  5. Red bomber rear gunners

    Interesting, have to think that over because your speed is added to the speed of your bullet which I think should in its turn increase the range of your guns..Another thing is air resistance which is of course heavier for the "attacking" bullits. Will talk it over next saturday, going to a meeting with a lot of old pilots at the Dutch Historic Flight at Gilze Rijen AB, there is bound to be someone there who flew gun armed Hunters and Sabres in the intercept role in the Cold War days,

  22. .... and in lots of cases it is the use of fuel that would otherwise be dumped (cooking oil) or be made out of waste (biomass) that is produced anyway and would normally be burned off in order to get rid of it. That is something else than using up vast areas of land to grow stuff to produce fuel. Mixing available quantities with the normal fossile fuels is already a step in the right direction......
