Here it is Skreemr, the new Concorde supersonic jet rival

In the modern world everyone wants a bigger, more powerful, faster, and more everything. Here it is Skreemr, the supersonic jet more faster than the Concorde.

If previously Concorde has announced it will made Concorde 2.0 which has speed five times the speed of sound, now they already have a competitor. The Concorde's competitors considered great enough because Skreemr able to fly 10 times the speed of sound.

A concept aircraft named Skreemr (illustrated)  could reach speeds exceeding Mach 10 - that's 10 times the speed of sound. The design features four wings and two large rockets. (Picture from: http://dailym.ai/1HaEDiN)

The supersonic jet is made by two Canadian engineers named Charles Bombardier and Ray Mattison. Bombardier has recently announced his vision to create a super fast jet plane can carry passengers from New York to London in just 30 minutes.

Designers Charles Bombardier and Ray Mattison envisage the craft could be launched at using a magnetic railgun system (illustrated with the craft) to catapult it into the sky at high speed. (Picture from: http://dailym.ai/1HaEDiN)

The Skreemr's super fast speed will be obtained from the four wings and two rockets on the back. The aircraft will take off using a magnetic rail system that is fired into the air or the electrical take off system.

Liquid-oxygen or kerosene rockets would be fired to enable the concept plane (illustrated above) to rapidly climb higher in the sky and reach Mach 4, which is around twice the speed of Concorde. (Picture from: http://dailym.ai/1HaEDiN)

Any system that will be used, Bombardier said that it takes a long time to make. He worried passengers will be exposed to the pressure force is too strong if the aircraft is launched at speed of Mach 10, or 10 times faster than sound speed.

This aircraft can carry 75 brave people someday. Currently Bombardier is still making this aircraft for military purposes, but he said it is quite possible in the future the public can use this plane. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC INDONESIA | DAILYMAIL]

Vario Café Racer Custom

By using a 2007 Honda Vario custom bike with café racer style, Ivan Jeriko will go to the 24th Annual Mooneyes Yokohama Hot Rod Custom Show 2015 in Japan at December 4 to 8, 2015 later. How come?

"Most major spruce up, because when we participated the contest in Bandung, our working time is very tight, so the less than perfect," he said further.

One of the targets are to enhance the bike's dimensions and proportions. "Previously the wheelbase less long and too looked up," he explained. The action taken by bending the main chassis, precisely under the handlebar. Its upside down suspention was cut about 15 cm.

Next, we overhauled the engine mounting by shifting the engine position to the right. "Let the front wheel and rear is centered," he added. While the rear chassis formed from a rolled pipe which is considered good.

Here are several detailed pictures of the 2007 Honda Vario Jap-Style custom bike. (All pictures taken from: http://bit.ly/1MyBfkl)

This result looks more cute than Zoomer-X who became the inspiration. Especially after the other detailed items, such as the plate under the seat and a drum made of sheet aluminum and cut using a laser. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | OTOMOTIFNET]
