While sitting on our sea wall in jaywick,
along with hundreds of others,
waiting for the next airshow exhibit to arrive,
i looked at "our" working wind turbines merrily going round and round in the wind.
It was then that i thought about low level aircraft.
Gunfleet Sands windfarm is roughly 6 miles out to sea, and although the tip hight at max rotation is imense, how do low level flight air craft deal with the turbines in poor visibility.
We know that the rotor tips at there lowest point are high enough for most smaller craft to pass through without fear of decapitation to either crew or craft, but its higher up that intrigues me.
We can see the turbines twirling from Harwich looking over the Naze peninsula.
I bet the folk using the Tag Mahal did not expect to see the mills so clearly?
ha..ha..ha..
sorry Amenity, i missed this post.
Of course your right, the big poobars never expected to be soiled that much, the actual sight of windfarms...lol
Well Nikadi, from where i look, even on calm days like yesterday, there was afew turbines still generating.
They of course are still fitting up the last new turbines by means of self lifting barges moored next to the yellow part submerged stubs, on top of these, the complex job of building the tall turbine suport leg on which sits the fully controllable turbine power producing heads.
Maybe i have more time to view all these operations Nikadi, but also have promo dvd`s from A`ON
I've done some research on the turbines but can't find anything about them not actually producing the juice they claim to be producing. According to my 'source' it was all over the national papers. though her source was her rich banker boyfriend who, tbh, I expect over exaggerates things which she happily laps up
Nikadi,
Your question of proposed power outputs is not the first time I have been asked today.
just supposing they were just for looking at.
If you took that view, then why only have just a dozen or so working like todays.
Why not face them all into the wind, just to make it look good?
As a power generating system, one that produces very high voltages at peak wind speed generation,
what would it achieve, as the power would need a target to outflow too, or would badly overheat the coil windings within the generation hub.
True, bankers, backers, local polititions and the like,
would know not if it was all just a scam,
but the local coastal residents distrupted by months of deep pile drivings going,
THUMP - THUMP - THUMP for 24 hours a day,
while its 1st stages of the windturbines bases were punched into sub sea bed chalk and strata, its those 1,000s all along our coasts that would be very annoyed it the whole thing was a sham.
Like Pandora`s box, once opened, things will change for ever.
fate, truth, and money..
