Masefield, M.A., A.F.R.Ae.S.\u003cbr\u003eTechnical Editor of THE AEROPLANE and Editor of THE AEROPLANE SPOTTER.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy the autumn of 1942, several thousands military aeroplanes of American design and construction were in service with the British Air Forces —the Royal Air Force, the Fleet Air Arm and the Air Forces of the British Commonwealth of Nations. Thirty-two of the chief types of United States monoplanes in British service are described and illustrated in this book. Taken in general, \"American aeroplanes\" were superlative flying Machines, but some types were considered less good as fighting machines. Nevertheless, four military categories of American aircraft were commended withbut reservation as the Best in World those days. The North American Mitchell was probably the World's best all-round medium bomber—fast and heavily armed. The Consolidated Coronado was the best patrol-bomber flying-boat. The Grumman Avenger single-motor torpedo-bomber was a long way the most outstanding carrier-borne aeroplane of its type and the Douglas C-54 (DC-4) tactical transport was the most useful machine of its class in service.\u003cbr\u003e Several other types may be singled out for special mention. The Consolidated Catalina flying-boat, the Douglas Boston III day bomber, the Douglas Havoc II night fighter, the Lockheed Hudson III patrol bomber and the North American Mustang scout. All have given excellent service on their specialised operational duties. Other types which, at the time of writing, were awaited with the greatest interest and the highest expectations are the Martin Marauder day bomber and the Republic Thunderbolt fighter.\u003cbr\u003e The author considers that American single-seat fighters have, on the whole, proved disappointing chiefly because of the low-supercharge of their motors which renders their performance poor at height. Nor have they been adequately armed and armoured. However, once that the Packard-Rolls-Royce Merlin motor achieved quantity production in the U.S.A., he tought a great improvement should result. The older types are considered useful for low offensive work—flying as fighter-bombers in the Middle East and as fighting scouts with the R.A.F. Army Co-operation Command.\u003cbr\u003eInteresting to note that the author considers the American heavy bombers fall short of their British counterparts by reason of their rather light bomb loads — a maximum of 5,000 lb. for the Fortress and 6,000 lb.for the Liberator. The new big Boeing B-29s and Consolidated B-32s -should remedy these\u003cbr\u003edefects. Meanwhile the American \" heavies\" will do invaluable work over that vital life-line, the Atlantic; and for shorter-range escorted day attacks their armament of 0.5-in. machine-guns has proved effective in action.\u003cbr\u003eMeanwhile large numbers of aircraft of the U.S. Army and the U.S. Navy are being based in Great Britain. And so Airacobras, Fortresses, Coronados, Liberators, Kittyhawks, Bostons, Dakotas, Martlets, Lightnings, Marauders, Mariners, Mitchells, Mustangs, Thunderbolts and Vengeances, flown by American as well as by British crews, will become ever more common sights to their friends in the British Isles and to their enemies on the Continent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e71 pages - in English\u003cbr\u003eweared and tanned\u003cbr\u003emessage me for cheaper postage\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dNqHENNmChU\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"www.skyshelf.eu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42934247424170,"sku":"226OR1942EN","price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/6901\/4698\/products\/original_d89baab4-f631-4878-8e07-aa17fa72c72c.jpg?v=1652264624"},{"product_id":"supf-peter-luftwaffe-von-sieg-zu-sieg-1942-original-printed-edition","title":"Supf, Peter - Luftwaffe von sieg zu sieg (1942)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSupf, Peter - Luftwaffe vom sieg zu sieg (1942)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIm Deutschen Verlag\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e221 zt. im Deutsch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"www.skyshelf.eu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42934247620778,"sku":"70 DG 1942 DE","price":8.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/6901\/4698\/files\/Gupf_P-LuftwaffevonSiegzuSieg_1-Copie.jpg?v=1730932306"},{"product_id":"moniteur-de-laeronautique-les-thunder-de-republic-aviation-en","title":"Moniteur de l'Aéronautique - Les \"Thunder\" de Republic Aviation - The \"Thunders\" of Republic Aviation (ebook)","description":"The \"Thunder\" of Republic Aviation\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThrough 49 issues of Le Moniteur de l'Aéronautique\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe first issue of \"Le Moniteur de l'Aéronautique\" magazine hit the newsstands in October 1977.

An army also showing that it was capable of projection, with units in Albania, Greece and Libya.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCuriously, it was not until November 1917 that an authority was created to coordinate the production of aircraft and aircraft engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInteresting and unusual approach, the author proposes us a section on the Italian anti-aerial artillery, a very complete part with the list of all the batteries and equipment, from the machine gun to the 75 mm gun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe next part is devoted to the Austro-Hungarian air component, both the air force - Kaiserlich and Koniglich (K.u.K.) Luftfahrtruppen (L.F.T.) - and the naval air force - K.u.K. Seeflieger - deployed along the Croatian and Albanian coasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1915, at the beginning of hostilities, the Austro-Hungarian Air Force aligned 13 flying companies (FLiK - Fliegerkompanie) and three balloon detachments; by the armistice, these figures had risen to 50 and 30 (about 600 aircraft). The main types used were the Albatros, the Brandenburg and ... the Aviatik (too!).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rest of the book is an impressive compilation, unit by unit, FLiK by FLiK (about a hundred), with its equipment and deployments. The author reviews the units and training centres, the balloon units, logistic units, meteorological units, as well as the aircraft used by the naval air, unit by unit, naval base by naval base (in Austria, Croatia and Albania).

In competition with the Yakovlev design office, the I-200 made its first flight on April 5, 1940 and immediately went into production under the designation of MiG-1. But, the MiG-1 was not a success: difficult to handle, it had insufficient armament. The development of the MiG-1 led to the MiG-3. Produced in series, this aircraft was used on a large scale during the German invasion of the USSR in 1941. Because of its limited performance, the MiG-3 could not compete with the German fighters. Indeed, he suffered from many defects. Its flying qualities were poor and its firepower insufficient. Production ceased in 1942. In total, approximately 3420 examples of the MiG-1 and MiG-3 types were produced. The MiG-3 remained in service in several units until spring 1943. Despite all the efforts made to solve its defects, it was replaced by better hunters from other design offices. \u003cbr\u003eIn 1941, the need for tutorials for the study of new air equipment, as well as the lack of documentation on aircraft modifications, forced the Aviation Technology Department to write brief descriptions of new aircraft.

The project began in 1937, and Castoldi combined highly sophisticated aerodynamics inspired by his racing models with the massive front end of a radial engine. The prototype, a monoplane with a metal structure and coating, a retractable landing gear and an open cab, flew on December 24, 1937, after a tune-up made difficult by instability problems. The first units came out of the assembly lines in June 1939.\u003cbr\u003eIts first war action took place on the Greek-Albanian front, where the M.C. 200 successfully fought against the British Hawker Hurricane.

Pour obtenir la poussée suffisante, il fallait juxtaposer plusieurs chambres de combustion, pouvant être allumées séparément ou toutes ensemble. Afin d'éviter toute dissymétrie dans la poussée, ce groupe propulsif devait être situé dans l'axe, donc dans le fuselage. La majeure partie de celui-ci était occupée par des réservoirs de kérosène pour les réacteurs ou de propergols pour les moteurs fusée.

Très vite, il s’avère que la somme d’informations disponibles sur le Trident I justifient un numéro spécial, aujourd’hui épuisé.

Pour obtenir la poussée suffisante, il fallait juxtaposer plusieurs chambres de combustion, pouvant être allumées séparément ou toutes ensemble. Afin d'éviter toute dissymétrie dans la poussée, ce groupe propulsif devait être situé dans l'axe, donc dans le fuselage. La majeure partie de celui-ci était occupée par des réservoirs de kérosène pour les réacteurs ou de propergols pour les moteurs fusée.
