Don't all exhausts do that, or should I quit my job and do something else.

Unless it's a compressor bleed dump exhaust.

Now don't you go all "university" on me.

How does "engine compressor section bleed air sound"?

Happy?

I'm beginning to think I'll quit anyway mid-April. Three pensions and no mortgage......

Now, my Sunday is nearly done and yours is just starting, so do you want some seriously good clues?

Up to you mate, but I would appreciate it.

Sorry, but I have been allocating most of my time to your SC challenge.

Not a problem. Just hate leaving these things running while I head to bed.

One on each wing-tip.
They "provided fine yaw and pitch control moments during hover".

I'm not done yet. You were kind enough to expand on your Kamov photo. So...



X-Plane.

Yeah, I know, I know, you don't like "plane." Get over it.

Is it another helicopter, anything like this one?



Edit; Mcdonnell model 38? Open house if on the very slim chance that is correct.

Karlark, like that one, hadn't seen it before. Interesting to see that the issues that killed off the Model 38 (XH20) were the same as those with the Fairey Rotodyne nearly 20 years later.
Who says we can learn from history?
