That just happened! Pretty cool View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5bTbVbe4e4

Here is a pretty good demo of how a radial engine works: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGKXdYCksAQ Doesn't explain everything, but is pretty good ...

I didn't know these guys even existed - but it looks pretty cool! View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjZMWI77b84

Here a pretty scathing report on a dogfight test of the F-35 versus an older-block F-16. And we paid more for it than any other aircraft in history. The F-35 Can't Beat The Plane It's Replacing In A Dogfight: Report Draw your own conclusions. I was paying a LOT of attention when the F-35 was...

It seems Planes of Fame are having to apply for a waiver to give rides in their WW2 aircraft. There is a webpage open for public submissions, go along and vote 'in favor' (if you so agree, if not, then b*gger off!) I think its pretty funny that I can vote in this, since I'm a New Zealand...

If there was not a WW2, say Hitler dies of a heart attack or something like that pre-1939, how long would it take the US to develop jet engines without British assistance? They were pretty behind compared to the Europeans and needed British developments to jump start their own program in 1943.

This kit has been sitting on my shelf 90% complete for probably 2 years now. I never fully put it away because I wanted it there taunting me so that I would finally finish it. Well, mission accomplished at last. Maybe not my best effort, but she looks good on the shelf and I'm glad to have her...

Hello, Been scouring for an answer and haven't found a definitive one, was hoping someone around here might know: Did the Yak-1 have a heater for pilots or did they have to suffer in the cold (particularly looking at its service in 1942 and early 1943)? And if it did have one, did it work...

My wonderful wife surprised the heck out of me for my birthday on Saturady and got me an hour and a half flight lesson. I was impressed before with WWII pilots (and pilots in general) but after experiencing it for myself that amount is 100 fold! I did pretty well for my first time...

Some folks in here have asked several times about wing design. Attached is a chapter on wing design so you can read it and get your feet wet. It isn't exactly the last word on the subject, but is a pretty good starting place for budding wing designers. No paricular reason, just interesting, at...

Not a bad movie. The CGI graphics were pretty good. Highly recommended.

Well my first diorama is getting close to being done. 1/48 Tamiya P-47 and staff car . PSP is from Eduard .I have crew to paint still and 55 gallon drums to build. Pretty happy for my first one :) Cheers Brian
