i think that this quest has been dragged out long enough the aircraft is the Me P 1101 the very first jet with variable geometry wings and the inspiration, after the Yanks dragged the protoptype home for the Bell X-5 heaps more information at http://www.luft46.com/mess/mep1101.html best of wishes Davidh

MB-700 - During the late 1930s, the French Air Ministry began to consider the development of a fighter made from non-strategic materials i.e. wood, to safeguard from any possible steel shortage in the event of war. Bloch responded to the specification with their prototype, the MB-700. It was constructed completely from wood and had a stressed skin. The wing was of one piece with two spars, the fuel tank of 77 Imperial Gallon capacity, residing between the spars in the middle of the fuselage. The MB-700 was powered by a 14-cylinder Gnone Rhone radial engine of 700 hp. Despite the low power of its engine it had sparkling performance. It had a maximum speed of 550 km/h at 13,000 feet and an endurance of 2 hours. Planned armament for the machine was a pair of 20 mm cannons and a pair of 7.5 mm machine guns. The aircraft had only completed about a dozen flight test hours when the Germans occupied the Buc airfield in France. For some unfortunate reason the French did not ferry the aircraft to safety ahead of the advancing German column as once the Germans happened upon it, they promptly burnt it to the ground believing it to be a booby-trap.

couple of pics in the never ending story thread, nothing exciting 'cause A not a photographer & B camera shot its innards

guess how much moisture this kept out !!!

hidie nicht verloren geht. Hidey hat, nach Hause kommen von der Alberton pub mit den meisten seiner facilities intakt und dem meisten narrominded bindis auf steur und stern deplucked. Es ist nicht regnet in Yarram. Wir haben das Zelt upgeput , und Regen. 5mls so weit. Wir willen upgeputten zwei Zelte auf morgen und hoffen, für 10 mls regen Prost davidh

Left Narromine just after 7 Sat, patchy showers around West Wyalong, otherwise clear to Mangalore. A wasted stop at Narrandera 'cause the fuel bowser was empty and then our cards wouldn't work at Tocumal however John Williams cheerfully took cash in exchange for using his card (thanks for the tea and hospitality John). Took off from YMNG for direct YYRM. The air over the tops had so much crud in it that the mid level clouds would suddenly appear out of the glurk rapidly getting too close for comfort, so hung a right towards Wittelsea and followed the low level route home from there. Smooth sailing under the crud layer. Walking into the Alberton pub at 7 pm the fuel guy from Narrandera phoned to say that avgas was now available. cheers Davidh

Car For Sale (Runs Well)

After having their 11th child, an Irish couple decided that was enough,as they could not afford a larger bed. So the husband went to his doctor/veterinarian and told him that he and his wife/cousin didn’t want to have any more children. The doctor told him that there was a procedure called a vasectomy that could fix the problem but that it was expensive. A less costly alternative, said the doctor, was to go home, get a firecracker, light it, put it in a beer can, then hold the can up to his ear and count to 10. Paddy said to the doctor, “I may not be the smartest man in the world, but I don’t see how putting a firecracker in a beer can next to my ear is going to help me.†“Trust me,†said the doctor. So the man went home, lit a firecracker and put it in a beer can. He held the can up to his ear and began to count: “1″ “2″ “3″ “4″ “5″ at which point he paused, placed the beer can between his legs, and resumed counting on his other hand. This procedure also works in ....( insert favourite predjuce ).

The Moteurs Louis Renault Cie chose the 90 degree V8 as their preferred standard and improved on this basis with continual modifications and upgrading. Although the engines were unspectacular performers they were relaible. As one of the earliest mass producers of aero engines the Moteurs Louis Renault Cie products were copied by others. Most notable amongst the aero engines that used the Renault V8 as the basis was the Royal Aircraft Factory type 1A, better known as the RAF1A. Produced in 1913 it used larger cylinders than the Renault and with other modifications it produced 92hp at 1,600 rpm. The RAF1B, introduced in 1915, was a larger version again giving 115hp at 1,800 rpm. By the production of the RAF1E the engine was producing 150hp. The Renault V8 and the RAF V8 were produced in large numbers and used in a variety of aircraft during World War 1. quote

Surely the first true aircraft engine was the one that the Wright brs built especially for their flyer
