As long as the Wright brothers preferred their planes to be shown in newspapers with a propeller underneath and kept all the alleged 1903-1905 pictures for themselves and only after Aug. 8, 1908 started to show them, those hundreds of photos have little historical value.
You have mentioned this before Simplex...I have never seen a picture of a Wright aircraft with a propeller underneath - please do post one !
I have questioned this before -
How would you design a prop drive system using chains...one chain to the pusher prop,and then another chain with a 90 degree change of direction to underneath the aircraft ?
Also how would that underside prop be swung by hand to start the engine ?
And finally with this large prop under the aircraft - how would you mount it on a launching rail ?
Simple basic engineering questions Simplex - so please answer in a logical engineerinf fashion !
