It could become too warm in flight for the relative wind which ineluctably pushes the flames back to the tail , from a fire born in fuselage or wings without dinstinctions.....
He could be a Milan supporter .:D
I agree that they deserve a penality.I disagree with such an heavy pain since an evidence that the result of any game was illegally arranged in 2004-2005 has never been proved.
In the last thirties some naval aircraft as Blackburn Skua or Lioret-Nieuport 411 were projected to melt the roles of dive-bomber and fighter, the results were usually fairly good dive bombers and mediocre , too heavy fighters.
The aim of the original proget was not anyway a true "air...
Mr Berlusconi and his own Mediaset group are now happy:
-Mr Galliani, a puppeteer on the same level as Mr Moggi but a little smarter will be banned for 1 year only instead of being radiated as a duty, if we take in consideration his double role as Milan manager and federal president.
-Milan (...
I my opinion Italy expressed the very best qualities of our play, better than Spain 1982, in a world competition which would have left us without any medals exactly as Nederland offered the best soccer ever seen in the 70s without any real victory: I'm speaking about Argentina 1978 in...
"This charlatan said that France was just ' a team of Islamics, Communists and Niggers'
I am not ashamed to be Italian, but I am ashamed that such an idiot IS unfortunately Italian."
The idiot is two time idiot , a rough kind of racist man.
Don't forget French politicians , an ELEGANT...
According to most of the historical sources Re-2007 was a post-war design ( 1947-1949).
It is quite strange, anyway, that acording to Anthony Kay 's "German jet engines and gas turbine development", pag 85 , ""Italy was interested inusing Jumo 109-004 B to power her first jet fighter...
Sea Fury handling and performances were superlative ( a "jet with propeller" according to the pilots)but its Centaurus engine had a very high fuel consumption. It is an important parameter for a naval fighter.A low fuel consumption was one of the best advantages of Mitsubishi Zero.
From engineer Ciampaglia's book,pag 131, textual: " CS 5 giroplano a reazione con motore singolo definito elico-taxi con turbocompressore ed una potenza di 400 HP caratterizato da un condotto di scarico del getto attraverso il mozzo dell' elica "= CS 5 elico-taxi (sic) jet gyroplane with a...
Sorry for the bad quality of the picture, the imaged was not good already on the book and my scanner doesn' t work very well.....
Red Admiral, could you please the source where you have found of the extremely interesting motorjet aircraft CS3?
Is there a good plan of the fuselage , in...
According to "Dimensione Cielo" edizioni bizzarri, 1975 Piaggio P 133 had "tre armi fisse da 12.7 nel muso"=three 12.7 mm fixed machine guns in the nose controlled and aimed by the pilots like the fixed wing machine gun of Cant Z-1018.
It is possible that one further SAFAT were in the nose in...
Polikarpov Po2 was not born as a bomber at all, it was fitted for this role for emergency motivations exactly as Tiger Moth would have been proposed by someone as emergency light bomber in 1939.......this doesn't mean that Po-2 was not an awfully effective aircraft in its role of night...
It was not similar it was much heavier, with 18 cylinders Vs 14 cylinders of Piaggio PXI.The former engine didn't have the best power/weight ratio for a fighter without a turbocharger .
Alfa-Romeo 135 (=double Bristol Mercury) was not reliable in 1940 yet.
If you look for a good...
