Ngakho-ke lokho kusho uhambo lwamaminithi angaba ngu-20-30 okungase kukuthathe amabanga,

uma ucabanga nge-London, njengokusuka lapha e-Farnborough kwehle kuya e-Brighton noma e-Cambridge noma kuya e-Bristol noma ukuya e-Central London.

Uma ngicabanga ngezinye izindawo emhlabeni esizondiza kuzo ezihlanganisa i-Japan,

Le ndiza izovikeleka kakhulu kunendiza enophephela emhlane.
Izophepheka njengendiza evamile  i-Boeing noma indiza ye-Airbus.

Eqinisweni kuzoba enye yezindlela eziphephe kakhulu ongazihamba.
Kungani kuphephe kangaka?

Kahle kahle ngoba inama-propeller ayisishiyagalombili futhi wonke asebenza ngogesi.
Ngakho kuncane kakhulu okungaphuka uma kuqhathaniswa nendiza enophephela emhlane.
