"Miloch" wrote in message ... Hence, the Polikarpov designers warning to the test pilots: "This is Russia...you do not do the Polikarpov I-16...the Polikarpov I-16 does YOU." The "flying barrel" seems to have been inspired by the Gee Bee racers. There was a saying in Russian, "If you can fly the I-16, you can fly anything." Looks like they palmed a few off to the Chinese and let them worry about it. * |
