Kellett XR-10 1947 When it made its first nights in April 1947 this helicopter was the largest and most powerful designed for the United States Air Force at that time. Like the XR-8, it was of the "synchropter" type with contra-rotating and intermeshing rotors. The rotors were driven by two engines mounted on nacelles on either side of the fuselage so as to leave the cargo space unobstructed, and cooling was by the flow of air induced through the nacelles. Rotor head linkage allowed the blades to pivot in the horizontal and vertical planes. In the horizontal plane, blade movements were damped by vibration dampers; the position of the blades was a function of the centrifugal force and the loading conditions, but there were, of course, stops to limit these movements. The rotors were synchronized through a cross drive between the upper transmissions. One special feature of this XH-10 was its ability to fly on one engine with normal gross weight at altitudes of up to 1400 metres.

This is the color version of the current aircraft patch for the 23rd Fighter Squadron stationed in Germany, Spangdahlem AFB. This depicts their mission and their "Block" of Vipers.

Hunting Percival P.91 1954 - project A model of the proposed 2-seat P.91 helicopter. This tip-powered machine may have been designed in 1954 to the Specification H.144T. Fairey Aviation Ltd built their Ultra-Light helicopter, but no production contract was ever placed.

Ciao Gianpaolo, benvenuto fra noi, fa piacere sapere che l'argomento ti interessa!

Quoto, inoltre se vi ricordate, quando capitò ad un nostro pilota di AMX il problema del rifornimento in volo(INCIDENTE AD UN AMX IN FASE DI RIFORNIMENTO), venne quasi lapidato dai commenti ingrati di chi magari non è salito nemmeno sulle montagne russe, non sapendo che nella reltà il problema stà sempre dietro l'angolo Air-to-air refuelling - when things go wrong

Bene bene bene, finalmente abbiamo trovato qualcosa di utile, per i prossimi aerei ho delle foto (Da ritrovare) di Ghedi e di Gioia del Colle!

Per caso ti riferisci a questo Puma taroccato tratto dal film Rambo 3???

Già Postato! Seibel S-3 1947 Each of the two blades was attached to the rotor hub by means of a metal sheet bent so as to form an angle. Movements of this 'blade attaching angle', which could (as it were) be twisted, controlled pitch changes. There was thus no need for bearings, hinges, dampers, etc. In addition, as stated above, lateral and longitudinal control were effected by changing the centre of gravity. By using a stick attached at its lower end to a swivel fitting to the fuselage structure, the pilot could displace his cabin, which was mounted on links, forwards, backwards or to either side. This helicopter made its maiden flight on 20th September 1947.
