Hehehe. Signs that it ain't gonna be built:
A. The airfield. They want to move this thing to tropical vacation areas and block out the sun? Are they nuts? You can open up that deck space without much impact on your business by designing a much more modest method of airlink.
B. The cheap 3-D model. Check out their drawings; they're a hoot! They've got a subway train on one of the cutaway floors. DUde, the thing's not even a mile long. And check out the "machinery decks"
C. Their boasts of time invested: 4 full-time meployees and 15,000 man-hours over 8 years. Even if that weren't a lie, that's equivalent to one employee working full-time for one year. Hell, some AH pilots get that time in in one year.
D. Their method of selling commercial and residential space. HAve you checked it out? They claim to have two decks sold out already. Only one Commercial and one residential deck left, and take a look, spots are going fast! Harharhar. They've got deck layouts for the stuff they want to sell, but no ship blueprints yet. sheesh!
E. Their lack of a coherent business plan. Where are they going to park this ship? How are they gonna build it? They claim to have bought some abandoned dock space in the Honduras. Tee-hee. How are they gonna get the billions necessary to put this together? Surely not by ripping off a few oilbarons (which is what they're doing right now).
F. They're selling retail space, but they don't mention anywhere having made provisions to house the vast numbers of (atrociously underpaid) workers needed to run the shops, restaurants, casinos and potatohouses they promise.
Yeah, it's pretty funny. I'm gonna go see if I can scrounge up a few mark 13s just in case they build it.
