Introduced by Germany in 1918 as a ground-attack plane, it also showed potential as fighter.

 

Powered by a Mercedes D-3, 160 HP 6-cylinder in line engine, it had a top speed of 112 mph (180 km/h), and a range of 300 miles (480 km).

The RSAF Black Knight pilots are not full-time performers and continue to hold operational appointments, nonetheless, their tight-formation flying and precise aerial manoeuvres are comparable to those of professional full-time aerobatics team.

Replacing our vintage Avro Lancaster, which occupied this spot for more than 40 years and taken off her pedestal for restoration; these two full scale, replica WW2 fighters are on display at Jackson Park here in Windsor. A beautiful memorial for Windsor and Essex counties fallen soldiers. On the left, there is a Hawker Hurricane, and on the right, a Supermarine Spitfire.

I’m in the Air Force, worked with 22’s and every pilot I’ve talked to talks like this. Super knowledgable of their aircraft and very, very down to earth. I’ve heard stories of people meeting the super douche pilots, but I haven’t come across one yet. Definitely Type A personalities but really chill. Heavies pilots are like the introverts but still really fucking cool.

 

I support F-16’s now and gained a whole new respect for that. 22 will always have a special place in my heart bc they’re badass but 16’s aren’t even supposed to fly on paper. It’s all thrust that keeps that thing in the air. It’s wild. The wing span is insanely short.

I love fighters. I was supposed to get an incentive flight twice in a 16 but something came up so I got passed over. Sucks. Maybe one day.

Don't be fooled by the round engine cowling - if you stand in front of it what you see is a radiator, not finned cylinders. The engine is an in-line, although a variety of in-line and radial engines were used in various models of the Fw 190. This plane is so rare that it is one of the aircraft that is NOT flown, but is in flyable condition.

It's day 2 of my week long tribute to the men and women of our armed forces. Today's photo showcases a retired fighter plane enjoying her sun soaked days of rest and relaxation aboard the USS Midway, while the USS Ronald Reagan keeps a vigilant eye on the horizon.
