• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Swallow and the Raven

The ill fated De Havilland DH108 Swallow VW120

The third prototype of the De Havilland DH. 108 Swallow (serial VW120). VW120 first flew on 24 July 1947 flown by John Cunningham, a wartime nightfighter ace. The following year, on 12 April 1948, it established a new World Air Speed Record of 974.02 km/h (604.98 mph) on a 100 km (62 mi) circuit. Then, on 9 September 1948, it exceeded the speed of sound in a shallow dive from 12,195 m (40,000 ft) to 9,145 m (30,000 ft). In 1949, VW120 scored a third place in the Society of British Aircraft Constructors Challenge Trophy Air Race before being turned over to the UK Ministry of Supply and test flown at Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough. VW 120 was destroyed on 15 February 1950, in a fatal crash near Brickhill, Buckinghamshire, killing its test pilot, Squadron Leader Stuart Muller-Rowland.

The stillborn Focke Wulf Ta-183 Huckebein

The Focke-Wulf Ta 183 Huckebein was a design for a jet-powered fighter aircraft intended as the successor to the Messerschmitt Me 262 and other day fighters in Luftwaffe service during World War II. It was developed only to the extent of wind tunnel models when the war ended, but the basic design was further developed post-war in Argentina as the FMA Pulqui II. The name Huckebein is a reference to a trouble-making comic strip raven.
