Fiber alignment and twist. by
[email protected]
Howdy,
If I have a long recatangular box like a spar, and want to reduce
twisting in the long axis, is it better to lay out the fiberglass mat
with the fibers aligned at a 45 to the length, or parallel to the
length?
For the sake of argument, presume that all I'm concerned about is
twist.

Thoughts on GDI in aircraft engines. by
[email protected]
Howdy,
Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) has been integrated into quite a few
automotive engines over the past few years. After reading an article

persons...

Does anyone have a dimensioned sketch of the Ford model A engine?
Or a sketch and a reference dimension?
The 1932 Flying and glider manual for EAA does have the engine mount

I was channel surfing the other day, and caught a glimpse of how they
make rotor blades for the Hind MI-8 helicopter on RT. (Russian News)
Very Interesting. They use small sections of metal (aluminum?)
honeycomb cut to the shape of the airfoil, align it them with the spar
on the leading and...

Any cool new amphibs at OSH? by
GuppyPilot[_2_]
Missed OSH this year due to work. Shearwater aircraft claims to be there
with a mockup or prototype. Anybody seen it/taken any pics? I'm also

Thanks!

Group Activity by
Wayne Paul
I have been off this group for over a year. Previously this was a very
active group; however, there has been very few messages since I returned.
It may be due to my service provider, or maybe with the passing of a few key
