The Mercedes-Benz Actros is a heavy-duty truck introduced by Mercedes-Benz at the 1996 Commercial Vehicle IAA in Hannover, Germany, as the replacement for the SK. It is normally used for long-distance haulage, heavy-duty distribution haulage, and construction haulage. It is powered by an inline-6 diesel engine with a turbocharger and intercooler. In 2002, Daimler Trucks/Lorries launched version II of the Actros and in 2007, launched the version III. The fourth generation of the Actros, officially named "the New Actros", was launched in July 2011

What a beautiful piece of machinery! All motorbike enthusiasts will recognise this as twin cylinder 998cc Vincent engine, probably dating from around the late 1940s. I spotted the bike in Looe, but it had a couple of seriously ugly metal pannier boxes on the back, so I decided not to photograph the whole of it. I suspect it could be a B series Rapide, dating from 1946 onwards. The HRD name was apparently dropped in 1950 to avoid confusion with the American Harley Davidson (HD).

Avro Shackleton MR.3 WR982 at the Gatwick Aviation Museum Charlwood Surrey, occasional engine runs are performed. A former crew member gave an excellent insight to operations with the type during the cold war. Entering service in March 1958 I last came across this aircraft at RAF Cosford in 1982 when I photographed it outside due to a hangar reshuffle, it was then employed as a instructional airframe (8106M) from 1970 (when flown in) to 1988 after sale to this museum

I was messing around trying to build an engine to go into a new MOC for this months LUGNuts challenge, and I decided to pull out all my MOC engines to have a look at them together. All in all they're pretty much similar, yet all done differently. I sure like that jet blade piece! None of them are based on anything real, some of them have their exhaust pipes removed, and two of them haven't been used yet.
