Monzo Staff Weekly Q&A - Simon B (COps Community Specialist) - Million User Special!

Although a definitive answer would of course require further measurements, published species-wide averages of wing length and body mass, initial Strouhal estimates based on those averages and cross-species comparisons, the Lund wind tunnel study of birds flying at a range of speeds, and revised Strouhal numbers based on that study all lead me to estimate that the average cruising airspeed velocity of an unladen European Swallow is roughly 11 meters per second, or 24 miles an hour.

I didn’t!

My band released two albums last year : “Upgrade” and “Sidetrkd”.

Here’s a deluxe version with both.

I have another band in a different genre where we’re working on our debut EP at the moment as well :grinning:

Shenmue 1&2 on the Dreamcast were amazing :heart_eyes::heart_eyes:. I was hoping for literally over a decade for the next instalment to be announced before it actually was!

I pledged way too much money on the Kickstarter for Shenmue 3. I’m taking at least a week paid holiday once that comes out :joy:
