Re: Hurricanes provide a needed function

Different requirements for land vs. air, but if it can handle air flight, I don't see why it wouldn't be able to handle land operations. But, the turbines for these wind generators would have to be much larger than those on a plane -- if you increase the surface area under the force of the wind, you increase the stress on the apparatus. Be an interesting modeling study, nevertheless.
