A380

A380

There are a lot of airports in the world that are putting big money into their infrastructures to accomodate these aircraft. There is a major camp in the airline business that thinks that massive aircraft are going to be the only way the companys are going to survive. Of course, I think they are dead wrong. The smaller commuter lines are going to be the wave of the future (at least in the US anyways). We shall see.

Didn't someone a while ago post a comparisson between the A380 and the Spruce Goose? It was still smaller than the Spruce Goose which should give you a bit of insight into what Howard Hughes really accomplished.

BIG Airplane

BIG Airplane

A little excitement at McCarran Airport, Las Vegas. The world's largest aircraft (Russian Antonov 225). It was there to deliver a very large power transformer for Nevada Power, which was built in Turkey. Note the wingspan is just about a football field length... Specs at bottom.

Mil Heavy-Lift Helicopters

Mil Heavy-Lift Helicopters

* The Mil organization began work on their first heavy-lift helicopter in 1954, when the OKB was ordered to design a rotorcraft that could carry a payload of more than 11 tonnes (25,000 pounds) over a distance of 240 kilometers (150 miles). The big rotorcraft was intended for both commercial and military service. The Soviet civil airline organization, Aeroflot, wanted to use the machine for operations in trackless backwoods environments, particularly Siberia, and the military wanted it to lift rocket launchers and other heavy weapons.

The result was the huge "Mi-6", which was given the NATO codename "Hook". Five Mi-6 prototypes were produced, the first flying in the fall of 1957 with test pilot Rafail Kaprelian at the controls. The Mi-6 is believed to have entered production in 1960, with about 860 built to end of production in 1981.

The Mi-6 was powered by twin Soloviev D-25V (TB-2BM) turboshaft engines with 4,100 kW (5,500 SHP) each. Access panels to the engines were opened and closed hydraulically, and were sturdy enough to be used as work platforms by maintenance crews. The Mi-6 featured a huge five-bladed main rotor with metal blades, and a four-bladed tail rotor with blades made of plastic-impregnated wood built around steel spars. The rotor system was originally fitted with an electrothermal de-icing system, but this was replaced in early production with an alcohol-based scheme.

My contribution to this week's (I hope it's not the last one) Friday Theme. The buildings of Trondheim look quite small compared to the huge ship, which is leaving the port.
I intended to bring some more brightness to the photo with this yellow frame.

A Big Ship needs a Very Big Engine

A Big Ship needs a Very Big Engine
The internals of this engine are a bit different than most automotive engines.
The top of the connecting rod is not attached directly to the piston. The top of the connecting rod attaches to a "crosshead" which rides in guide channels. A long piston rod then connects the crosshead to the piston.
I assume this is done so the the sideways forces produced by the connecting rod are absorbed by the crosshead and not by the piston. Those sideways forces are what makes the cylinders in an auto engine get oval-shaped over time.
