Iceberg aircraft carrier

Doesn't Project Habakkuk, the British plan to build a huge iceberg-like floating aircraft platform to base in the Mid-Atlantic to fight U-boats during WWII, count as a variation of a VLFS? Or does the fact that it's made from ice mean it can't count as a "structure". It's made by man, out of a mixture of ice and wood pulp called Pykrete, so it's not naturally occurring. And I recall it being pretty big....45Colt 09:30, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Very large floating structure. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Poorly Worded Section

This bit here:

Air-cushion supported Mega-Floaters are mega floaters that are supported by an air cushion. They were invented by Jan Van Kessel of TU Delft.

It would be better to just say: Air-cushion supported Mega-Floaters were invented by Jan Van Kessel of TU Delft.

The first sentence is 100% redundant and doesn't provide meaningful information. Maybe if it were describing their operation or providing additional information, but it's just restating the same thing twice.
