Annitevka help me out with a little light enjone work today. Like, really light. All we know how to do is check and fill fluids.
fire department responded 6 trucks, 2 battalion commanders and an ambulance to a fire at the Mayflower Manor Apartments in downtown Akron ohio.
cause of fire is rumored to be relate and confined to the buildings air conditioner thus spreading smoke around the hallways
first units arrived at around 10am. residents were allowed to return an hour later,
events like this does not necessarily mean the entire building evacuates, so there were not that many residents outside

The Rolls-Royce Pegasus, formerly the Bristol Siddeley Pegasus, is a British turbofan engine originally designed by Bristol Siddeley and was manufactured by Rolls-Royce Limited. The engine is not only able to power a jet aircraft forward, but also to direct thrust downwards via swivelling nozzles. Lightly loaded aircraft equipped with this engine can manoeuvre like a Helicopter. In particular, they can perform vertical takeoffs and landings. In U.S service, the engine is designated F402.
The unique Pegasus engine powers all versions of the Harrier family of Multi-Role Military Aircraft. Rolls-Royce licensed Pratt & Whitney to build the Pegasus for U.S built versions. However Pratt & Whitney never completed any engines, with all new build being manufactured by Rolls-Royce in Bristol, England. The Pegasus was also the planned engine for a number of aircraft projects, among which were the prototypes of the German Dornier Do 31 VSTOL Military Transport project.
Michel Wibault, the French aircraft designer, had the idea to use vectored thrust for Vertical Take-Off Aircraft. This thrust would come from four centrifugal blowers shaft driven by a Bristol Orion turboprop, the exhaust from each blower being vectored by rotating the blower scrolls. Although the idea of vectoring the thrust was quite novel, the engine proposed was considered to be far too heavy.
As a result, an engineer at Bristol Engine Company, Gordon Lewis, began in 1956 to study alternative engine concepts, using, where possible, existing engine components from the Orpheus and Olympus engine series. The work was overseen by the Technical Director Stanley Hooker. One concept which looked promising was the BE52, which initially used the Orpheus 3 as the engine core and, on a separate coaxial shaft, the first two stages of an Olympus 21 LP compressor, which acted as a fan, delivering compressed air to two thrust vectoring nozzles at the front of engine. At this point in the design exercise, the exhaust from the LP turbine discharged through a conventional rear nozzle. There were separate intakes for the fan and core compressor because the fan did not supercharge the core compressor. Although the BE.52 was a self-contained powerplant and lighter than Wibault's concept, the BE.52 was still complicated and heavy. As a result, work on the BE.53 concept started in February 1957. In the BE.53 the Olympus stages were fitted close to the Orpheus stages, thus simplifying the inlet ducting. The Olympus stages now supercharged the Orpheus core, improving the overall pressure ratio, creating what is now considered a conventional turbofan configuration.
For a year Bristol designed the engine in isolation, with little feedback from the various airframe manufacturers furnished with data. However, in May 1957 the team received a supportive letter from Sydney Camm of Hawker Aviation stating they were looking for a Hawker Hunter replacement. The aircraft designer, Ralph Hooper, suggested having the four thrust vectoring nozzles (originally suggested by Lewis) with hot gases from the rear two. Further joint discussions helped to refine the engine design.
The 1957 Defence White Paper, which focused on Missiles, and not Manned Aircraft (which were declared 'obsolete') was not good news, because it precluded any future government financial support for development of not already extant manned Combat Aircraft. This prevented any official financial support for the engine or aircraft from the Ministry of Defence. Fortunately, engine development was financially supported to the tune of 75% from the Mutual Weapons Development Program, Verdon Smith of Bristol Siddeley Engines Limited (BSEL) which Bristol Engines had by then become on its merger with Armstrong Siddeley, quickly agreeing to pay the remainder.
The first prototype engine (one of two BE53/2's built) ran on 2nd September 1959 and featured a 2-stage fan and used the Orpheus 6 core. Although the fan was overhung, inlet guide vanes were still incorporated. The HP spool comprised a 7-stage compressor driven by a single stage turbine. A 2-stage LP turbine drove the fan. There was no plenum at fan exit, but 4 thrust vectoring nozzles were fitted. Further development of the engine then proceeded in tandem with the aircraft, the Hawker P.1127. The aircraft first flew (tethered hover) on 21st October 1960, powered by the BE53/3 (Pegasus 2). Free hover was achieved on 19th November of the same year. Transition to wing-borne flight occurred in 1961. Later versions of the P.1127 were fitted with the Pegasus 3 and eventually the Pegasus 5. The Pegasus 5 was also used in the Kestrel, a refinement of the P.1127, of which nine were built for a Tripartite evaluation exercise. The Kestrel was subsequently developed into the Harrier Combat Aircraft. By the time the Pegasus 5/2 was built, both the fan and HP compressor had been zero-staged and 2nd stage added to the HP turbine.

This was the 1.6 engine after cleaning and the washer bottle cap was bought and fitted. This engine has obvious differances when compared to other Micra K12 engines.

Waltek fire engine at the Toronto City Centre Airport, seen at the Doors Open Toronto exhibit in May, 2002 (I think). Taken with the old Canon EOS Rebel G & Canon EF 28-80mm f/3.5-5.6 lens, scanned with an Epson V500 @1600 DPI.
A couple minutes of elbow grease and the engine is looking semi-respectable.
It is a 200cid inline six engine that made 115hp @ 3800rpm and 190 ft-lbs @ 2200 rpm when new.
Look at that engine accessibility!

Completed in 1928, the two Worthing Simpson triple expansion engines pumped 19 million gallons of water a day each, to a head of 200 feet.
The Kempton Park water treatment works were opened in 1897 with two holding reservoirs and 12 slow sand filter beds. Two Lilleshall triple expansion engines were used to pump water from the Thames to the reservoirs and three more to pump it to Cricklewood in North London. Steam came from 6 Lancashire boilers.
In 1902 the New River Company was acquired by the Metropolitan Water Board and the size of the site increased. By 1963 the site employed 144 men (most to polish the metal work, it would seem) and pumped 86 million gallons per day.
The Lilleshall engines where scrapped in 1968 but the Worthington Simpson Triples stayed in use until 1980. Electric pumps now run in the Lilleshall House and pump 75 million gallons a day with just 14 staff.
Description Triumph 6T Thunderbird
Registration ECP 386
Year 1954
Colour Polychromatic Blue
Engine size 650 cc
Chassis No. 51931
Engine No. 6T 51931
Between the resumption of production after the Second World War and the ultimate closure of the factory in 1980, Triumph produced in excess of 500,000 parallel twin motorcycles.
Launched in 1949, Triumph's Edward Turner-designed 6T was a trend setter from the off. An enlargement of the existing 500cc 5T machine, it produced 34bhp at 6,300rpm giving it an impressive turn of speed. Thunderbird was an inspirational choice of name reflecting the performance and nature of the beast for the new owner to savour and enjoy.
The success of the 6T is reflected in the length of its production run which started with the rigid machine and finished still with the same pre-unit design, albeit now in a sprung frame, until it was finally replaced with the new unit construction model in 1962.
Information in the file of this 6T shows it to have been supplied new on 8th April 1954 to Cable Motor Co of Halifax, Yorkshire. It was Polychromatic Blue and supplied with a sprung hub rear wheel and sidecar gears. The original buff RF60 logbook shows it was not in the showroom long, being registered two days later on 10th April 1954 with a sidecar fitted.
A matching engine numbers machine still in its original colours (although the V5C erroneously records it as black), its last MOT dates from 1998 when it was acquired by the Stondon Museum for display. Appearing to be all present and correct it should require little more than light recommissioning before it can be put to use again. The registration number ECP 386 is the original Yorkshire issue when first registered.
