمثل هذا يفتخر المسلمون!
It's interesting as a concept, although unfeasible. Still, a good exercise in creativity. Perhaps a mega airship, powered by a small atomic reactor, is more viable. It would be a kind of floating citadel.
A citadel is probably most likely definitely gonna b how they start this space shit officially.
It's a concept from the 50s but it was much better worked out then by the British with a flying wing design.
Nah this is not even good imagination. It's just lazy
Except it is not creative. It is just a mashup of old stuff including the shape; stolen from a small sport airplane. The glass "atrium" is just the clear plastic canopy of a small 2 seat plane.
Lisa, in this house we respect the laws of thermodynamics! To comfortably accommodate 5000 passengers you also need thousands of crew. However big that thing is it will never be big enough to be a living space for so many people AND also take off. Then, you have to land for some kind of emergency, and you will, and then there’s no airport that can accommodate this behemoth.
If it could be built, and it can’t, I would want no part of it.
