2. TASK We will be transporting passengers in high speed across the nation. For example a normal AMTRAK from NYC to Albany is about 3 hours with our transportation you will be there in less than 1.5 hours. We have chosen the Maglev train and Air car for this job its both eco-friendly and low cost. The costumers have the option of us picking them up from their home to our station. Air cars will be at all our Maglev stations, the first class costumers has free access to the vehicle anytime regular costumers have to pay a small fee.

6. Four operating modes Mode 1, mono energy compressed air : below 50km/h, only the compressed air in the tank is used. Mode 2, simple dual energy : range extension by using the compressed air in the tank which is heated using an energetic adjuvant for the external combustion chamber before it is introduced in the engine. Mode 3, autonomous dual energy : beyond 50 km/h the stored compressed air in the tanks is not used anymore. A combined air compressor produces compressed air at working pressure which is then heated in the external combustion chamber before being transferred in the active chamber and expanded in the work cylinder. This operating mode is also used below 50 km/h when the tank is empty. Mode 4, Dual energy with recompression of the tanks : an energy sharing occur using part of the produced compressed air (by the combined compressor) to run the vehicle (as in mode 3) and rest is directed towards a booster to refill the tanks

7. Environment Factor It is powered by the expansion of compressed air, using no combustion at all, and the exhaust is entirely clean and cool enough for use in the internal air conditioning system all pollution is completely eliminated in urban areas by using the 100% Compressed Air operating mode Economic Factor Pricing for MDI's cars, is expected to start at about 3,500 euros, with some models ranging up to about twice that price refueled in minutes from an air compressor at specially equipped gas stations and can go 200 km on a 1.5 euro fill-up -- roughly 125 miles for $3 A global comparison of the conventional production system with the MDI concept -1/3 of the land surface is necessary -1/4 of a conventional assembly factory -1/5 of the total investment. 30% more employees necessary.

8. Safety Factors In the case of a major accident, where the tanks are ruptured, they would not explode since they are made of carbon fiber, not metal. Instead, an elongated crack would appear in the tank, without exploding, and the air would simply escape, producing a loud but harmless noise In the case of a major accident, where the tanks are ruptured, they would not explode since they are made of carbon fiber, not metal. Instead, an elongated crack would appear in the tank, without exploding, and the air would simply escape, producing a loud but harmless noise tanks hold 90 cubic metres of harmless breathable air, compressed to 300 bars tanks hold 90 cubic metres of harmless breathable air, compressed to 300 bars The seatbelt system is different from what we know. One part of the belt is anchored to the floor of the car, like traditional cars. The other part of the belt, instead of being attached to the side of the car, is also anchored to the floor of the vehicle. This helps to secure the bodies of the driver and passengers in the case of a collision The seatbelt system is different from what we know.

12. Environmental Benefits Maglev vehicles emit no pollution. When they consume electricity, no carbon dioxide is emitted. Maglev does not burn oil, but instead consumes electricity, which can be produced by coal-fired, nuclear, hydro, fusion, wind, or solar power plants In low-pressure tunnels or tubes, like those proposed for Switzerland’s Metro system, energy consumption per passenger mile will shrink to the equivalent of 10,000 miles per gallon Maglev vehicles are much quieter which is particularly important for urban and suburban areas Maglev uses unobtrusive narrow-beam elevated guide ways, its footprint on the land is much smaller than that of highways, airports, and railroad tracks

13. Economic Benefits 1. Much lower guide way cost—$12 million per mile, compared to $40 million to $60 million per mile. 2. Much faster payback times—5 years instead of 50, by carrying piggyback trucks. 3. Ability to use existing, conventional railroad tracks for Maglev vehicles 4. Operating costs will be only 3 cents per passenger mile and 7 cents per ton mile, compared to 15 cents per passenger mile for airplanes, and 30 cents per ton mile for intercity trucks 5. Maglev because of its potential for greatly reducing the cost of launching payloads into orbit will open up space to much greater usage, colonization, and eventually tourism

14. Safety Benefits Distance between Maglev vehicles on a guide way, and the speed of the vehicles, are automatically controlled and maintained by the frequency of the electric power fed to the guide way There is no possibility of collisions between vehicles on the guide way Electronic switching of vehicles at high speeds from the main guide way to off-line stations for loading and unloading. since the guide ways are elevated, there is no possibility of collisions with autos or trucks at grade crossings the failure rate of superconducting magnets is very low, the probability of two magnets failing in a period of few minutes, the time needed to reach a stopping point, would be less than once in a million years of operation
