It would most likely be "Relaiskasten" (no "r" near the end) - "Relais" meaning "Relais" and "Kasten" meaning "Box" cheers from germany and the knowledge you people here have is truly amazing.

can I be curious and ask if the plane is restored to airworthiness ? It looks like it if you’re bothering to get the landing gear working (not much use for that functionality in a standing display - right ? :cool:). And as a German myself, where might we be able to see the plane (or finished...

this forum is amazing... he asks for the purpose and gets the full schematics in the first reply... 👍👍👍

D.R.G.M. Is simply a sort of patent statement „Gebrauchsmuster„ is a lower version of a Patent / protection a functional concept / design or so. It’s not a company it simply states that the item is registered there and serves a indicator of a company having the copyright formtest device. if...

Nice with its predecessor a Mitsubishi A5M „Claude“ in the background !

before Michelangelo the Sisitine chapel had a painted blue sky with golden stars.... as you can see in wikipedia Sistine Chapel - Wikipedia a bit like this Sainte+Chapelle.png (967×726) | Sistine chapel, Brick detail, Paris photos :-)

i like the line „ As the T.V lacked self-sealing fuel tanks, they gained a reputation for rapidly catching fire when hit by enemy fire.“ according to the info before the first combat was on 10th may and the last plane shot down on 13th may... 13 planes in 4 days to „gain a reputation“...

this forum is simply amazing... :-)

wow thats quite a furniture line... my favorite is the "cluster bomb table" :-)

Hi all, I'm german and no way near a plane or WW2 expert, I'm just reading along sometimes... "Luftpresser" is a rather weird (or not a proper) word. It maybe a short form of "Luft-Kompressor" the "LKompr 100" could certainly support that. As Luft is mentioned so clearly probably no gas...

You are right, i‘m german and Sau is the term for the female pig and also a term for pigs in general. It can mean a person living in a mess or creating a mess or even a pervert, a person making a dirty joke etc. So „wilde Sau“ means just wild pig And „Wildsau“ or „Wildschwein“ both in one word...

thanks for that (both welcome and facts) I read that the Type 0 of the Zero fighters comes from it beeing built since year 2600 in the japanese calender 0 beeing the last digit in the year. I also read the Zero was used from 07/1939 on so that means that any "Type 98" or lower plane could...

Hi everybody, I'd like to find out what kind of airplanes the Japanese where using during their 1937 attack on Nanjing and before that in Shanghai. I guess it was before "Zero" time, as the Zeros seem to have come around 1939. thanks for any hint or info. I'm new to this area and am just...
