I am guessing here.Bolasani wrote:I was watching an episode of 'Jai Hind with Rocky and Mayur', on Combat Aviation Training School of Indian Army. There they showed a Dhruv simulating landing after the failure of 1 engine. The chopper skid along the ground for quite a few meters on land before coming to stop.
Could anybody please tell me how the loss of an engine translate to skidding on landing?
Thanks & Regards

I will check out what Google Chacha has to offer regarding Helicopter gliding.
Translational lift (also known as Effective Translational Lift, or ETL) is a transitional state present as a helicopter moves from hover to forward flight. This state provides extra lift, most typically, when the airspeed reaches approximately 16-24 knots, but is present with any horizontal flow of air across the rotor [1], and therefore can be present without any forward motion of the aircraft, given prevailing wind conditions.
The most common example of the effect is this: a helicopter might be slightly overloaded for take off so that it cannot hover. Liftoff can still be achieved if the helicopter has enough of a straight runway to make a "Running take off" where the pilot will slowly accelerate the helicopter across the ground until translational lift speed is achieved, extra rotor-disc lift is produced, and the aircraft will begin to climb.
In Robert Mason’s book[2], Chickenhawk, Mason describes a situation where an aircraft, loaded with 2500 pounds of high explosives, was above gross weight and should have been unable to achieve flight, was actually "coaxed" into flight via the "Running Take Off".

You cannot directly upload pics from your hdd to this forum. You would first have to upload the pics to any free image hosting site (like photobucket). You can then post the link here.
Uploading to photobucket is very easy. You just create a free account there and press the upload button. Then a window will appear and you just select the files you want to upload.
I'm no expert myself, but I found A.C. Kermode's book "Flight Without Formulae" very helpful. Its short, and expounds the basic concepts very nicely.manish.rastogi wrote:RahulM saar as suggested by you I downloaded that Daniel P raymer's Aircraft design book, but its quite old in my opinion like 1989's edition. Also I am low on time and can afford to read one book only.
So can you or anyone else please suggest a good aircraft designing book(latest preferably) asap! Please!!!!
If it does, I have never heard of it. Warships carry basic survival equipment along with life boats, and equipment for some form of fishing is a given - but not for routine use.AdityaM wrote:Does a warship have fishing nets to catch fresh food for self while on peaceful patrol?

If writing longer documents (html, latex), itrans (http://www.aczoom.com/itrans/) is better.
It reduces the length of the rifle for the same or longer barrel length. It is also easier to fire a bull-pup rifle with one hand if need be.gakakkad wrote:why is the bullpup config more popular in modern assault rifles?
In answer to Rahul garu's query above, my guess would be the presence of a radar. IIRC, the gen 3 a/c such as the Mirage F1, MiG-23, and F4, all came with an FCR, the MiG-21 did not until much later?what would you say are the primary characteristics of a 2nd gen fighter as against a 3rd gen one ?
please reply in newbie thread. this is going OT here.
As far as i know a snow shooter is a snow clearing vehicle which spray's d snow away from the road instead of just piling it on d road side.arijitkm wrote:http://www.flickr.com/photos/64675684@N04/5887393223/
