Cross & Cockade International SERIALS with PHOTOGRAPHS
Cross & Cockade International THE FIRST WORLD WAR AVIATION HISTORICAL SOCIETY Registered Charity No 1117741 www.crossandcockade.com INDEX for SERIALS with PHOTOGRAPHS This is a provisional index of all the photographs of aircraft with serial numbers in the 46 years of the Cross & Cockade Journal. There are only photographs with identifiable serials, no other items are indexed. Following the Aircraft serial number is the make & model in parentheses, then page number format is: first the volume number, followed by the issue number (1 to 4) between periods with the page number(s) at the end. The cover pages use the last three characters with a 'c' (cover) 'f' - 'r'(front-rear), '1'(outside) '2' (inside). There are over 4180 entries in three categories, British individual aircraft, other countries individual aircraft, followed by airships & balloons. Regretfully, copies of the photographs are not available.

Aerodynamic Optimization of a Biplane Configuration Using Differential Evolution
Computer Aided Optimum Design in Engineering X 209 Aerodynamic optimization of a biplane configuration using differential evolution R. W. Derksen & A. G. Kraj Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Abstract This paper presents our work on designing a biplane configuration that has a minimum drag to lift ratio. This problem is a mixed optimization problem in that both discrete and continuous variables are used. Fourteen parameters were used to fully describe the biplane configuration and calculate performance. Performance calculations were based on Munk’s general biplane theory. Each wing required six parameters; airfoil profile type, span, tip and root chord lengths, angle of attack, and sweep angle. Two parameters were used to define the horizontal stagger and vertical gap between the two planes. The airfoil profile types were stored in an indexed database which allowed us to obtain the section’s aerodynamic characteristics. Our analysis showed that differential evolution found the optimum solution quickly. The characteristics of the resultant optimum solution will be discussed in detail, along with our observations of how the process needs to be adjusted for optimum performance. Keywords: aerodynamic design, optimization, biplanes, aerodynamic configuration. 1 Introduction The following sections will provide a brief review of the state-of-the-art of aerodynamic optimization. This will be followed by a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the biplane configuration. The introductory comments will conclude with the motivation for doing this work. 1.1 The practice of aerodynamic optimization A quest for performance has been a key component in the development of aviation from the start. -

Wings of War FAQ V1.0 5/5/2005 Here Are Some of the Most Common
have two evenly-matched sides, so it should probably say "2 or 4" players." A) The design team often played with three players: one player flying two planes, the other two in a team with one plane each. We never tried three on three: each player flying one plane each. As a non-historical scenario that's possible, but inventing it is left to the imagination of the players. Q) Which is the minimum age to play Wings of War? A) The box indicates ages 10+, but 8-year-old kids Wings of War FAQ v1.0 5/5/2005 can play successfully with the basic rules. Six-year- old kids can play with some help in handling the Here are some of the most common questions about maneuvers available each turn. On some online forum the game, its components, rules, and the historical we read about even younger players. The age listed background of the airplanes depicted. on the box refers to the age of someone that could read the rules by themselves and play the game on GENERAL QUESTIONS their own. Q) Is Watch Your Back! an expansion set for GAME COMPONENTS Famous Aces? Q) How much is the game language-dependent? A) No, at the moment there are no "expansions" for Wings of War. There are just two independent sets, A) All the components are language independent, Famous Aces and Watch Your Back! Either one of except for the rulebook. You can find an Italian them can be played with 2-4 players. Watch Your edition by Nexus Editrice, an English edition by Back! isn't an expansion since it can be played on its Fantasy Flight Games, a German edition by Mad own without owning Famous Aces. -
