Ok Dudley,
Let's get into an area of your expertise. I've always wondered this. On a P-38, when they first came out the Allison's turned counter rotating (top blade towards cabin, as you would expect). But after the first 12 or so proto's and for the rest of production, they interchanged the engines. That is each engine's top blade rotated away from the aircraft. Why? Serious, I really want to know. -- BobF. "Dudley Henriques" wrote in message ... Robert Moore wrote: Tell us once again how much solo time you have in all of thse "Navy Test Pilot School" jets. My local TV Newscaster can probably match your time with his many Blue Angel PR flights. Moore, you are really becoming a flaming bore. :-)) Don't know what your problem is but I'll say it again here for both you and any intelligent people who might read this. My flying in jets at the Test Pilot School and everywhere else connected with the military was as a guest of these institutions. They made both themselves and their aircraft available to me based on the mutual respect we maintained and maintain even today for each other. I am NOT a military pilot, nor have I ever claimed such status. I am a civilian pilot with a commercial, CFI, and a center thrust rating. My expertise is now and always has been in primary instruction, aerobatic instruction, and the flying of high performance prop aircraft.
