One important element of three main composite parts. of the structure is the air inlet. Fatigue life of the metal air inlet is one of the factors limiting service life of entire aircraft. The new generation L-39NG jet trainer (see Fig. 1) represents deep modernization of the L-39 combining latest engine and aircraft systems technology with traditional advantages of L-39s legacy.

  • L-39 Albatros
    L-39 ALBATROS Type: L-39 Albatros Max Speed: 490 KIAS / Mach 0.80 Max Range: 864 NM G-Limits: +8.0g / -4.0g Ceiling: 36,000 ft Max Climb Rate: 4,130+ fpm Max Endurance: 3.8 hours The L-39 Albatros is a highly capable, stable, subsonic aircraft that first flew in November 1969. The aircraft is produced in the Czech Republic and it is constructed in conjunction with plans developed by Aero Vodochody and its chief designer, Jan Vlček. The L-39 is flown worldwide, principally with former Soviet allies. The aircraft continues to fly in countries as diverse as Iraq, Chechnya, Libya, Syria and Russia. The Albatros is flown primarily as a trainer or light attack aircraft similar in mission to the Italian MB339 or M-346, the British Hawk and the US Goshawk. The L-39 is designed with many distinguishing characteristics. The aircraft possesses a uniquely tall vertical tail that is swept back and is one of its dominant features. The tail, with its inset rudder, provides directional control to the aircraft. The L-39 has thick wings that provide ample lift for the airframe, and each wing has provisions to mount stores or fuel tanks that extend the range of the L-39. Operational g-force limits at 4,200 kg are +8g/-4g. Side-by-side airbrakes are located under the L-39 fuselage slightly ahead of the wing’s leading edge. The L-39 has variable-incidence horizontal stabilizers mounted on the rear of the aircraft at the base of the rudder.

  • Energy Security in Transition
    ENERGY SECURITY IN TRANSITION: PREVIEWCOPING WITH ENERGY IMPORT DEPENDENCE IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC, SLOVAKIA AND HUNGARY By Andrej Nosko A Doctoral Dissertation submitted to Central European University Department of Political Science In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science Supervisor: Professor Béla Greskovits Budapest, Hungary 2013 CEU eTD Collection DECLARATION I hereby declare that no parts of this thesis have been accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions. This thesis contains no materials previously written and/or published by another PREVIEWperson, except where appropriate acknowledgment is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Andrej Nosko CEU eTD Collection ii ABSTRACT In this dissertation I study why countries under comparable international conditions prioritize energy security differently. Why do their domestic responses of coping with structural position of PREVIEWenergy import dependence vary over time, and what explains the type of variation and its timing? By answering these questions, this dissertation contributes to the broader research field on temporal and spatial variation of domestic responses to comparable international conditions. In order to understand the factors of prioritizing security in energy policy, and their facilitating and inhibiting conditions in countries in transition, through case selection, I isolate effects of fundamentals and external factors. As I observe in the Central and East European countries in transition, policies enhancing energy security are prioritized when three aspects coincide and interact: When popular perception of threat, which can plausibly be connected to the energy supply, is high and concentrated among supporters of ruling parties; when former elites who can draw on personal links with the perceived source of threat, and thus can dampen the effects of threat, are removed from power; and when incumbent industrial interests are de-concentrated and face obstacles in promoting their interests.

  • L-29 Delfín CZECHOSLOVAK JET TRAINER and LIGHT ATTACK AIRCRAFT 1/48 SCALE PLASTIC KIT Profipack #8099
    L-29 Delfín CZECHOSLOVAK JET TRAINER AND LIGHT ATTACK AIRCRAFT 1/48 SCALE PLASTIC KIT ProfiPACK #8099 INTRO The onset of military jets necessitated new training airplanes, preparing student pilots for demanding machinery better than piston trainers. The Fouga Magister took off for first time during 1952 as the first successful example of this new breed. Shortly afterwards also the countries of the then Warshaw Pact (WP) realized the need for such an aircraft. The Czechoslovak Ministry of National Defense (MNO) specified the tactical and technical requirements for future jet trainer in 1955, demanding use of the domestic turbojet M710 engine with one stage axial- flow compressor, which was under the development at the time. The project took off under the C-29 designation with Zdeněk Rublič starting the work on the design immediately. Later on, Karel Tomáš joined him as a second main designer, and both were assisted by younger prospect Jan Vlček, who, in 1960, took the lead role in further development, as both the main designers retired. Later on Vlček used his experience from L-29 in design of successor L-39 Albatros. Shortly after the start of pre-design work the C-29 attracted attention of Soviet officials, who were acquainted with the project in early stage of development. The reason was obvious: while Czechoslovakia needed only some 100 of trainers, the demand of Soviet Union promised orders of thousands of them. The first consultations between Czech and Soviet representatives took place in Moscow in May 1956 and the requirement for turbojet engine with a robust radial-flow compressor instead of axial-flow one emerged as one of the main requests from Soviet side.
