|
Sorry kitbag not a Jumo 004 from Me 262.
Mel |
G'day Mel. Russian?
|
Hate to ask Mel, but is that the mouth or the bum end?
|
Hi Graeme.
It is not Russian and as you put it so delicately it is the "bum end". Mel |
Mel,
Are those engines pod mounted under the wing or rear fuselage? |
Hi David the engine is in the fuselage.
|
|
Not Butterfly tail Graeme. The tailplanes were more horizontal than your sketch.
|
The small circular exhaust between the cones might well be an oil fume exhaust, which indicates an early pure turbojet, possibly utilising a total loss oil system.
|
You may well be correct David as this aircraft was an early example of an aircraft powered by jet propulsion.
|
Hi Mel,
Is it the Caproni-Campini CC-2 N.1 ?? Open House please if correct, as I'm busy this afternoon. |
You are of course correct Trevor. :ok:
The Caproni Campini N1 http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c6...oni_foto-1.jpg As designed by Campini, the aircraft did not have a jet engine in the sense that we know them today. Rather, a conventional 700 kW (940 hp) Isotta Fraschini L. 121/R.C. 40 piston engine was used to drive a compressor, which forced air into a combustion chamber where it was mixed with fuel and ignited. The exhaust produced by this combustion was to drive the aircraft forward. Campini called this configuration a "thermojet," but the term "motorjet" is in common usage today for this arrangement since thermojet is now used to refer to a particular type of pulsejet (an unrelated form of jet engine). It has also been described as a ducted fan. |
|
Is it the Japanese flying bomb, the Ohka?
Open house if correct. cheers, Jake. |
