Now that I have Created the Gradual TimeChart for USA-NATO expansion below, I conclude there has been a 32 year plan (hidden from us Public until now) enacted here - was Mr Putin "Used" by the USA Brain-RFI to invade Ukraine in 2014 and 2022 ? - just to Really get the Europeans On Board that Plan..... with more money for the military too? I observe the easy way Ms Kallas EU Foreign Minister has been Placing Sanctions.....
I Obviously Noticed I was HIT by the Brain-RFI on 25may1992 (big car crash off M4, Curved off the port side)..... and as a result years later, realised a couple of earlier occasions I had been so "manipulated" but with such un-noticed effect at the time -
December1970 I think it was, after my RB199 four-second decel to idle calculations surge discovery in Bristol, when I was Brain-RFI stopped from further investigation to Not even Try to find a Cure, and
30oct1994 afternoon on trying to talk to Roly Beamont, but Brain-RFI stopped with.... a one word description, instead of the explanation I should have discussed with him!
Both of these committed while I was Inside "NATO Secret" Boundaries..... no Faraday Cage, and not inside a Submarine at depth. And stopping me from doing something, as in a blank mind not triggering...... anything.
I cannot escape this thing. The French Resistance were able to smile and talk quietly to the Deutsch Ocupiers in WW2, and
then explode bombs in the evening - they were Free to think whatever they liked and not be heard..... so not captured beforehand, as is so psychological easy for the Brain-RFI with me!
You must have noticed how Targets are Known by Name and Precisely Attacked by Israel over the years....
JimQ knew Nothing About It until 25may1992.
Engine men were always kicked out of MoD meetings early (only 20 or 30 minutes often) and always 1st on the agenda. And Nato Secret means "tell nobody what you do" unless necessary for the job to proceed. We were even excluded from the RAF's Aircraft Range Requirements except for the time spent at max rpm at sea level, so we did what we were told on the engine fan airflow..... and not involved in their aircraft-size design decision, albeit based upon our four design proposals. And which I have been able to infer by my own calculations, but Not Absolutely - only by logical comparison since summer 2023! Fan Airflow.... there is no logic available to me - Panavia design knowhow only.

Just seen on Ch4: Al Carns, UK Armed Forces Minister, ex military, says we will react to any attack by Iran - NOT ONCE did he say that the USA should NOT have attacked Iran.....
Also Keir Starmer said Mr Trump could use RAF Fairford and RAF Diego Garcia to stop Iran launching missiles - he expects Iran to sit quiet, and take it? Really? Nothing said by him about Stopping Mr Trump! Just a Bleat today about not wanting regime change - the Ayatollah Khamenei died on 28feb2026, 2 days ago.
Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe in UK and on ITV 6.30pm news tonight, recalling her 5 years in Iran prison, and today in difficulty trying to talk to others in Iran..... not unusual in a time of war. Nothing said about the UK delaying its £400million Debt Repayment to Iran by those same 5 years.... Her imprisonment Not really Iran's fault, but Britain's rich-fat-cat money men.... who don't care much about women anyway.

Democracy is SICK!!
Does anybody else see an Anti-Russia TREND here.......
particularly following the Clinton-Cheney 1994 push NATO Eastwards.....
Britain provided a foot-hold for USA during WW2
Israel similar for the Middle East, also since WW2.
USA Policy:
JimQ Reflections, date-wise.....
USA Drives Sycophant NATO:
Arctic Area:
Norway 1949, Canada 1949, Alaska 1959, suddenly
Finland 2023, Sweden 2024.
Greenland, 2027, lovely view opposite very wide Russia......
Now Only Russia's beaches to Own!! To Prevent Them sea-mining for Riches! China...?
And Venezuala Oil could be used by USA to hit Russian economy.
Iran 2026 for a Caspian Sea attack - and an oil-wash too.....
If you Examine the UK-European style of Democracy you will find it VERY AUTOCRATIC, run by Thickies, who do NOT consult their own ABLE THINKERS.....
Trump has become Hitler - where HIS RELIGION (an Aryan type!!) must exterminate ALL Others......
Western Colonialism lives - to Rape The World's Resoures, no matter the Lives Damaged both Physically and Financially.....
Such USA-UK-NATO NON Support for Gaza too:
STROUD ALIVE
In 1955, Israel killed 35 Egyptians, retaliating for one Israeli death. USA continued its big support of Israel.... My Danny Danon letter concluding in their Mental Illness, was a Modern Note of such exaggerated retaliation!
President Harry S.Truman, who had No Arabs in his constituency, PLACED them on Palestinian Land from 1944, not caring at all that Arabs Owned it, nor that British and Soviet People Suffered greatly in WW2 to eliminate Fascism, and so save many more Jews from death - so why support the Jews so much more than OUR Working People?
Giving Israel (without Land) UN Membership in 1949, but not Palestine.....!? The Jews had not lived on Palestinian Land for over 1,000 years!! What Right did/do They have to so Eject the Indigenous Arab Community?
I PREFER Mr Putin's Thoughtfulness...... even if we have some personal discussions yet to come.
"Aryan" (derived from Sanskrit ārya or Old Persian arya) originally refers to an ancient Indo-Iranian self-designation meaning "noble" or "honorable" representing a group of pastoralists who migrated to South Asia. Historically, it denoted linguistic and cultural identity, not a biological race, though it was later misappropriated by 19th-century European ideology to define a fabricated, superior "Aryan race".
Hey Mr Vatican, how did your religion become so distorted??
Did Hitler take you on board similarly?

Why did Saudi Arabia Summon the Iranian Ambassador yesterday over the bombs on Riyadh - and NOT the Israeli and USA Ambassador's? They were treating the Symptom NOT the Cause!!
Similarly the other local Nations - before Thursday, asking Iran not to retaliate attack, when they should have been asking Israel and USA Not to attack Iran in the first place!
Danny Danone at the UNSC just now talks of 2,500 years ago..... as if They Stayed There for all of that time.
Nope, THEY DID NOT:
28feb2026 2220 GMT
If Ayatolla Khameini actually is Dead - how did they find him?
Yup, another Brain-RFI ability (remember there are several USA Boeing launched Satellites up there with 5,000 transceivers apiece) - these can track somebody autonomously from the moment they are 1st picked up months ago..... the satellite transceiver follows the signal RETURN from that person's brain.
Just like the Big Jodrell Bank radio telescope able to pick up the low power Voyager 1 and 2 signals from billions of miles outside Pluto's orbit and the Heliosphere.

ALL other Nations near Iran are suddenly ALL accusing IRAN....
YOU should ALL WAIT please. Do Not Retaliate, FOR
While Everybody nearby is blaming IRAN,
it seems that was for YOU to
READILY JOIN Mr Netanyahu and Mr Trump A?
Just what THEY Want......
to Obliterate IRAN, and so marvellous that YOU JOIN IN!! and
YOU SO AGREE, without Persuasion. REALLY?
Is that what I said - the Brain-RFI is at work here, for Iran to Attack YOU ALL..... so CONVINCINGLY!
So you must not retaliate, but Please WATCH....
JimQ Yes?

Today's attack on Iran is what I suggested USA's Mr Trump "was doing/would do" two months ago, Mr Guterres, UN Secretary General.
I really am Very Surprised that this Lack of UN Authority has continued for so many years....
We all need something MORE please, as I suggest here........ ?
Mr Trump has to be Contained too.
And his Crony Mr Netanyahu.

Did that missile hit on Riyadh today, come from an American Aircraft over Afganistan when launched?
1900 GMT: Saudi Arabia blamed Iran VERY quickly -unexpected of a Capable Military, that should have examined the Debris 1st..... and the missile Track.
I would have expected Iran to target the many USA military bases in the various local Countries - so why the Major Cities? I suspect Brain-RFI manipulated the "Targets" - WMD!
Remember the American hit on Iraq's WMD to ..... regime change - and the Many Internal conflicts that resulted. Why is it happening again only23 years later? Does nobody LEARN?.... for the Iranian People this time.
And I notice Starmer and Macron blame Iran -
NOT Israel-USA for such Predictive Aggression !!
NOT based upon Evidence.
Why does the IAEA talk the need to Inspect Iran's nuclear facilities, but NOT Israel's?
When are YOU going to stop believing Israeli-USA Hypochondria, Cyberchondria, and WMD's Brain-RFI? This attack on Iran today, is a Wyatt Earp "gunslinger" "shoot-first" attack to TRIGGER their own self-imposed hardline...... Suicide!! To Be Recognised world-wide.....

Holst did not wait for the Facts about Mars..... nor any Discussion about its individuality!
Such Prejudice:
Dr Masoud Pezeshkian has a "green" face, and comes from that strange earth-like vegetarian world called Mars - or is it far-out fishy Pluto?
Thus THE PLAN: JCPOA cancelled, May 2018......
STORIES: Israel says ..... a quick response, within minutes retaliation. Do Not Believe it..... Question more!
Banks used to have Inviolable High Integrity Accounts - nobody allowed to interfere with anybody's, except their own.
Now, it seems junior members of EU or UK Government can instruct any of them to BREAK THE BANKER'S CODE, which was not to PLAY or INTERFERE with anybody's account.
So, why is it SO EASY to place Sanctions ON Anybody thru' such high-integrity-banks - are ALL OUR ACCOUNTS Political Now???? Not Personal at all ?

Mr Zelensky does NOT want to save Human lives, for his little bit (20%) of Territory is SO important to him, occupied by Ethnic Russians who have long fought against Kyiv's dictatorship..... and I bet Ukraine families would not now agree to losing more close-ones.......
Patriotism is Croneyism is Autocracy by Govt! In Ukraine and UK.
is Concealment too...... All UK royals PR Mandelson.....
From https://jim-quinn8.blogspot.com/ Mr Putin's Military deliberately refrained from moving further north for nearly 2 years, waiting for YOU AGGRESSIVES to so OBSERVE....... and TALK. In a boxing ring, would You Expect Anybody to just Stand There and take YOUR ATTACKS, without Retaliation of any sort, stupid......? Thus the more recent increased Retaliation by The Russian Federation, because YOU ARE DEAF-BLIND STUPID
When is JimQ going to be PAID for exposing the royals, UK Govt Thickie Autocracy, and their Gestapo Fascist Brain-RFI?
A professional travel writer has said "My English" is Incorrect - my use of the word "but" is wrong.....
I reminded her my brain is Not much "wordy" - it is a Calculating Machine, Physical, Kinetic, and Diagrammatic, so English is actually a 2nd language to me!!
Hence, to try better.....
JimQ's Fundamental Humanitarian Beliefs:
I have to Define these at Top Level, for UK Law consists of about 100,000 pages, incomprehensible to most people. And my proposal for a 2,750 word and diagram (11 page) Constitution has been Ignored......
1) Do Not Lie, Do Not Steal, Do Not Murder.
All other Laws are Subject to These, and Are Declared by All Religions!
2) Those Who do Not Practice Them are Criminals..... The Accused should be Allowed a Defence and Judgement in Law, to Prove Either Their Innocence or Their Guilt, Depending upon Probability.
3) In the Natural World, Deep Thinking, Investigations, and Creativity are Evolutionary and Important. Very Few have those Combined Abilities.
4) https://www.stroudnewsandjournal.co.uk/news/25870870.rugby-legend-mike-tindall-join-45-mile-charity-ride-mnd/? is Typical of Charity, and is surely part of Humanitarian Law.
5) We ALL Have to Earn a Living and must Limit Spending accordingly! (Ensure Income is above Expenditure!).
JimQ
Yet More: Apartheid! Nobody, age 16 to 55, allowed in Al-Aqsa Mosque
It is a Rare Video, title: Nelson Mandela Speaking on Palestine
Israeli Colonialist Apartheid on the Palestinians is absolutely awful.
HAMAS asked for a Two-State "solution" in 2017 (in the media) - The West sneeeered......... who would NOT react to being so despised?
JimQ
Nelson had a whole unaffected-by-RFI brain throughout his imprisonment - JimQ did not!
One thought for you: The USA so loves the Israeli's they should take them ALL into the USA (only 2% extra in USA population) and STOP the war in the Middle East as a result, directly!!
Surely, NATO countries would support this, for it reduces their headache!!
This 1997 concert was THE BEST ever, thankyou Jean. Better than any Queen, Beatles, Dire Starits..... for its visual displays were so Good,
but Michael Jackson's dance and choreography was so very great too.
The VHS goes on to explain how HE and IT started - lovely CREATIVE job.
Creativity beats capitalism every time! But THEY take advantage of the Creative People, and accumulate WEALTH at OUR Expense! Like Royals did/do, which is why Revolutions Killed Them in so many Countries.
Selfish Musk/Trump's turn will come......
Communism was wrong for it restricted the Individual by Top Down (limited thought) Dictate, while UK Govt/Law is merely a different form of Top Down Dictatorship,
RUN BY IDIOTS,
whose Bill of Rights (1688) just below, Refuses to Listen/Consult with The Capable Intelligent Outside Parliament, and Still Rules.
Decision Makers who so Demonstrate INCOMPETENCE!!
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/aep/WillandMarSess2/1/2/introduction saysThat the Freedome of Speech and Debates or Proceedings in Parlyament ought not to be impeached or questioned in any Court or Place out of Parlyament.
THEIR form of democracy is to claim that the person who sweeps the road/gutter is as Capable as those who Top QUALIFY CEng - the creatives - so (no qualifications needed/road sweeper) gasgasgas, InCapable Designers, MP/lord have become Elected...... God's who NEVER ask, address Symptoms only, and do not understand the Strategic Answers as a result.
The ONLY sort of democracy I can accept is one where Engineering's Holistic ABILITY counts among the Officials, and where Everybody gets a crack at VOICING their Concerns, while NOT dictating. Thus the electoral system has to produce a Result proportional to the populations needs - and STV does that, as practiced in Scotland Wales and Ireland,
Some things I know and think about, better than 98% of the Population..... I started from a GOOD Education tho'..... seems not be available in UK today!
There are about 178,000 CEng in UK's 65,000,000 today - thus in UK Govt the majority murders the minority, but Business loves us for the Profit we help them make, BY OUR DESIGN AND MAKE ABILITY.
Digging tunnels is a big activity, but "why have the tunnels in the first place?", is a CEng DESIGN and IPR function, NOT a man with a digging machine job!
Free speech is claimed by Mr Starmer in UK, but ONLY if you are a CRONY will he/they listen!! Social-media is a gas gas gas persons need, and Certainly NOT a thinking persons diet, for THEY SEEK FACTS from many places, not "imposed" gossip nor sexual images that you cannot escape.
JimQ does NOT use Social-media, but emails and several/many newsletters.
In UK School under-18's Education, Quarks dominate for the 0.00000001% who need them, but where Heat, Light, Sound, Electricity and Magnetism needed by 99% of us, seem to lose out!
You HAVE to LEARN how to THINK, not just memorise to become a CEng. Who else does that in our numbers?
Piloting (kinetics) With Thinking, NOT "3mph" armchairs:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lK5cxl8hSQ You have to finish to Win!AND be allowed toooooo be yourself, NOT bullied, but encouraged.... Please.
We NEVER needed an F35B!
A 10% bigger Harrier "COPY" would be low cost, plus a little for fibre optics, and have MUCH longer range.... if that is all you bought the F35B for, because it is CRAP otherwise!!
Thus I ask: Where are the UK CEng jobs now?

Even the Govts word DIVERSE is only applicable to Race, Colour, LGBT etc people, when WE mean: Diverse is "so very many technical disciplines - for example aerodynamics specialists, structure specialists, electronics specialists, materials specialists, etc" - so very many ALL relating to the Natural World, and each of such DEPTH, that nobody can know or memorise everything.
The BEST proven Engineers will have MANY years of Thought behind them, and never be professional lawyers or accountants..... who mostly just rely on what they see or hear, and THEY could NEVER act as Professional Engineers either.
Lawyers, and their associated Judges in Court SHOULD rely on the Judgement of Professional Engineers, for they can never evaluate or infer the background to such of a complex situation as WE (many, but not all) can.
As with EVERY human, some are good and some not so good..... WITHIN the CEng Fellow band, but the minimum ain't bad.... https://jim-quinn0.blogspot.com/ UK Mental Capacity Act 2005

Try this, for understanding of viscous fluid behaviour (yup,
RED text to ....... HELP!): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navier%E2%80%93Stokes_equations but these NASA ones Engineering and better understood, for a man of 4D and Rallying, and I bet the software engineering programmers use them too:
still complex, but (Human Software Calculations in Supercomputers help the Latest Aerodynamicists, whether Formula 1 cars or RAF Typhoons....), those equations evolved thru' 200 HUMAN years say, from good old Bernouilli's simpler stuff centuries ago, in 1738...... which is where we all start during Our (Basic) BSc Education, whether Uni or Apprenticed, and In Industry, work our way up, to IPR developers see.
I am a visualiser in these sorts of Equations that I have some ability to describe, never actually calculating with these complex ones myself, but to Think AND to understand The Results of Testing, whether thus Precisely Calculated or Observed - with the aid of Professional Aerodynamicists who will DO BETTER THAN ME at Design thru' Practice, but I should be able to fairly-closely understand them, thru' ASKING, variously and severally!
Design comes about thru' visualisation, calculation and compromise of appropriate shapes, using the Equations to minimise the need for many shape Physical Testing. The computer is thus a TOOL to help people Design, not to replace them.
Govt's Artificial Intelligence, AI, is Nothing New here.... merely
Their name for Software we ALREADY use.
BUT, there IS a Mental Capacity Problem in UK: so very many people WRONGLY say that "anti-semitism is to be against the Israeli Govt" - Wrong because they NEVER check the English Dictionary, AND the Israeli Govt are NO LONGER genuine Jews, but KILLERS, THIEVES and LIARS, so despised by their Moses! Check that out too!
Hence gasgasgas is NOT enough LAWYER Mr Keir Starmer and business ADMIN Ms Sanae Takaichi,ONLY in your 60's- you MUST Ask.
REMEMBER too, MANY people KNOW more and THINK better than YOU political ones Ever Will, and YOU are NOT able to make decisions on their behalf, EVER.
You are elected for your ability to gasgasgas, not much more, nothing technical, nothing STEM. As a Consequence of TRADITION, The Elected have Power, express emotional feelings, but actually have very little Thoughtful Ability.....

Please withdraw such HUGE attacks on Iran.
Letter to Mr President Trump:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/ 03feb2026 at 0611 ET
Dear Mr President Trump, Herewith my posting at https://jim-quinn.blogspot.com/ Please withdraw such HUGE attacks on Iran.
03feb2026 Discovery!! This Sanction (I took a photo of my laptop screen, but I add the text below since YOU WILL NOT ALLOW ATTACHMENTS!) is part of a Deliberate Attempt to DESTROY A NATION!! https://search-uk-sanctions-list.service.gov.uk/designations/IRN0240/Entity
........ as follows
This Sanction is part of a Deliberate Attempt to DESTROY A NATION!!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A4W_reactor developed from:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A1B_reactor
Iran's 60% enrichment would do nicely for any ship or submarine - so why DESTROY IRAN for NOT having Nuclear Weapons!!
Presumably Hyped PREDICTION is the problem here - Govt scientists only know of nuclear weapons?? - Engineers Develop nuclear POWER!!
And to DESTROY Iran Air merely for being owned by the Govt is ridiculous AND STUPID HYSTERIA NASTY!! Transport of food, medicines, and household hygiene and sanitary goods? Protests and Burglary of Shops and Govt buildings.......
made WORSE by the RFI "hate emotion" imposed on All Citizens by Israel-NATO somehow.....
thus "hate" protests met by "hate" police, and huge angry reactions by BOTH sides result.
Few of their aircraft are Flying, but are likely being maintained by local "blacksmith hammer beaten" fabrications, instead of the Genuine SAFETY CERTIFIED SPARES, that these Sanctions STOP.
.............. Would you Fly Iran Air??
Sanctions so placed are performed as by a Switch - takes a moment By Govt to Do/Publish, and DeepHurt Results for Months/Years....
SANCTIONS ARE TOO EASY TO PLACE Mr UK, AND I DESPISE YOU FOR YOUR LACK OF THOUGHT !!!!!!!!!
The following is the end part of the President Trump contact form, as Stated above: the actual send is as above, but repeated in
The Iran (Sanctions) Regulations 2023 18 November 2024 UK IRN0240 OFSI Group ID 16611 Asset freeze, Director Disqualification Sanction The Director Disqualification Sanction was imposed on 09/04/2025.
UK Statement Of Reasons The Islamic Republic of Iran Airlines is an involved person within the meaning of the Iran (Sanctions) Regulations 2023 on the basis of the following grounds: (1) The Islamic Republic of Iran Airlines is owned or controlled, by a person, namely the Government of Iran, which is or has been involved in hostile activity by the Government of Iran; (2) The Islamic Republic of Iran Airlines is or has been involved in hostile activity by the Government of Iran by facilitating or giving support or assistance to the Iranian defence sector.

EU announce IRGC are declared as Terrorists - by Naive Ms Kaja Kallas, EU Foreign Policy Chief.
Thus she makes the situation worse, NOT Calming nor Easing Tensions (!!) for Iran (under enormous economic difficulty) then will escalate to DEFCON 4, where 5 = WAR, and 1 = QUIET and peace.
Unfortunately, this EU type of "so easy declaration", suggests to me that THEY DO THIS TO AVOID TALKING sense to...... any other or opposite Views. Similarly, their sanctions have been said to be CRUEL - a quick flick of a switch takes ONLY one minute, but the "recipient" SUFFERS for...... months/years.
EU reactions again loudmouth similar on the SLOW and Easy few Mig-31 flights VERY visible over Estonia briefly, MEANS:
Mr Putin Testing NATO Defences (oh !!), rather than a reasonable Request to talk peaceably, and with Thought, that the EU seem to me to NOT HAVE!!
Triggered by rapid inflation and the sharp depreciation of Iran’s currency, Protests quickly spread throughout the country.
It seems to me that "Somebody" is using RFI to STIR UP all Iranians - huge Protests and huge Reactions could be triggered by RFI causing emotional feelings of HATE BY ALL SIDES. Info at:
I note that Turkiye is very concerned about Iran Regime change, for it affects their stability and defences greatly. Many local countries favour a weakened Iran under the Islamic Republic rather than regime change, seeing in its fragility a measure of predictability that outweighs the uncertainties of radical change.
Oi Oi whats up doc? US military moves in the Middle East
Last updated:
Air Forces Central (AFCENT), the air component of CENTCOM, said the drills are designed to test how quickly US forces can move personnel and aircraft, operate from dispersed locations and sustain operations with minimal support.The drills follow the arrival of the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group in the region, according to a CENTCOM announcement on Monday. Near Oman? CENTCOM said all exercises would respect host-nation sovereignty and be conducted with local approvals.The US has also moved F-15E Strike Eagle fighter jets to the Middle East, while the UK has reportedly deployed Typhoon jets in a “defensive capacity.” Which Nation/s hosting? Trump told Axios that the US has a “big armada next to Iran. Bigger than Venezuela,” but added that Washington would prefer not to use force. “We have a lot of ships going that direction, just in case. I’d rather not see anything happen, but we’re watching them very closely,” Trump said. Oh!
Key developments at a glance
Multi-day US air power readiness exercises launched across CENTCOM region USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group now deployed in the Middle East F-15E Strike Eagle jets moved to the region; UK deploys Typhoon fighters.. the 51st State. Drills focus on rapid deployment, dispersed operations and partner coordination CENTCOM also conducting joint defensive exercises with Bahrain against drone threats Backdrop Protests in Iran over economic woes and political repression Rights groups estimate more than 6,100 killed; some claim far higher toll Trump threatens action but says Tehran wants talks Iran warns any attack will be met with force
World Long-Lat Balance Centre? Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye?
London to Bahrain about 7300km, Paris to Rio about 10400km
That 4380 miles non-stop to Bahrain - stop in Dakar for total 6270 miles to Rio heck of a good range a but still only 7hr30m total,
faster than any nonstop subsonic.

SaRS HAZOP Webinar, Effect on Govt
21jan2026 at 1230-1330pm - SaRS webinar (Safety and Reliability Society webinar: Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) Study Horror Stories) by Louise Whiting IChemE, of DeedahPSM Ltd.
You could have attended if you wanted to, for free.
1) I am NOT a SaRS or IChemE member, so these are my personal SaRS webinar thoughts, as an attendee for Curiosity sake, and thus CPD.
I am qualified CEng Fellow in IMechE, and SaRS and IChemE award those qualifications too.
I hope this "one of many Technical Project Analysees" helps you to see that Govt/UN has NO expertise in cost-effectively selecting ANY one project proposal/bid, and You MUST ASK and PAY Qualified Professional Engineers to help you therefore!!
Your Govt Scientists have NO knowledge here at all...... limited as they are to that individuals specific detail, and not at all familiar with major project holistics and its major financial investment in engineering design and prediction - before manufacture, test and use.
2)CLEARLY, CEng and Fellow are VERY important qualifications to AUDIT/Evaluate any project proposal, as identified in
and as I add to in Chapters 13 and 15 of my 2024 book "Tornado New Horizons", for currently the National Audit Office is totally non-quality academic!
It has Accountants/money thoughts alone, for it has NO Professional Engineers on board..... so how do you know what Quality you are buying? I have said this to you in emails for many many years now, but am continually ignored - are you going to continue so ignorantly, STUPID?
I started to cover it in my 2007 proposals for the 2012 London Olympics to Tessa Jowell, QE2, etc. where I showed the NAO were totally incompetent at Organisation - my CLEAR 2007 chart attached is SO MUCH Better than theirs, from 2007's HC252.
Do you have Professional Institutions that ensure Continuing Professional Development, CPD?
I will attend in Swindon (A regular Annual at this time of year) as in several years past, in company with several experienced in Rail, like me in Aerospace - the Young Engineers have to prove: That They Can Think beyond their training - to become CEng, Chartered...... eventually.
The National competition follows later in the year, as always.
4)There were 230 attendees to this good 21jan2026 SaRS webinar (Safety and Reliability Society webinar: Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) Study Horror Stories). Several screen-photo attachments below. 15 Q&A discussed, a few more ran out of time......
Notes JimQ made below are my selection - the Experts attending asked detailed questions of the HAZOP process, which I do not report on below, but Lecturer Louise Whiting IChemE, of DeedahPSM Ltd, answered all 15 in the Q&A......
a) HAZOP too early raises too many questions, since design incomplete, but integral with design at a later stage becomes valuable for questions/recommendations fewer and more valued.
MUST do a Pre-construction HAZOP.
b) Set an alarm (say 15 minutes) to limit discussion time when conversation a bit outside the HAZOP process.
c) MUST follow the Process (yes, all workload), and to get IT RIGHT takes time.
d) If you are not Knowledgable, you will miss one or more important HAZOP evaluations, through lacking engineering expertise!!
e) A HAZOP conducted virtually on line is very difficult to manage for you cannot see/comprehend enough of the diagrams/interactions....
f) Simple things like Relief valves - occasionally fail..... various reasons, so knowhow needed.
g) AI may be used to help produce the Exec Summary - but not before.Use of AI duringthe HAZOP process is a big nono, for it would "inadequately fill in" Report Gaps you have actually not covered (asChatGPTdoes with internet searches, for it does not ask enough questions/produce Options!!) - a follow up investigation would render the Report potentially badly damaged, for this Gap will then be identified (how many other Gaps possible then? - a likely question) and legal trouble results!!
5)I hope All of This Gmail helps....... have a good day!
You will find that Designer R.J.Mitchell regularly attended the construction and use of his 1st Spitfire aircraft in:
Leslie Howard taking the part of R.J.Mitchell.
Just so JimQ, with the Tornado engines hardware simulation all over the flight envelope, and so
where I supported MRCA-Tornado P01 1st flight analysis using the MBB Tertiary MagTape supplied to me at Bristol, and then a month later.....
alongside and in the Telemetry Room, the Certification Ground Runs and 1st Flight of P02, plus a few engine rebuilds and Installation setting up for BAe Warton's Early Flights of P02, P03 and P06, through to 1976.
I started on AFVG's M45G in 1966, proceeded through Performance Design and Simulation of the 2 shaft BS143 from June 1967 and the 3 shaft RB199 from June 1968, thru' 1971 Design Meeting Thoughts at Warton Headed by BAe's Len Milsom and my boss John Lane with me alone from Bristol, until 1972 when John Kitcatt joined us as Chief Flight Engine Dev Engr, preparing the Build Standards and Endurance Demonstration Hours, for 1974 onwards......
eventually to RAF support from 1980, to make sure IT WORKED as THEY Required, and JimQ left to go back to Design after the 1984 Red Flag Tornado 617 Squadron win, since the RAF no longer needed me, having not contacted me throughout all that RAF Preparation for Red Flag!
This is P02 at Mach 1.6 30,000ft, with Dave driving the RB199's up front, in 1975.
The 1st time I saw any RB199 hardware was the Nozzle, at the backend of its Vulcan Installation in 1973 - all previous work was Imagination and Calculation!!
I have sat in both Vulcan and Tornado P02's cockpits since, throttle Feel and so on, with corresponding cockpit gauges operating from the sensor simulations attached at the back of the aircraft..... engines not running, for you need a "Trained Cockpit Clearance" for that, especially..... Safe Escape, switches to OFF!
