This speed range and cryogenic fuel wiil impose new demands on the airframe, requiring new materials and structural concepts to result in viable payloads. To enable timely application of advances in structures technclogy at least risk, large representative structwal comoonents will require testing in the increasingly severe flight environments. To accomplish useful flight tests and demonstrations, a versatile, high-speed research zirplane has been studied at Langley Research Center. Some objectives of this study are to define a research airplane concept that is capable of testing realistic size components of pertinent future structures at 1-ast expenditure of resources. Reported herein are experimental considerations for a hypersonic research airplane, a means of achieving versatile research capability, a discussion of alternative thermal protection systems, and a definition of the structure and thermal protection system selected ;or the high-speed research airplane.

  • F-5E Tiger II
    F-5E Tiger II USER MANUAL Virtavia F-5E Tiger II – DTG Steam Edition Manual Version 2.0 0 Introduction The F-5E Tiger II is an improved version of the original F-5 Freedom Fighter that entered service with the US Military in the early 1960s. It is a lightweight, supersonic fighter-bomber with great agility and load- carrying capability. Over 1400 examples of this type were built between 1972 and 1987, and the type has seen widespread service in the Air Forces of many nations, some of which still operate the type today. Additionally the US Navy still operates the type as an aggressor fighter at its Naval Fighter Weapons Schools.

  • DCS FW190A-8 Anton Guide
    DCS GUIDE FW190-A8 ANTON By Chuck LAST UPDATED: 14/05/20201 TABLE OF CONTENTS • PART 1 – INTRODUCTION • PART 2 – CONTROLS SETUP • PART 3 – COCKPIT & GAUGES • PART 4 – START-UP PROCEDURE • PART 5 – TAKEOFF • PART 6 – LANDING • PART 7 – ENGINE & FUEL MANAGEMENT • PART 8 – AIRCRAFT LIMITATIONS • PART 9 – WEAPONS • PART 10 – RADIO • PART 11 – NAVIGATION • PART 12 – AIR COMBAT • PART 13 – TAMING TAILDRAGGERS Special thanks to Paul "Goldwolf" Whittingham for creating the guide icons. 2 The Focke-Wulf Fw190 Würger (English: Shrike) is a German single-seat, single-engine fighter aircraft designed by Kurt Tank in the late 1930s and widely used during World War II. Along with its well-known counterpart, the Messerschmitt A8 Bf 109, the Fw190 became the backbone of the Luftwaffe's Jagdwaffe (Fighter Force). The twin-row BMW 801 radial - engine that powered most operational versions enabled the Fw190 to lift larger loads than the Bf 109, allowing its use as a day fighter, fighter-bomber, ground-attack aircraft and, to a lesser degree, night fighter. FW190 ANTON The Fw190A series' performance decreased at high altitudes (usually 6,000 m (20,000 ft) and above), which reduced its effectiveness as a high-altitude interceptor. From the Fw190's inception, there had been ongoing efforts to address this with a turbosupercharged BMW 801 in the B model, the much longer-nosed C model with efforts to also turbocharge its chosen Daimler-Benz DB 603 inverted V12 powerplant, and the similarly long-nosed D model with the Junkers Jumo 213. Problems with the turbocharger installations on the -B and -C subtypes meant only the D model would see service, entering service in September 1944.

    P-47 Thunderbolt USAAF P-47D "Razorback" configuration Type Fighter-bomber Manufacturer Republic Aviation Company Designed by Alexander de Seversky Alexander Kartveli Maiden flight 6 May 1941 Introduction 1942 Retired 1955, US ANG Primary user United States Army Air Force Number built 15,686 Unit cost US$83,000 in 1945[1] Variants Republic XP-72 The American Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, also known as T-bolt, Juggernaut or Jug was the largest single-engined fighter of its day. It was one of the main United States Army Air Force (USAAF) fighters of the Second World War. The P-47 was effective in air combat but proved especially adept in the ground attack role. Its modern-day equivalent, the A-10 Thunderbolt II takes its name from the P- 47. The Thunderbolt also served with a number of other Allied air forces. Development The P-47 Thunderbolt was the product of two Georgian immigrants, Alexander de Seversky and Alexander Kartveli, who had left their homeland to escape the Bolsheviks. P-43 Lancer / XP-47B 1 P-47 fires its M2 machine guns during night gunnery. In 1939, the Republic Aviation Company designed an AP-4 demonstrator powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-1830 radial engine with a belly-mounted turbocharger. While the resulting P-43 Lancer was in limited production, Republic had been working on an improved P-44 Rocket with a more powerful engine, as well as on a fighter designated the AP-10. The latter was a a lightweight aircraft powered by the Allison V-1710 liquid-cooled V-12 engine and armed with a pair of .50 caliber (12.7 mm) machine guns.

  • Airprox Incidents Involving Aircraft Arriving at Or Leaving Heathrow
    Corporate Communications External Information Services 6 August 2014 FOIA reference: F0002014 Dear XXXX I am writing in respect of your recent request dated 26 July 2014, for the release of information held by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). Your request: 1. All official 'near misses' involving civil aircraft both arriving and leaving at Heathrow from 1st January 2004 to July 25th 2014 2.. Any incidents relating to permanent or temporary technical failure while airborne on both take-off and approach for landing, which could have potentially endangered life from 1st January 2004 to July 25th 2014. This would include engine failure, landing gear failure, structural integrity etc. Our response: Having considered your request in line with the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA), we are pleased to be able to provide the information below. Incident reports are provided to the CAA under the terms of the Mandatory Occurrence Reporting (MOR) scheme, as described under Article 226 of the Air Navigation Order 2009 (ANO). Each report made is reviewed and, where appropriate, further investigation carried out and action taken. 1. We have searched the UK CAA database for all occurrences that have involved an Airprox (official ‘near miss’ subject to a review by the UK Airprox Board) inside UK controlled airspace during the period 1 January 2004 to all processed reports as at 25 July 2014 for an aircraft (regardless of nationality) which has either departed London Heathrow or was en route to London Heathrow and provided the information in attachment one. Civil Aviation Authority Aviation House GW Gatwick Airport South Crawley West Sussex England RH6 0YR www.caa.co.uk Telephone 01293 768512 [email protected] Page 2 The UK Airprox Board (UKAB) separately collects reports of Airprox incidents and produces a regular review of assessed Airprox incidents, which can be found at http://www.airproxboard.org.uk).
