I haven't looked much into the future design of the quad tiltrotor, if anybody else has, please post any info you can. But a quadtiltrotor seems to be a promising project. I presume the engines in front and rear would be standard forward-facing props and I guess they would be offset so that the...

Hello, Saw a video on the WW II Hellcat, and on the walk-around it was mentioned that the Stab. was fabric covered. Not sure if anything else was. Really surprised. Why did they use fabric on the Stab. ?

I am researching the record of A. R. Stitzelberger, a distant relative, who was a gunner in the Battle of Midway. According to the official battle report the plane that he flew on the Enterprises' first sortie of the battle was subsequently flown by two other pilots and gunners. Was it common...

Anybody else bothered by the naming of US aircraft carriers after people who were still living at the time? I'm sure that Carl Vinson (CVN-70) & John C.

Given the tensions in the pacific rim part of the world, it seems a possibility of a air exchange between China and a US naval carrier battle group. My question is what would be the likely outcome of such an exchange? (non nuclear) With modern SU27 and SU30 fighters, the Chinese seem far...
