CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?

It was an artificial rain !!

Done by the meteorological department at the national centre of meteorology and seismology (NCMS)

To remove the air pollution on Dubai's atmosphere..

It is called 'cloud seeding' a latest technology to customize weather..

Cloud seeding, a form of weather modification, is the attempt to change the amount or type of precipitation that falls from clouds, by dispersing substances into the air that serve as cloud condensation or ice nuclei. The usual intent is to increase precipitation, but hail suppression is also widely practiced. Silver iodide and dry ice are the most commonly used substances in cloud seeding technology

An aircraft is putting dry ice on clouds which makes artificial rain

More rains are expected on these summer days...

Happy chilling out Dubai'ians!

Flying 101

Posted by LetzWave on Monday, April 19, 2010 , under Aircraft, Amazing, Creative, Funny Pictures | comments (0)

Welcome to Flying 101. In short, Kulula has overhauled its fleet and given eight state-of-the- art Boeing 737-800s a quirky new look. Flying 101 is one of the new designs, that also include camouflage and cows.

As you can see from these pictures, the plane is a tongue-in-cheek guide to what goes where. Explanations and arrows point to 'the big cheese' (the captain's quarters), 'the mile-high initiation chamber', and 'the black box' that's actually orange'.

The plane is populated with 'Kulula fans', who are apparently 'the coolest peeps in the world'. Or the passengers with the best sense of humor.
