Something vertical, with more than one of these engines?
Re the small disc-sectors on the external ring at base of the exhaust, are these thrust trimmers? |
Morning safetypee, good call on LM's Bluebird :)!
Something vertical, with more than one of these engines BTW, I'm after the engine type and aircraft. |
Morning.
pehaps someone can enlighten us? Something vertical |
Something vertical,like a Shorts S.C.1 or Flying Bedstead, perhaps.?
|
Good morning gentlemen (and evening Graeme if you're lurking) :)
At work now, but will monitor as often as possible. Not a Helo LM, JEM60 is on the right track but it's not one of those two. |
Off we go then.
Bell Model 65 Air Test Vehicle? |
Sorry David, not the Bell 65 ATV
|
Another shot....German/Russian.
|
That narrows it down a lot mate, it is one of those two :E!!
|
Morning.
Thought VAK 191...but now Dornier Do 31? |
Evening Graeme.
"two vertically mounted engines" Maybe the engines are RKBM Rybinsk RRD-41 liftjets. |
Evening Graeme,
Yes mate, it is one of the six RR RB-162 lift engines in the Dornier DO-31 :D Noyade has Control :ok: |
Thanks Trevor. Concentrated on the VAK 191 and found a photo of it in a museum...and next to it was the Dornier. :)
OPEN HOUSE. |

Reheat – a very British term. Always required for Thrust, and often to get supersonic, but not necessarily to get airborne.
Or just a lost Phantom of my memory? |
I just love the way you answer things. :)
Imagine a Lightning with two Avons in burner, and you're only 21 years old. The thread is all yours. :ok: |
For the those lacking imagination - the 'Thrust SSC' supersonic car which used two RR Spey engines:
Thrust SSC | Flickr - Photo Sharing! Even with a vivid imagination, my record was only 195kts during takeoff with O/W jugs at a 6000ft alt airfield in Iran! You could ponder the ground speed at the time as well as what the squadron was doing in that part of the world. Open House – currently on ‘Atlantic’ time. |
