  • P-38 Lightning
    P-38 Lightning P-38 Lightning Type Heavy fighter Manufacturer Lockheed Designed by Kelly Johnson Maiden flight 27 January 1939 Introduction 1941 Retired 1949 Primary user United States Army Air Force Produced 1941–45 Number built 10,037[1] Unit cost US$134,284 when new[2] Variants Lockheed XP-49 XP-58 Chain Lightning The Lockheed P-38 Lightning was a World War II American fighter aircraft. Developed to a United States Army Air Corps requirement, the P-38 had distinctive twin booms with forward-mounted engines and a single, central nacelle containing the pilot and armament. The aircraft was used in a number of different roles, including dive bombing, level bombing, ground strafing, photo reconnaissance missions,[3] and extensively as a long-range escort fighter when equipped with droppable fuel tanks under its wings. The P-38 was used most extensively and successfully in the Pacific Theater of Operations and the China-Burma-India Theater of Operations, where it was flown by the American pilots with the highest number of aerial victories to this date. The Lightning called "Marge" was flown by the ace of aces Richard Bong who earned 40 victories. Second with 38 was Thomas McGuire in his aircraft called "Pudgy". In the South West Pacific theater, it was a primary fighter of United States Army Air Forces until the appearance of large numbers of P-51D Mustangs toward the end of the war. [4][5] 1 Design and development Lockheed YP-38 (1943) Lockheed designed the P-38 in response to a 1937 United States Army Air Corps request for a high- altitude interceptor aircraft, capable of 360 miles per hour at an altitude of 20,000 feet, (580 km/h at 6100 m).[6] The Bell P-39 Airacobra and the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk were also designed to meet the same requirements.

  • Dornier Do X Flugschiff (Flying Ship) As It Was Called, Was Conceived by Dr
    DDOORRNNIIEERR DDO XX ""FFLLYYIINNGG SSHHIIPP"" SPORT-SCALE ARF R/C MODEL AIRPLANE The Dornier Do X Flugschiff (flying ship) as it was called, was conceived by Dr. Claude Dornier in 1924, financed by the German Transport Ministry, and produced by the Dornier company of Germany in June of 1929. With its crew of 14, wingspan greater than 157 feet, 12 engines mounted above the wing on pylons in a push-pull configuration, and a maximum takeoff weight of 123,460 pounds, it was by far the largest heavier-than-air aircraft of its time. With a smoking room that had its own wet bar, a dining salon, and seating for 66 passengers – which could be converted to sleeping berths for night flights, its passenger accommodations approached the luxurious standards of transatlantic ocean liners. To introduce the Do X to the world, it took off on November 3, 1930 from Germany to visit the Netherlands, England, France, Spain and Portugal. It arrived at New York City on August 27, 1931, where thousands of sightseers visited the Glenn Curtiss Airport (now LaGuardia Airport) to tour this leviathan of the air. Although very popular with the public, numerous non-fatal accidents and other factors prevented more than three from ever being built. Two were broken up for scrap in 1937. The remaining Do X eventually became the centerpiece of Germany's aviation museum Deutsche Luftfahrt-Sammlung (German Aviation Collection) until it was destroyed during WWII by an RAF air raid the night of November 23, 1943. This RC Dornier is about 1/20 scale and took us almost 2 years to design.

  • Aces of the Luftwaffe
    Aces of the Luftwaffe Below are profiles of some of the Luftwaffe’s greatest pilots. Germany had the top 108 scoring aces of the Second World War, with scores ranging from 352 to 99 kills (for the top 108). The term ace can mean different things for different countries. Wikipedia puts it as this: “In World War II, many air forces credited fractional shares of aerial victories, resulting in fractions or decimal scores, such as 11½ or 26.83. Some U.S. commands also credited aircraft destroyed on the ground as equal to aerial victories. The Soviets distinguished between solo and group kills, as did the Japanese, though the IJN stopped crediting individual victories in 1943. The Luftwaffe continued the tradition of "one pilot, one kill", and now referred to top scorers as experten.” So German pilots got a kill for every aircraft they shot down. Name: Erich Hartmann Life: April 19, 1922 – September 20, 1993 Kills: 352 Notes: Erich Hartmann is the top scoring ace of all time, of any country. His 352 kills are 51 more than that of his closest rival, Gerhard Barkhorn. 345 of his kills were against the Soviets, as he fought mainly on the Ostfront (Eastern Front), and 260 of these were fighters. He also won the Ritterkreuz mit Eichenlaub, Schwerten und Brillianten (Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds), the second highest award in the German forces. He was imprisoned by the Soviets for 10 and a half years, and once released, went to West Germany and was put in charge of the post war JG 71 “Richtofen”, and retired in 1970.
