Title: Some airplanes tech. drawings (1963)
Post by: Letipapa on June 08, 2008, 10:49:03 AM

I scanned this from Technical encyclopedia, tom 1 (1 A-Beta, publisher:
Jugoslovenski Leksikografski zavod, 1963).
These were my first contact with airplane construction, and now I find them somehow interesting. Hope to some of you will be also.
Lets start with some of the Brittish airplanes :-wave

:-red thank you mate. Here is now the last such drawing of whole airplane from this book: Handley Page Hermes IV,
and than something You know more. This schemes of aero photo cameras, a very simple but they also show how it generally (very generally) looked in 1963. I suppose even then it was more sophisticated (book printing was finished 1963, so info and drawings are older).
I suppose that today there is no celluloid film, but all is digital. Anyway it is nice to see some old (not so old) drawings.
