TAF VIII-2, four-seater Tandem Airfoil Flairboat Typ Jörg II, built in 1983. Following the F&E and test period, Dipl. Ing. Günther Jörg was awarded with the "Phillip Morris Scientific Award" for the Transportation System for the future. Another TAF VIII-2, built in 1994 was given to a Japanese private citizen.
Ekranoplan A-90 Orlyonok. A ground-effect vehicle (GEV), also called a wing-in-ground-effect (WIGE or WIG), ground-effect craft/machine (GEM), wingship, flarecraft, surface effect vehicle or ekranoplan (Russian: экранопла́н – "screenglider"), is a vehicle that is able to move over the surface by gaining support from the reactions of the air against the surface of the earth or water.
The first XV-15 prototype aircraft, N702NA, was transferred back to Bell for company development and demonstration use. On 20 August 1992, the aircraft crashed while being flown by a guest test pilot. He was lifting off for a final hover when a bolt slipped out of the collective control system on one pylon, causing that rotor to go to full pitch.
Production variant with 15 metre wingspan and wider cockpit. 0.62 m (2.03 ft) in width, 0.81 m (2.66 ft) in height. [4] Discus-2T "Turbo" variant with 15 metre wingspan and a 15.3 kW (20.5 hp) SOLO 2350 2-stroke, 2 cylinder sustainer engine. Discus-2c Production variant with 15 metre or 18 metre wingspan. Discus-2cT
The stagnation point on the topside of the airfoil then moves until it reaches the trailing edge. [1]: §§ 6.2, 6.3 The starting vortex eventually dissipates due to viscous forces. As the airfoil continues on its way, there is a stagnation point at the trailing edge. The flow over the topside conforms to the upper surface of the airfoil.
CAF Core is a library module comprising standard data types and other pre-defined development objects. It enables rapid development, KM integration, and, through standardization, integration of CAF applications with non-SAP systems. It is a misconception that CAF 'includes' Guided Procedures or any Business Process Modeling framework/tool ...

AD Airworthiness Directive: ADA Advisory area ADAHRS Air data attitude heading reference system ADC Air data computer: ADD Acceptable deferred defect ADF Automatic direction finder: Navigation equipment ADI Attitude ...
The profile was designed in 1922 by Virginius E. Clark using thickness distribution of the German-developed Goettingen 398 airfoil. [1] The airfoil has a thickness of 11.7 percent and is flat on the lower surface aft of 30 percent of chord. The flat bottom simplifies angle measurements on propellers, and makes for easy construction of wings.
