DaveS,

"Technical critique must be precise, and ethical critique must have clarity, be to be properly actionable." Concerning technical critique apply this proposal to yourself instead personal attacks _ for what (personal attacks) JoeF blames DougS with your agreement _ . This forum is about AWE, not about ethics, but ethics is contained or not in the words. You (not DougS) critic some teams for both technical weakness and war purpose: be quiet,the Ministry of Defence should not be interested in weak projects .Morever you are badly placed to give lessons of ethics by practising the yellow journalism, deforming the words of those who dare to criticize Mothra-As-The-Winner-By-Definition (MATWBD), giving false informations to decrease your opponents. Details on that are numerous on precedent posts and have been numerous times mentioned again.So stop "lessons" about Ethics and describe the flapping conversion system of MATWBD.

DaveS,

As I noted it in different posts with detailed facts (please read numerous posts about them), your comportment is not ethical enough to allow you giving lessons about Ethics, but Dr.Sahotra Sarkar is of course welcomed to explain eventual ethical aspects of AWE and formulate critics about possible non-ethical use of AWE (at least when AWE will be used). By waiting it I note MikeB makes a pertinent critic about the non-possibility of land used close to AWE area, which can be considered as a step towards an ethics of safety for inhabitants.

DaveS,

To almost every message you break the usual rules on a forum: personal attacks, repeated doubtful insinuations."You must be very specific, hold my feet to the fire, and also help propose a true ethical corrective." OK! With you it is not necessary to maintain a record of the faults, it is enough to wait, generally not for a long time:"MikeB's use of censorship is the opposite approach, to silence critics and the topics they bring (with your presumed acceptance)." Both doubtful insinuation and lie. I do not know anything about what you write about "MikeB's use...", so my "presumed acceptance" is without object, only yellow journalism. So one time more you are not qualified to give lessons on Ethics.

"Thank you for conceding that ethics is a relevant AWE topic after all." I do not concede anything: It is a forum about AWE, not about Ethics, but your attacks under the false argument of false Ethics force me to answer about ethics, being topic-off, that until a qualified person comes to speak about real ethics involved in AWE. Try to have the sense of nuance rather than to counter the arguments in a childish way...

As you assert"my presumed acceptance", what you speak ill about companies or persons not agreeing with you like MikeB can be presumed as false assertions. Unfortunately there is no moderator to prevent this sort of words, only to counter DougS of whom extravagances are 1000 times less serious and hide some thruths about wind energy.

PS:Your arguing about my "AWE is not economically viable" is poor: I precise again that if you assert actually some AWE is economically viable, it is false (and non-ethical) since AWE is only in experiment phase to determine if it can be viable in the future into utility-scale (the good scheme is maybe not still found) ,or only into some niche. 

On one post Mike D.Moore's position against MikeB (and published by MikeB on his blog) is praised. On another post one speaks ill about "MikeB's censorship". So the author of both two messages is thus necessarily a liar, aggraving his case by mentioning "my presumed acceptation" of proved false "MikeB's censorship", still aggraving his case by trying to give lessons of Ethics, being only a yellow journalist.

I will be clear once and for all: all the malicious gossip of this author is presumed to be false, and all schemes of this athor are presumed to be non viable economically.

DaveS,

I presume your assertions to be false, in the same manner you invoque "my presumed acceptance" about false MikeB's censorship.

I am currently doing a case study on Kite Energy and I need Wind data over 150m.

Is there anyone who can provide the data so that I can then create a model

Thanks

Need wind data at high altitudes in order to do a model (excel..)

Can anyone tell me where?

Thanks

Dr.Gabor Dobos,

For me untethered AWE appears as a way towards autonomous aviation like on

1.    http://www.solarimpulse.com/  ,as a complement in wind energy. Providing energy towards grid via batteries looks difficult because of heavy infrastructure but untethered AWE can become a new aviation with a possible new economic plan: alternating leisure by charging batteries,and transport.
