And you can't share the answer because that would be compromising the test.One of the questions on my physics exam was if all the B-25 guns fired forward how much would the plane airspeed slow down?
They never used all guns+cannon together. Maybe on posters only - check the picture under all my posts.Eight 50's (I suppose 10, if you swung the turret around) AND a 75mm.
THAT'S firepower!
True, but it's fun to think about it.They never used all guns+cannon together. Maybe on posters only - check the picture under all my posts.
For tests all guns were fired together but in reality the stress to the structure was pretty big.

BTW the 8-gun nose B-25J was the most powerful flying machine with standard armament: 12+2 machine guns firing in one direction at the same time.

Cheers!
That is why sometimes one knows a bit and starts over thinking: what type if b-25 what engine and proppelor setting what load out of ammo in the belts, cant possible mean continued firing because a) meltdown of 1, b) 1 or more guns could have jammed. Etc etcOne of the questions on my physics exam was if all the B-25 guns fired forward how much would the plane airspeed slow down?
Sorry sir, but you're blowing well over .08. You'll have to come to the station house and sit it out for the rest of the night.
It was always interesting for me how the Lebanese emigrants decided to change the name of Aytou (their village in the Levant) to Itoo. Phonetically the latter covers the former perfectly. I live in Gloucester (part of Ottawa) and 99% of the people who call me, cannot spell or pronounce the name of the city correctly. Not to speak of my name - Yves.

But it's Oll Korrect for me...

Pronounced "why-vee" right?I also effectively noticed La Hood / Lahoud.
Here Yves is more commonly used in Brittany. Saint Yves is in fact the feast of the Bretons (19 may).
Best.

CorrectNope : pronounce simply : eev.
It is rather simple : English is a form of badly pronounced French.I've learned three foreign languages in my life - German, Russian, and Arabic. Straightforward pronunciation. French and Polish are complete enigmas to me. About 11 years ago I got hired for a German speaking CSR job. I could handle calls from anywhere in the German Sprachgebiet - Germany, Austria, even Switzerland. Then one day a lady called from Belgium. After trying futilely to grasp the French we ended up having to spell her name and address phonetically. Fortunately she spoke good English, and was very patient with me.
