This was covered when the aircraft was first discovered earlier this year.
The aircraft was flying alone on a ferry flight to a repair depot to fix it's landing gear, which were stuck in the down position. It was seen to fly off course and was never heard from or seen again till this year. The aircraft has since been looted and vandalized by local Arabs and is probably now a total loss.

Japaneze Kamikaze - color footage
Hi all,
Here is one the best story telling on the subject I have seen so far. Color footage, complete description of the events and mention of the sociological roots and background that led the Japan toward this extreme measure. The only thing that I can think against it is the fact that they seemed to have choose deliberately to put aside the atrocities committed by the JA that marked a trend toward the disrespect of human life among their Generals as a way to speed up their career. Anyway, fantastic footage and a very mature comment. You can see color archive of a flight of Betty carying Aka being intercepted by F6 Hellcat !! part 1 : Part 2: Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=yxss-MGLDPk Part 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=P6ClLyVHF6g Enjoy ! ~S PS: To all that keep posting their encouragements or simply thanks, please be sure that I do appreciate your encouragement even if I do not reply Last edited by TomcatViP; 08-25-2012 at 07:25 PM. |

Here is a new one, slightly different from all the others. The story tells us the fascinating project of the Daedalus flight in 1988, a recreation of the legendary flight across the Aegean see by man powered flight. You can find inside good stuff about lifting theory, easily explained and the importance of modern computer sciences (Computational Fluid Dynamics - CFD) in the quest for the most efficient design.

An aircraft is a vehicle that is able to fly by gaining support from the air, or, in general, the atmosphere of a planet. It counters the force of gravity by using either static lift or by using the dynamic lift of an airfoil, or in a few cases the downward thrust from jet engines.
Although rockets and missiles also travel through the atmosphere, most are not considered aircraft because they do not have wings and rely on rocket thrust as the primary means of lift. The human activity that surrounds aircraft is called aviation. Crewed aircraft are flown by an onboard pilot, but unmanned aerial vehicles may be remotely controlled or self-controlled by onboard computers. Aircraft may be classified by different criteria, such as lift type, propulsion, usage, and others. |

Hi all,
here is a new video about the how to fly and fight in the P-39. I selected this one as there is a good share of info about tight turning an airplane, fly in formation, stall, spin, rudder use during acrobatic flight, firing pass etc... Enjoy ! Part 1: Part 2: ~S |
