I'm a native German and I don't get it. What is the speaker talking about? Is this in favor of trains or planes???
Both, kinda. His point was (if O recall correctly) to promote a faster light rail track from Munich central station to the FJS Airport, also in Munich. The main benefit would be that you "start your flight on the train" because the transfer is seamless (in theory).
Almost, he advocated for building a ~37 km long maglev train (the Transrapid) between Munich main station and Munich airport.
The project never made it past planning because it would've cost billions with limited economic gain.
as always new technology is developed in germany and then they dont manage to apply it on scale
hyper incompetent local politician Stoiber made heaps of terrible long term damaging decisions. But advocating for the locally developed transrapid isn't one. Wouldn't it be cool if it actually existed? His legacy remains this speech and rampant privatisation of public infrastructure which resulted in quality decline across the board😎 sadly no real 10 minute maglev
his incoherent speech in written form reminds me of orange man tho
