    Pescara Stoppable Rotor-Wing 1922 - project In stiff competition with Oemichen, Spanish engineer Marquis Raul Pateras Pescara began building rotary wing machines, initially in Barcelona, but after 1922, in France. In June of that year, Pescara proposed a co-axial rotor aircraft where the rotors could stop and form a biplane. A pusher propeller provided forward thrust. He built a small-scale model of the concept, but nothing more. Interestingly, a concept not unlike this, the Herrick Convertoplane, was flown in the U.S. just 15 years later.

    Vertol-NASA Tilt-Wing 1959 An advanced Tilt-Wing concept evolved as a joint NASA/Vertol program in the late 1950s that never advanced beyond the wind tunnel stage. A pure Tilt-Wing concept, the craft featured six-propellers driven by a thousand horsepower variable-frequency electric motor. Additional lift was also acquired by double-slotted flaps that covered about 60% of the chord. The extremely small-in-diameter propeller mounts gave the plane a completely different look.

    Nose art painted by S/Sgt Sarkis E. Bartigian 43rd Bomb Group Ie Shima, South Pacific MABEL'S LABELS B-24J Serial unknown 43rd Bomb Group "Gimme a great big smile!" And who could resist such an invitation! Another amazing creation by Bartigian which adorns the entire nose on one side of the B24 with a superb portrait of his young wife Mabel and a series of graphic lipstick kisses and beguiling nudes -- any one of which would have been considered enough on most embellished planes. Never one to hold back, Sgt Bartigian just kept on painting and filled his entire "canvas". Many aircraft around the world were adorned with portraits of loved ones, wives, sweethearts, children.... none of them were greater than this magnificently huge tribute to the artist's young bride. Here was a man who clearly enjoyed his work!

    Westland-Cierva CL-20 1935 It is true that man has conquered the air and annihilated distance, but his victory will not be truly complete until he is able to perform with the same degree of skill as Nature's aviators, the birds, with their control of wide speed ranges and ability to take off and land safely in very confined spaces. Many experiments have been made to achieve this desirable end, but only with light rotating-wing—or autogiro—aircraft has any measure of success been attained. With these machines it is now possible to fly quite slowly, in perfect safety, and to take off and alight in areas comparable to the size of a tennis court, but the problems attaching to the design and operation of large commercial aircraft of this type have still to be overcome. The development of the successful light autogiro, however, has been in two stages, the first being that in which the rotors revolved in a fixed plane in relation to the fuselage, and flight evolutions were effected by a set of normal aeroplane controls. The second stage was reached with the direct-control autogiro, in which the rotor hub could be moved and the plane of the rotors varied in relation to the fuselage, thus effecting directional control. At this stage the question of comfort arose, and Westland, in conjunction with the Cierva Company and M. Lepere, produced the C.L.20 Autogiro, a neat two-seat side-by-side cabin machine. Aviastar
  18. Mi sembra una frase un tantino contraddittoria, Il bello di questo gioco è la sua difficoltà intrinseca che cerca di riprodurre le condizioni che si venivano a creare durante i combattimenti aerei della seconda guerra mondiale, quindi non essendo un Arcade deve essere un po "Difficile"
