Some actual drawings have been discovered of the Jet Mosquito only a few years ago, along with drawings of the DH.101 and DH.102. They have been left in the care of Tony Butler. I've got a copy of the DH.101 drawings which Tony gave to me while I was figuring out the actually size of it. An...
Well, it did go down a steep slope that was at the end of the runway. At Calgary International, the end of Runway 11 is just like it and I've always sort of wondered what could happen (I worked there for four years out on the airfield)
Being a steel fabricator/welder by trade myself, my thoughts are as soon as they get the manufacturing and welding under cover, the weld results will improve dramatically. Being out in the open is not good practice in my view, especially when you're dealing with these high pressure scenarios.
That map is a little misleading, at a quick glance it would suggest the whole of USA and Canada are infected. But News reports here in Canada have said two people in Toronto have been confirmed as infected. Not sure how many in the USA are though.
I read a news report that several airliners had flown out of the airport before this flight did. I can't remember if that was one above or one of the news channels.
It was fortunate that there was some individual outside at the time, with their camera pointed in the right direction, videoing the night time sky ------- ;)
Not sure what historical perspective there is, I've seen photos of full size aircraft stuck on a pole for radar measurements, but your testing range is only so far and limited to whatever height the subject has been elevated don't you think. I just thought having a flying example coming in at...
Well I did think that was how it was done, but trying to detect a shape like that at very long range and at the operational flight levels (also speculated), would require a flying model I would think. And detect it as soon as possible ----
And just look at the 'tug-of-war' video posted above, when I first read the title I thought they had miss-identified the Ford truck --- (they have a smaller one)
Yeah, right, so it was ---- but the Tudor's fuselage was 10'-0" in diameter, the 35mm that just imagine has worked out is 8'-0" in 1/72 scale. Same as the York which was also designed at the same time ;)
Well, keep in mind Avro bomber aircraft of the time (and the York), all had rectangular cross section fuselages, the much later Tudor being the first with a round fuselage.
Nope, I had problems opening it so I don't trust it.
Whole functioning airframes have been used before, right ? And everyone is only speculating that it is a strike drone, right ? It's what everyone wants to believe
A Russian plastic model kit company called Arma Hobby has just released a 1/72 kit of this ""secret"" aircraft in it's prototype form (like in the first photos posted in this thread) . I'd post a link but it's all in Russian so I won't.
I know everyone is calling it a strike drone, but what if...
So if reading what has been said about the few F-35's (any variant) that are flying, and what a "game changer" they are when flying with other aircraft types, what would 330 of them do ----
