"The SST: Here it comes, ready or not.

Traditionally new transport aircraft have been adapted from military versions for civilian use. But with the US/SST, a switch may give the USAF an Advanced Manned Strategic Aircraft (AMSA) based on a civilian expenditure of billions in research and development funds. Here, Air Force & Space Digest artist Gordon Phillips shows how military SST would look during midair re-fueling operation.

Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird – The Plane Designed to Leak

The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is a revolutionary piece of aviation engineering, designed to push the boundaries of flight. The Blackbird was a long-range, advanced, strategic reconnaissance aircraft. It was flown at speeds up to Mach 3, or three times the speed of sound, and it remains the fastest manned air-breathing aircraft to ever fly. But the Blackbird had an interesting feature that made it unique - it was designed to leak. What this did was release pressure as the aircraft flew at high speeds and altitudes, allowing it to fly faster, farther, and remain in flight longer. The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is a remarkable aircraft, and a true testament to the power of human ingenuity.

Okay, so, I was playing around with the Hikaku Sitatter again. It's a site where you can put in heights and you get a height chart, and I made one for my Transformers Ocs... And... well...

I JUST REALIZED RECORD IS ONE TALL BOY! And his height isn't even the actual height of his alt-mode. A Lockheed C-5 Super Galaxy has a lenght of 75.53m those are 24780,18 feet. Which means he could just step on his foes and take them out that way.

And then there is Flinch, who's alt-mode is also way longer than his height. A Blackbird has a lenght of 32.73m, that's 107.4 feet. That means he's also a tall boy and his fear of stepping on his Minibot friends is even more justified. I mean, look at Silverlining. He's just a spot there.

This also means, their ship is huge, or at least has very high hallways.

Also, both Record and Flinch can give other Cybertronians a ride in their alt-mode no matter what, and I like that.

Focke-Wulf Fw-190 – The Butcher Bird | PlaneHistoria

The Focke-Wulf Fw-190 is a single-seat, single-engine fighter aircraft that was developed by the company during the Second World War. The Fw-190 was designed as a replacement for the Messerschmitt Bf 109, which was the main fighter aircraft of the Luftwaffe at that time. The Fw-190 was designed to be a sturdier and stable aircraft than the Bf 109, with a wider undercarriage that made it easier to taxi, land and take off.

The Fw-190 also had a larger wing area than the Bf 109, which gave it a much better rate of climb and made it a much more effective interceptor. The Fw-190 was a very effective fighter aircraft and saw extensive action against Allied aircraft during the Second World War. It was also used by several other air forces after the war ended, including those of Egypt, Finland, Japan, Syria and Yugoslavia. Visit our website for more information.
