In reality, the 6 props and 4 jets were just so that the engineers onboard could say "6 turnin' and 4 burnin" The jets also helped with increasing the fuel consumption, the exhaust smoke output and overall coolness. No other reason for it apparently........ Seriously, the jet engines helped with both extra speed, loadout and altitude capabilities. -- Jeff Cochrane - VK4BOF Innisfail, QLD, Australia |
