I have watched this fellow do very informative reports on the Orville Dam and various Commercial plane crashes. He is a Commercial airliner pilot. Very intelligent fellow that does an excellent job of breaking this stuff down into understandable terms. He has a video/post on the current electric shut down.

Some highlights he does not go into very much because of YOU tube's rules. 1) This shut down is a result of new rules after last years Camp wild fire. 2) The trees growing out over the lines is partly the result of PGE being forced to use and spend MILLION of dollars to raise it renewable energy percentages. Also in some areas they had been stopped from aggressively trimming trees back by environmental groups.

This problem has many causes but one of them is lack of infrastructure maintenance. The Orville spillway problem was from this too. In the US, massive amounts of infrastructure repairs and maintenance has not been done in the past. It is showing up NOW with system failures. "NEW" projects are politically exciting and have huge amounts of taxpayer support. Infrastructure maintenance is not very exciting and does not have the support it needs to have. Look at the bridges that are in poor repair in most states.

CA PGE electric shut down.

P.S. Just for your information Mr. Brown is currently on a medical leave from his commercial pilot job. He is fighting prostate cancer. His PSA was higher than they wanted it to be and he had a treatment that should complete his recovery BUT it causes it PSA count to go SKY high for months. Until it is back in the acceptable range he can not fly due to not meeting the FAA medical requirements. This includes his person plane as well. He can fly his plane with another pilot in the plane with him. He has to fly so many hours to keep his pilot registrations. This mainly his private plane. His commercial will have to be caught back up when his PSA is better. Then he has a lot of training before he can pilot commercial aircraft again. The only reason I am bringing this up is that he is taking donations for his videos over on Patreon. His income is very reduced until he is back flying again.

The British government still reeling from the effects of the war on the economy, approached the Nuffield organization to see if they would design and build an "ALL NEW" British built wheeled tractor, suitable for both British and world farming. ...
