Winter Flying, pt 3 - Lighting Ski.jpg (1/1)
"Art Woodbury" wrote in message .. . In article , says... begin 644 Lighting Ski.jpg I posted recently on this subject. Does anyone know why Lightnings had the contra-rotating props on the "wrong" sides? P-factor and torque from the outward-turning props make both sides critical in an engine-out situation. Kelly Johnson didn't make mistakes like this. Is there an explanation? Art W. To balence out the torque generated by the two engines.
