With the wheels removed by way of quick releases, the anhanger / stretcher carrier becomes a sled. If the road bed has compacted snow and ice on an incline, then it's a good idea to hold onto this anhanger as it will slide away otherwise.
The Breguet Type I tractor biplane in its original configuration flight. This picture was probably taken when the first flights were made. Initial flights were always flown in a straight line at a low height. The photographer was probably lying on the ground to make this rather stunning picture. All these precautions precluded that there were few casulaties in the case of a crash, mostly the machine was damaged.
Mark this is the original configuration of the Type I which was somewhat later extensively modified.
The beam rifle has been remade into a more solid design. As it is mentioned in an earlier picture, its first configuration has a handheld beam rifle for its primary armament, two shoulder-mounted rocket launchers, and two forearm-mounted beam sabers. This is a balanced and neutral setup that has no major advantages nor disadvantages.
The last few weeks the Taklift 7 from Smit Internationale has preformed several tasks around the Waalhaven. Now they have fitted him with the longboom option.
As you can see the main boom has been taken back a bit and the long boom has been placed in front of the main boom.
With his option it's a little over 120m high. There is another configuration which allows the Taklift 7 to reach up to 160 meters.
With this lonboom option it is still able to lift a maximum of 478tons at 120m!
Trying to figure out the best configuration. I might make a DIY insert to allow me to fit in a 13" MBP without scratching it.
HST Power Car W43029 brings an early WR set into Exeter St Davids station. It is notable that the leading TS is still one of the originals rather than the later TGS design with a guard's compartment.

The church dedicated to the Saviour's Configuration ("Metamorfosi tou Sotira") is built in the middle of "Palio Chorio" ("Old Village"). It was constructed in the 16th century (1520) and it has the same architectural style as the other two small churches of the village, that of "Panagia Theotokos" and that of Saint George "Perachoritis". Up until 1994, liturgies were conducted daily since it was considered as the village's main church.
It is a rectangular church of the Basilica style and with elements of the Byzantine style. It can accommodate up to 100-150 faithful. Externally it is made of stone and whitewashed.
The inhabitants built extensions to the church in 1880 and 1960 because the village was continuously growing. When they dug the floor they discovered many pieces of frescoes, which surely came from this church. Indeed, they were able to read the name of the hagiographer who was named Symeon Afxentis. He is known for his frescoes of the "Panagia Theotokos" and "Archangel" churches in the village of Galata.
The icon screen is woodcut, as also are the two Psalters that can be found in the church.
There are various remarkable representations dating back to the 16th and 17th century. The icon screen is of various different chronologies.

The settlement of Kakopetria, although mentioned by the mediaeval annalists, existed -at least- since the Frank domination era. The village's region was inhabited around the 6th - 7th century and the various excavations that have been conducted in 1938 around the old village of Kakopetria (in the Ailades venue) prove this.
During the excavations a dispenser of an ancient shrine -most probably belonging to the goddess Athena- came to light. A large number of movable findings were found, mainly terra-cotta, many of which depict the goddess Athena, as well as small, limestone, statues and parts of statues and bronze and iron shafts from spearheads and arrows. The findings most probably date back to the Archaic and Classic eras of Cyprus. Other statuettes represent Hercules and are an indication that he was also worshiped in the area along with the goddess Athena. These findings are found in the Archaeological Museum of Nicosia.
More from the Union Mills Adventure
Mill equipment removed during the restoration of the Mill to it's original configuration. This pile of technology is the result.
Had an opportunity to visit the inside of the Union Mill, part of the Union Mill's Homestead. www.unionmills.org This water powered mill was built in 1797, and still boasts it original French millstones. The mill was part of a milling, saw mill, tannery complex built by the Shriver family, and was in commercial operation until 1942, at which time it fell into disuse. Restoration of the site commenced in 1970. Although the mill has been restored to it's original configuration, and is fully operational. Further restoration and maintenance is ongoing. Here i attempted to capture the ambiance of the dark interior, and wooden mill workings.

The “F-Series” (F-model) are widely seen as the genuine models (master pattern) of all 911-types in summing up of the series from MY 1968 (introduced in the middle of 1967) “A-series” to MY 1973 (discontinued in the middle of 1973).
The identifying of an early successor, an European G-model MY 1974, could lead to the following mystic question: Why are impact bumpers fitted to some early “G-series” models only?
The new 911 G-Series was introduced in 1973. The US-Versions were all equipped with this new bumpers to conform with low speed protection requirements of US law from the very beginning. The integration of the new shock absorbing bumpers as standard of the European versions followed only one year later. In Germany the “G-Series” models since 1974 are called “Blasebalg”-models (German for “bellows”).

Dornier Do 335 A-0 Pfeil (Arrow)
Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, Udvar-Hazy Center, Chantilly, Va, October 29, 2009.
The Do-335 was one of a small group of aircraft marking the pinnacle of international piston-engined development. It was the fastest production piston-engined fighter ever built, attaining 846 kilometers per hour (474 mph) in level flight at a time when the official world speed record was 755 kph (469 mph). Powered by two 1800-hp engines in a unique low-drag configuration and weighing 9600 kg (21,000 lb) loaded, it was an exceptional heavy fighter. This very innovative design also featured an ejection seat, for pilot safety, and a jettisoning fin.
The unconventional layout of the Do-335 -- one engine "pulling" in the nose and another "pushing" in the tail - was patented by Claudius Dornier in 1937. The configuration provided the power of two engines, but with reduced drag and better maneuverability. The German Aviation Ministry (RLM) was interested in the design, but initially wanted Dornier only to produce bombers. By 1942, Dornier was still continuing design work and the war situation was worsening. The Luftwaffe now needed a multi-purpose fighter, and the prototype Do-335V-1 ("V" indicating "versuchs" or "experimental") flew in fighter form in September, 1943 - six years after its conception. Orders were immediately placed for 14 prototypes, 10 A-0 preproduction aircraft, 11 production A-1 single-seaters, and 3 A-10 and A-12 two-seat trainers.
The aircraft was quite large for a single-seat fighter, with a cruciform tail and a tricycle landing gear. The two massive liquid-cooled Daimler-Benz DB-603 engines were used in four different versions, each displacing 44.5 liters (2670 cu in) and weighing 910 kg (2006 lb). The engine produced 1750 hp from 12 cylinders in an inverted V layout using fuel injection and an 8.3:1 compression ratio. The rear three-bladed propeller and dorsal fin were jettisoned by explosive bolts in an emergency, to allow the pilot to bail out safely using a pneumatic ejection seat. The seat, inclined 13 degrees to the rear, was ejected with a force of 20 times gravity. The ventral fin could be jettisoned for a belly landing.
Unlike a normal twin-engined aircraft, with wing-mounted engines, loss of an engine on the Do-335 did not cause a handling problem. Even with one engine out, speed was a respectable 621 kph (348 mph). Because of its appearance, pilots dubbed it the "Ant eater" ("Ameisenbar"), although they described its performance as exceptional, particularly in acceleration and turning radius. The Do-335 was very docile in flight and had no dangerous spin characteristics. Many Do-335 prototypes were built, as the Reich strained desperately to provide day and night fighters and fast reconnaissance aircraft to the failing war effort. One of the many RLM production plans, issued in December 1943, called for the production of 310 Do-335s by late 1945. Initial production was at the Dornier Manuel plant, but this factory was bombed heavily in March-April, 1944, and the Do-335 tooling was destroyed.
Ten Do-335A-0 preproduction aircraft were then produced at Dornier's Oberpfaffenhofen plant in July-October 1944, by which time the Allied bombing campaign was delaying arrivals of engines, propellers, radios, and structural subcomponents. This had a serious effect, because the Do-335 was not a simple aircraft: installation of the electronics alone took 60 hours of assembly, and the electrical parts list was 112 pages long. Production of Daimler-Benz engines, for example, was switched to factories set up in underground salt mines and gypsum mines, but high humidity caused corrosion problems and production dropped 40 percent. Although several preproduction aircraft were issued to combat conversion units some 10 months before the war ended, no Do-335s actually entered combat. Deliveries began to the 1st Experimental Squadron of the Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe ( I/Versuchsverband Ob.d.L.) in late July 1944 for operational trials.
The first of the Do-335A-1 production version left the Dornier line at Friedrichshafen early in 1945, one of only four produced in 1945. It was armed with one 30 mm MK-103 cannon (70 rounds were carried) firing through the propeller hub and two 15 mm MG-151/15 cannon (200 rounds per gun) firing from the top of the forward engine. Even with the fighter situation as desperate as it was, these aircraft were still equipped to carry 500 kg (1100 lb) of bombs internally. Further operational testing, including use of air-to-ground guided missiles, began in Spring 1945 with Trials Unit (Erprobungskommando) 335.
The Do-335A-6 was to be a two-seat night fighter version with the advanced FFO FuG-217J Neptun radar having triple "trident"-like antennas (hence the name "Neptun") on the fuselage and wings, but only a prototype was completed. A total of 37 prototypes, 10 A-0s, 11 A-1s and 2 A-12 trainers were built, although nearly 85 additional aircraft were in assembly when U.S. troops overran the Friedrichshafen factory in late April, 1945. The Vienna-Swechat plant of the Ernst Heinkel AG was also scheduled to build the Do-335 beginning in February, 1945, but production never started.
The NASM aircraft is the second Do-335A-0, designated A-02, with construction number (werke nummer) 240102 and factory registration VG+PH. It was built at Dornier's Rechlin-Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany, plant on April 16, 1945. It was captured by Allied forces at the plant on April 22, 1945. After checkout, it was flown from a grass runway at Oberweisenfeld, near Munich, to Cherbourg, France. During this flight, the Do-335 easily outclimbed and outdistanced two escorting P-51s, beating them to Cherbourg by 45 minutes. Under the U.S. Army Air Force's "Project Sea Horse," two Do-335s were shipped to the United States aboard the Royal Navy ship HMS "Reaper" together with other captured German aircraft, for detailed evaluation. This aircraft was assigned to the U.S. Navy, which tested it at the Test and Evaluation Center, Patuxent River Naval Air Station, Maryland. The other aircraft, with registration FE-1012 (later T2-1012), went to the USAAF at Freeman Field, Indiana, where it was tested in early 1946. Its subsequent fate is unknown, and this is the only Do-335 known to exist.
Following Navy flight tests in 1945-48, the aircraft was donated to the Smithsonian's National Air Museum in 1961 but was stored at NAS Norfolk until 1974. It was then returned to Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany, where the Dornier company restored it to original condition in 1975. The return trip to Germany required an exemption under U.S. laws concerning the export of munitions. The Dornier craftsmen doing the restoration - many of whom had worked on the original aircraft -- were astonished to find that the explosive charges fitted to blow off the tail fin and rear propeller in an emergency were still in the aircraft and active, 30 years after their original installation! The Do-335 was put on static display at the May 1-9, 1976, Hannover Airshow, and then loaned to the Deutsches Museum in Munich, where it was on prominent display until returned to Silver Hill, MD, for storage in 1986.

INSTRUCTIONS AVAILABLE FOR P558 SUPERDUTY - MULTIPLE CONFIGURATIONS
On September 24, 2015, Ford unveiled the 2017 Ford Super Duty line at the 2015 State Fair of Texas. he frame is made from 95% high strength steel and the body (like the contemporary F-150) is made from 6000 series aluminum alloy. For the first time since 1999, both the Super Duty and F-150 lines are constructed using the same cab.
For 2017 production, the Super Duty line shares its powertrain lineup with its 2016 predecessor: a 6.2L gasoline V8, 6.8L V10 (F-450 and above), with a 6.7L diesel V8 available in all versions. The 6.2L gasoline V8 engine remains at 385 hp but torque rises from 405 lb-ft to 430 lb-ft. Additionally, the gasoline V8 produces its max torque at over 700 rpm less than the previous 405 lb-ft engine. The 6.7L diesel engine also remains at the same 440 hp (323 kW) but torque increases from 860 lb-ft upwards to 925 lb-ft.
The 2020 Super Duty debuted at the 2019 Chicago Auto Show. It features a revised grille and tailgate design, new wheel options, and higher-quality interior materials for the Limited trim. A new 7.3-liter gasoline engine is available. Nicknamed "Godzilla", it makes 430 horsepower and 475 lb-ft of torque.
Cab configurations continue to be 2-Door Regular Cab, 4-Door Super Cab, and 4-Door Super Crew Cab, with Short Box (6' 9") and Long Box (8') bed lengths. The truck will be available in F-250, F-350, and F-450 pickup truck models, and F-350, F-450, and F-550 chassis cab models. All will be available in both 4X2 and 4X4 configurations. The F-350 will be the only model available in either Single Rear Wheel (SRW) or Dual Rear Wheel (DRW) configurations, the F-450 and F-550 will only be available in a Dual Rear Wheel (DRW) configuration, and the F-250 will only be available in a Single Rear Wheel configuration.
Compound systems
There are many compound systems and configurations, but there are two basic types, according to how HP and LP piston strokes are phased and hence whether the HP exhaust is able to pass directly from HP to LP (Woolf compounds) or whether pressure fluctuation necessitates an intermediate "buffer" space in the form of a steam chest or pipe known as a receiver (receiver compounds).[4]
In a single-expansion (or 'simple') steam engine, the high-pressure steam enters the cylinder at boiler pressure through an inlet valve. The steam pressure forces the piston down the cylinder, until the valve shuts (e.g. after 25% of the piston's stroke). After the steam supply is cut off the trapped steam continues to expand, pushing the piston to the end of its stroke, where the exhaust valve opens and expels the partially depleted steam to the atmosphere, or to a condenser. This "cut-off" allows much more work to be extracted, since the expansion of the steam is doing additional work beyond that done by the steam at boiler pressure.[5]
An earlier cut-off increases the expansion ratio, which in principle allows more energy to be extracted and increases efficiency. Ideally, the steam would expand adiabatically, and the temperature would drop corresponding to the volume increase. However, in practice the material of the surrounding cylinder acts as a heat reservoir, cooling the steam in the earlier part of the expansion and heating it in the later part. These irreversible heat flows decrease the efficiency of the process, so that beyond a certain point, further increasing the expansion ratio would actually decrease efficiency, in addition to decreasing the mean effective pressure and thus the power of the engine.[5]
Robey and Co. was an engineering company based in Lincoln, England which can be traced back to at least 1849.[1]
In 1854 Watkinson and Robey Engineers and Millwrights were manufacturing Portable Engines and machinery of every description in Rumbold Street, Lincoln.[2] They were joined by George Lamb Scott, but in 1855 Watkinson, who had previously worked for Clayton & Shuttleworth of Lincoln, left the company. The business then became Robey and Scott and moved their premises by 1856 to Canwick Road, Lincoln.[3] Another partner, Thomas Gamble, joined the firm and Scott resigned in September 1856 to found his own manufacturing company in Manchester. The company then became Gamble & Robey, but by 1868 was known as Robey & Co Ltd.[4]
Robert Robey died in 1876 and the firm continued as a partnership led by John Richardson. In 1893 Robey & Co became a limited company.[5] By 1913 Robeys were makers of steam motor wagons, tractors and ploughs and in the First World War manufactured aircraft. The company was purchased by Babcock International in 1984.
NSF MSGI research associate Arthur Mills and his mentor Wu Zhang outside of the JOULE supercomputer at NETL in Morgantown, WV. Arthur is studying Description of 3D Configuration. This project develops mathematics description of objects. Equations, and Matlab code will be needed to construct image of object in 3D space. There are several such problems in NETL’s research challenge list. The researcher of this project will be asked to work on one or more of them based on their own interests and background. One group of problems comes from the need to supply 3D printer an algorithm and/code with which an object can be manufactured through 3D printing. One of the objects would be a screw, and the other would be a hollow circular tube with arms at three different locations with each orientated differently around the tube. The other group of problem is represented by the image of a long rod in a curved tube. This is a simulation of the bending status of drill string in directional well, as commonly occurred in drilling an oil and gas well. The validation of the mathematic description of the object is expected to be conducted by providing 3D imaging of the objects with a series of cross section images staking over one and another. If time allow, the objects will be made to perform certain motion. For example, the motion can be rotating the screw or moving the rod downward simulating the drilling progress.
I had collected sufficient anecdotal evidence that people approved of the new furniture configuration and that, as needed, they were making minor alterations as needed.
Thus I set my sights on the peripheral environment. I had been wanting to organize formally the organized chaos that was the random stacks of books on the shelves and the assorted posters on the common room walls. I was spurred to do this because the complaint that I had made about the common room's incoherent conditions on a postgraduate feedback form had been heard in fact by the administrators. When a staff member called me, I knew something could at length be done.
The problem with all the books on the shelves and the posters on the walls is that people have developed unspoken rules for why they are placed there; yet the consequences of their placement without regulation are obvious: while people can browse other people's refuse and find treasure in a pile of books that otherwise would be thrown out, this purpose is not explicitly stated: this tradition is passed on by word of mouth or by guesswork. In addition, since no other rules govern these piles, they grow to such heights that browsing the stacks become tedious: indeed, there comes a point at which a pile of loose books and articles grows to an unmanageable, unsearchable multitude. Looking at some of these items, dated from, even, a decade ago, their relevance has passed. They should no longer exist and should be thrown out. Unfortunately such a rule has not existed for their passing, yet.
This is where I, with the help of the research office, step in. I toured the premises with the administrator, pointing out this unbridled growth and concluding that the more these piles are able to grow unchecked, the less effective these piles become to users. She nodded and for the most part agreed with my assessment. She will follow up by asking the administration to perhaps develop rules for the timely disposal (and replenshiment) of the refuse literature. If possible, per my friend's suggestion, the next cycle of refuse books can be positioned upright for easier browsing by users.
While I was in a cleaning mood, I also asked the administrator to help me to clean up my office in 102 Hui Oi Chow. Like elsewhere in the building and on campus, this office serves an ancillary purpose in being a storage room for university, faculty, department and individual refuse. I pointed out to the administrator individuals' junk and university junk accumulating on shelves, by walls and in corners. The administrator promised to remove the excess equipment and furniture. I would do my part to clean up by asking people in the office to claim their excess belongings lest they be thrown out.

The Galley is the second of five possible internal configurations for Planetary Outpost. The main room has a table and the latest in digital virtual entertainment, while the smaller room houses the main food processing unit and storage areas.
FOOD is so large it barely fits in its allocated place, but then again, being able to replicate nutrients for the crew away from home for months, even years at a time, should be of greatest import to the success of any mission.
The Galley is also peppered with monitoring screens because no matter where they are, the crew of Planetary Outpost are never truly off duty.

When F-86Ds were upgraded to the F-86L configuration, an AN/ARR-39 datalink receiver was fitted, which had a blade-like antenna sticking out of the fuselage just forward of and below the starboard wing. The AN/ARC-27 command radio of the F-86D was replaced by an AN/ARC-34 set. An AN/APX-25 identification radar was added, and a new AN/ARN-31 glide slope receiver was provided.
All Follow-On aircraft were brought up to F-86D-45 standards before starting with the electronics upgrades, including the installation of the drag chute in the tail. In the F-86L, two protruding cooling air intakes were added to the fuselage sides just aft of the wing, replacing the older recessed cooling ducts. The same J47-GE-33 or J47-GE-17B engine of the F-86D was retained, but the F-86L was fitted with the F-86F-40 wing, with twelve-inch wingtip extensions and "6-3" leading edge extensions with slats. The wingspan and wing area were 39.1 feet and 313.37 square feet respectively. The new wing improved the handing ability and provided better turning at high altitudes. The reconditioned F-86Ls retained the armament of twenty-four rockets of the F-86D.
The first flight took place on December 27, 1955. That particular aircraft had just the SAGE equipment installed, and the first conversion incorporating all of the Follow-On changes did not fly until May of 1956. A total of 981 F-86Ds were modified to the F-86L configuration. After conversion in 1956-57, F-86Ls were issued to most of the ADC wings that were using the F-86D. First to receive the F-86L was the 317th FIS at McChord AFB, which first received the planes in late November of 1956. The service of the F-86L with the ADC was destined to be quite brief, since by the time the last F-86L conversion was delivered, the type was already being phased out in favor of the Convair F-102A and F-106A delta-winged interceptors. The last F-86Ls left ADC service by 1960.
It should be noted that F-86L aircraft were also assigned to the 196th FIS, which was an integral part of Air Defense Command. The 196th FIS was based at Ontario ANGB, and the successor unit is the Guard refueling unit currently based at March Field. (Source: Ray V. Miller).
During the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, six ANG F-86L squadrons were on alert. The last F-86Ls were withdrawn from ANG service during the summer of 1965.
-March Field Air Museum website (www.marchfield.org/)Nicknamed the "Flying Vacuum" because of its low slung jet intakes, the F-89 Scorpion would ingest any loose objects it crossed paths with on the runway. An attempt to place screens over the intakes failed when, at high altitudes, ice formed over the screens and caused the engines to flare out. Designed as an all weather ground attack fighter, the Scorpion was the first US interceptor armed with nuclear air-to-air missiles and the first aircraft to live fire an AIR-2 Genie nuclear air-to-air missile on 19 July 1957.
According to the Air Force Historical Research Agency (AFHRA/RSA), Maxwell AFB, AL, the museum's F-89J has the following history:
The aircraft at the March Field Museum is a J model, serial number 52-1949. It was manufactured by Northrop and delivered to the Air Force on 24 November 1954
In June, 1981, it was transported by truck to March AFB Museum. The nose radar equipment was removed and placed into a display case by former radar technician who was in the RAF during WWII. The display shows the many glass radio tubes in use at the time. This aircraft is on loan from the USAF.

INSTRUCTIONS AVAILABLE FOR P558 SUPERDUTY - MULTIPLE CONFIGURATIONS
On September 24, 2015, Ford unveiled the 2017 Ford Super Duty line at the 2015 State Fair of Texas. he frame is made from 95% high strength steel and the body (like the contemporary F-150) is made from 6000 series aluminum alloy. For the first time since 1999, both the Super Duty and F-150 lines are constructed using the same cab.
For 2017 production, the Super Duty line shares its powertrain lineup with its 2016 predecessor: a 6.2L gasoline V8, 6.8L V10 (F-450 and above), with a 6.7L diesel V8 available in all versions. The 6.2L gasoline V8 engine remains at 385 hp but torque rises from 405 lb-ft to 430 lb-ft. Additionally, the gasoline V8 produces its max torque at over 700 rpm less than the previous 405 lb-ft engine. The 6.7L diesel engine also remains at the same 440 hp (323 kW) but torque increases from 860 lb-ft upwards to 925 lb-ft.
The 2020 Super Duty debuted at the 2019 Chicago Auto Show. It features a revised grille and tailgate design, new wheel options, and higher-quality interior materials for the Limited trim. A new 7.3-liter gasoline engine is available. Nicknamed "Godzilla", it makes 430 horsepower and 475 lb-ft of torque.
Cab configurations continue to be 2-Door Regular Cab, 4-Door Super Cab, and 4-Door Super Crew Cab, with Short Box (6' 9") and Long Box (8') bed lengths. The truck will be available in F-250, F-350, and F-450 pickup truck models, and F-350, F-450, and F-550 chassis cab models. All will be available in both 4X2 and 4X4 configurations. The F-350 will be the only model available in either Single Rear Wheel (SRW) or Dual Rear Wheel (DRW) configurations, the F-450 and F-550 will only be available in a Dual Rear Wheel (DRW) configuration, and the F-250 will only be available in a Single Rear Wheel configuration.

So my ThinkTankPhoto Retrospective 30 arrived earlier today and I figured I'd try out some different packing configurations with it. This config could possibly work quite well as my general, all-purpose layout. I'm pretty lazy sometimes when it comes to swapping lenses so with this config I'm covered from 24-260mm (w/a small gap between 70-91mm) w/out having to swap. For low light I stash a 35mm in one of the front pockets.
I opted to expose the velcro on the same side as the 35mm just as an additional safety measure to prevent the lens from accidentally tumbling out. Not that I think it will (those front pockets are pretty deep) but just in case.
The bag comes with a raincover that was originally clipped into the front pocket that the 35mm is in. I moved the cover into the back interior pocket since I don't think I'll use that pocket for anything. Upon wearing the bag I discovered that this arrangement actually worked really well because the raincover functions as additional padding for the rear of the bag so that your gear isn't digging right into your body, especially w/a heavy load.

I'm trying to maximize open desktop space, so I placed the machinery in an arc across the corner surface which is very deep.
The configurations of the bow is based on the actual dimension data of the ship. There has been many disputes and debates in the modelling community concerning configurations and the terminology of the Queen's ships being 'race-built'.
Working with the HALF MOON Project some twenty years ago gave me the opportunity to weigh and balance Dutch and English ships in their physical appearance. As a result, I concluded that 'race-built' only meant that the English galleon was lighter at sea than its Spanish rivals. They were easy to manuever, like the Dutch ships, because they carried lighter guns and a lower forecastle. The hulls were still tub-like... and there's no getting around those facts.
The Ford Model A finally replaced the aged Model T on December 2, 1927. Available in a variety of configurations, trims and colours, the 'A' finally caught up to the variety of choice available from competitors, in particular, General Motors.
Shown here in the sporty Deluxe Coupe configuration. two doors, two seats inside, two passengers in the rumble seats out back and externally rear mounted spare.
This vehicle has been modelled using Lego Digital Designer. A more realistic look for the wheels can be made by stretching over a hollow 30.4 tyre over the fitted wheels. An attractive two-tone paintwork here, dark blue with black trim.
This car is modelled on the Model A owned by my wife's late grandfather Lloyd. A lovely car to ride around in, but a bit vulnerable with your head bobbing around in the breeze back in that rumble seat.
Each axis configuration for the Align power feeder is slightly different. This drawing might help explain the feeder-to-leadscrew interface concept since proper adjustment is required. The written instructions are terrible. The videos are not complete and the dialog is in Chinese.
It appears to me, based on the parts provided in each feeder kit, that Align intends for the brass pinion gear hob to be pinned in place to the shaft by drilling and pounding in the provided roll pins. I don't like that type of installation, and frankly it isn't required if proper care and attention is given to the compressed assembly as noted in the drawing above.
Hopefully this drawing along with the photos that follow for each axis will help anyone else attempting this installation. It took a good deal of head scratching for me to puzzle out the installation.
Originally planned as a mark 3 with four others it was taken from the production line incomplete to be converted to MK5 configuration. The MK5 was developed to accept the Alvis Leonoides Major 755 air cooled radial radial piston engine to overcome the serious lack of power of the American Pratt and Whitney engined earlier versions. At this time on the strength of Westland Aircraft Ltd experimental dept.
26-05-55 Trial installation of the Leonides Major Engine
XJ396, Sister prototype to XJ398 originally built as MK5's. Both looked identical.
1-06-55 Transferred to 'Rear Admiral Reserve Aircraft', a paper transfer to indicate that it would not enter FAA operational service
29-06-55 Taken off charge by R.N
27-02-56 Struck of charge by R.N
22-12-56 Transfered to Westlands charge.
4-05-57 First flight after being retained by westlands for HAR5 engine developement trials. In the interim the MK5 sub type was abandoned and the HAS7 became the next FAA mark. Around this time we beleive '398was trial fitted with an Armstrong Siddley AS181 turbo shaft engine which was Westlands first use of turbine power in helicopters.
1-08-59 When it was decided the AS181 power plant was not to go into production, conversion to the General Electric T58 power plant commenced and '398 remained with Westlands for further development to De-Haviland Gnome engine configuration

15-09-72 Transfer to RAE Bedford by air, rotary wing continuation training.
8-04-74 Transfer RNAS Culdrose - Trials of RFD/GQ "Aero Conical Canopy".
10-04-75 Sold out of service to Autair Ltd.
23-04-75 Registered as G-BDBZ to Autair Ltd, Luton (registered as WS55 series 2)
19-05-78 Moved by road to CSE/Oats Kidlington for GI duties.
25-08-99 Having cared for it for over 20 years XJ398 was donated to YHPG by Oxford Aviation College, Kidlington and moved by road. It is now based at Aeroventure Doncaster.
15-04-00 XJ398's engine started for the first time in preservation (we beleive the first MK10 to be started in a UK museum). Two further engine starts followed on 15/4 all thanks to pilot Derek Jones, Whirlwind pilot of long standing (RAF & Bristows Helicopters) who travelled to the event from Aberdeen.
It is highly appropriate that '398 is housed alongside XP345 which flew the last operational Whirlwind flight at Akrotiri in Cyprus in March 1982. The first and last of the breed will now see out their retirement under the same roof. if you have any further detail to add to the above we would be most pleased and interested to hear from you.

When F-86Ds were upgraded to the F-86L configuration, an AN/ARR-39 datalink receiver was fitted, which had a blade-like antenna sticking out of the fuselage just forward of and below the starboard wing. The AN/ARC-27 command radio of the F-86D was replaced by an AN/ARC-34 set. An AN/APX-25 identification radar was added, and a new AN/ARN-31 glide slope receiver was provided.
All Follow-On aircraft were brought up to F-86D-45 standards before starting with the electronics upgrades, including the installation of the drag chute in the tail. In the F-86L, two protruding cooling air intakes were added to the fuselage sides just aft of the wing, replacing the older recessed cooling ducts. The same J47-GE-33 or J47-GE-17B engine of the F-86D was retained, but the F-86L was fitted with the F-86F-40 wing, with twelve-inch wingtip extensions and "6-3" leading edge extensions with slats. The wingspan and wing area were 39.1 feet and 313.37 square feet respectively. The new wing improved the handing ability and provided better turning at high altitudes. The reconditioned F-86Ls retained the armament of twenty-four rockets of the F-86D.
The first flight took place on December 27, 1955. That particular aircraft had just the SAGE equipment installed, and the first conversion incorporating all of the Follow-On changes did not fly until May of 1956. A total of 981 F-86Ds were modified to the F-86L configuration. After conversion in 1956-57, F-86Ls were issued to most of the ADC wings that were using the F-86D. First to receive the F-86L was the 317th FIS at McChord AFB, which first received the planes in late November of 1956. The service of the F-86L with the ADC was destined to be quite brief, since by the time the last F-86L conversion was delivered, the type was already being phased out in favor of the Convair F-102A and F-106A delta-winged interceptors. The last F-86Ls left ADC service by 1960.
It should be noted that F-86L aircraft were also assigned to the 196th FIS, which was an integral part of Air Defense Command. The 196th FIS was based at Ontario ANGB, and the successor unit is the Guard refueling unit currently based at March Field. (Source: Ray V. Miller).
During the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, six ANG F-86L squadrons were on alert. The last F-86Ls were withdrawn from ANG service during the summer of 1965.
-March Field Air Museum website (www.marchfield.org/)Nicknamed the "Flying Vacuum" because of its low slung jet intakes, the F-89 Scorpion would ingest any loose objects it crossed paths with on the runway. An attempt to place screens over the intakes failed when, at high altitudes, ice formed over the screens and caused the engines to flare out. Designed as an all weather ground attack fighter, the Scorpion was the first US interceptor armed with nuclear air-to-air missiles and the first aircraft to live fire an AIR-2 Genie nuclear air-to-air missile on 19 July 1957.
According to the Air Force Historical Research Agency (AFHRA/RSA), Maxwell AFB, AL, the museum's F-89J has the following history:
