Sometimes it can be a bit disorienting flying over Earth. Spot the cyclone?
Concrètement en volant à 28 000 km/h, voilà ce qui défile sous nos yeux depuis la Cupola…! Vous avez repéré le cyclone ?

The Cyclone Windbreaker Super-Deluxe edition features a state of the art V6 engine, with fine-tuned hover pads! This sweet ride will be available, but not for long. Get it before it vanishes!
Also, happy Thanksgiving guys <3

the cyclone is a VTOL craft series designed to support the LDM mechs. its twin electromag turbines can bring it to great speeds as well has lifting high tonnage loads, allowing the cyclone to move quickly in and out of combat while carrying equipment, parts, guns, or even the mechs themselves.
the rear of the cyclone has four mag-clamps for carrying cargo and two winches to left larger parts or hook into the LDMs
it's armament however is light, only carrying two pods of 5 missile mounts on the front there are 2 high yield rockets,1 machine gun and four 90mm cannons
NOTES: this design pretty much originated from the propeller blades, I had wanted to make something like the vtols in avengers with them but it ended up looking more like a pelican from halo, it can hold it self up and doesn't need the stand, but it helps to have it off the ground for the visual effect
Here's an interesting motorcycle picture I found in a 1947 magazine. It depicts Sgt. Parker Abbott on a single cilinder overhead cam Cyclone motorcycle which he used pre 1921 on half mile tracks in the US. Thusfar I only knew of Cyclone twin bikes, Steve McQueen owned one which was sold at auction a couple of years back for an astounding 850k $.

Just a small tweak to the Cyclone: I rebuilt its taillights. The previous version used transparent red lightsaber beams friction-fitted with rubber pieces, which had some issues. It was a bit unstable, the transparent red didn't stand out enough, and the lights were too close together. I fixed all of that!
The last of the series, at least for now. Messing around with tenders, and Nibelung is getting a buildpaint but idk if I'll have time/money to do the others.

This shot was taken at Lakeside Amusement park, just west of Denver, CO, right after sunset. I composed this shot, wanting to ensure I had both "cyclone" and "coaster" properly framed. I loved the complement of the red and yellow lighting, with the dark blue of the evening sky.
This was taken on my iPhone 5s using the native camera. I then used Lightroom Mobile to adjust the exposure, highlights, shadows, and clarity. I also used a technique, in LR Mobile, to apply a custom preset to achieve a slight matte effect.

iss050e066032 (03/27/2017) --- Cyclone Debbie over Australia as seen by members of Expedition 50 aboard the International Space Station on Mar 27, 2017. After devastating Australia over the last days of March the massive category four cyclone lashed New Zealand closing motorways and causing a major landslip. The storm hit parts of New Zealand still recovering from a devastating earthquake four months ago.

. . I've just been informed that the weather we had over the weekend was part of the same system of the cyclone, Nargis, that hit Myanmar (Burma) killing over 10,000 (as currently reported).
My heart bleeds for this country.
It is highly impoverished, for decades it has been under a brutal military regime, it suffered in the Asian tsunami and the death-toll has still not been accurately revealed, last year the military cracked down heavily on peaceful protesters and monks, and now this!
"And we shall overcome . . ." Lyndon B Johnson, to Congress, 1965. Let's hope the Burmese people will, too.
The Cyclone on Coney Island is arguably the most famous roller coaster in America. Built in 1927 this open car coaster still puts the fear in it's riders as the G forces mount throughout it's twisted track. A few of us rode this on it's last seasonal day for 2009 and I can safely say once was enough for me,.....:-)

Todays painting is of a powerful force of nature you should hope you never see and its of a cyclone hitting land ,Cyclones create several dangers for people living around tropical areas. The most destructive force of a cyclone comes from the fierce winds. These winds are strong enough to easily topple fences, sheds, trees, power poles and caravans, while hurling helpless people through the air. Many people are killed when the cyclone's winds cause buildings to collapse and houses to completely blow away.
A cyclone typically churns up the sea, causing giant waves and surges of water known as storm surges. The water of a storm surge rushes inland with deadly power, flooding low-lying coastal areas. The rains from cyclones are also heavy enough to cause serious flooding, especially along river areas. The 1970 Bhola cyclone is the deadliest tropical cyclone on record, killing more than 300,000 people and potentially as many as 1 million after striking the densely populated Ganges Delta region of Bangladesh on 13 November 1970. Its powerful storm surge was responsible for the high death toll.

The storm that swept across the center of the United States on October 26 and October 27, 2010, was memorable to those who experienced it because of its strong winds, rain, hail, and widespread tornadoes. Meteorologists get excited about the storm because it set a record for the lowest pressure (not associated with a hurricane) measured over land in the continental United States. At 5:13 p.m. CDT, the weather station in Bigfork, Minnesota recorded 955.2 millibars (28.21 inches of pressure). Pressure is one indicator of a storm’s strength, and this measurement corresponds to the pressure seen in a Category 3 hurricane.
This image, taken by the GOES satellite on October 26, shows the storm system circling around the area of extreme low pressure. Such extratropical cyclones form over the United States in the spring and fall, when the temperature difference from north to south is large. Warm, high-pressure air rushes toward the cooler, low-pressure air in the north. Because the Earth is rotating, the air moving in ends up circling the area of low pressure, creating the cyclone shown in the image. The intensity of the storm is determined by the pressure difference between the center and the outer edges. Extreme low pressure in the center of the storm, therefore, is an indicator that the storm was very intense.
The animation shows the storm developing starting late on October 25 and running through October 27. The cyclone formed very quickly on October 26, taking a distinctive comma shape as the day went on. The storm developed so quickly, in fact, that it is classified as a bomb, an extremely fast developing storm (dropping at least one millibar of pressure per hour for 24 hours), more common over water than land.
The storm was also huge. Though the area of low pressure is centered over the Upper Midwest, the storm reached from the Gulf of Mexico into Canada, and from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean.
Extratropical cyclones bring an array of unsettled weather, including strong wind, rain, hail, and tornadoes, and this cyclone brought all of that. On October 26–27, winds gusted up to 78 miles per hour in Michigan, with high winds throughout the Midwest. The National Weather Service reported 61 tornadoes over the two days. Heavy snow also fell in the north.

I wanted to build something for you muscle car fanatics out there so here's my take on a 1967 Mercury Cyclone! I had alot of fun designing and building this one and I hope y'all do too!
Cyclone rollercoaster (ca. 1927) in Coney Island, Brooklyn, NYC.
Legend has it that in the 1940's a rural miner who had lost the ability to speak for several years, came to visit Coney Island. He screamed on the way down the Cyclone's first drop, and muttered "I feel sick" as the car returned to the station. Then he promptly passed out when he realized he had just spoken.
A mother with her child sits amid the remains of her home in the cyclone affected area of Anwara upazila, in Chittagong. The 1991 cyclone was one of the deadliest tropical cyclones on record that struck Bangladesh in the southeastern district of Chittagong on the night of 29th April with winds around 250 kilometers per hour. There was a 6-meter storm surge over a wide area, killing at least 138, 000 people and leaving as many as 10 million homeless. Chittagong, Bangladesh. 1991.
