  1. As far as I’m concerned, Trump’s just given the Canadian aircraft company “Bombardier” the best publicity it can get! Come the lottery win, I’ve already chosen my personal daily flyer.
    Go Canada!!!

  2. First flying on 13 August 1918, the Bristol Braemar was a triplane heavy bomber designed for the Royal Air Force.
    Designed to be able to bomb Berlin, the Braemar had internal stowage for up to six 250 lb (110 kg) bombs. With the end of the First World War, no production orders were placed. destinationsjourney.com/histor #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #bomber #BristolBraemar #RAF #RoyalAirForce #triplane

  3. Rather than using a straightforward multi-engine configuration with engines mounted on the wings, the Slesarev Svyatogor was designed to use engines housed within the fuselage that drove external propellers via a belt system.
    Difficulties with the transmission system delayed the project and it was abandoned in 1921 after the death of Slesarev. The Svyatogor never flew. destinationsjourney.com/histor #aeroplane #airplane #aviation #bomber #SlesarevSvyatogor #Svyatogor

  4. The Arado Ar 234 V6 was the first four-engine prototype of the Ar 234. It used four BMW 003 turbojets in separate nacelles under the wings. It still used the take off trolly and landing skid. destinationsjourney.com/histor #aviation #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #AradoAr234 #bomber #Luftwaffe #reconnaissance #SecondWorldWar #WorldWarTwo #WW2
