Parfois surnommé la Jeep des airs, il a réalisé son premier vol le 4 mai 1959 avec un moteur à pistons Lycoming. Face à des performances remarquables de maniabilité, le prototype est engagé dans une expédition vers l'Himalaya en mars 1960. On peut encore y voir l'avion resté "là-haut". Il démontre son utilité dans la région et est amené à atteindre des plateaux à d'altitude où les limites de la motorisation se font sentir. En adaptant un turbopropulseur, le PC-6 devient le PC6A Turbo-Porter. Il réalise son premier vol le 2 mai 1961 équipé d'un Astazou Turboméca de 523ch. Équipée d'un Pratt ... Read more

Chapters: Swiss Fighter Aircraft 1950-1959, Swiss Military Trainer Aircraft 1950-1959, Ffa N-20, Ffa P-16, Pilatus P-3. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 20. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: The EFW N-20 "Aiguillon" (Stinger) was Switzerland's first jet fighter aircraft. The Swiss Federal Aircraft Factory developed a design for a four-engined swept winged fighter following the end of the Second World War. The aircraft was to be powered by four turbofan engines buried in the wings, with the bypass air feeding cold-air pipes each side of the engine, being routed through a combustion chamber where additional fuel could be burned as a form of reheat, or deflected though large slots on the upper and lower wings to act as aerodynamic flaps or thrust reversers. Two engines could be shut down in flight to increase range. It was planned that the N-20 would carry its armament in a detachable weapons bay, capable of carrying large loads of cannons, rockets or bombs. It was initially planned that the aircraft's engines would be designed and built by the Swiss company Sulzer, but they abandoned this project in 1947, so the British Armstrong Siddeley Mamba turboprop was chosen as the basis for the N-20's engines, with the propeller reduction gear replaced by a low pressure compressor. A 3/5 scale wooden glider was built to allow testing of novel wing shape, this flying on 17 April 1948. Although the glider was destroyed in a landing accident, it had successfully proven the design, and was followed by a similar sized powered test aircraft, the Arbalète (Crossbow), powered by four 0.98 kN (220 lbf) Turboméca Piméné, mounted above and below the wings, this flying on 16 November 1951. It proved to have good manoeuvrability and reached a maximum speed of 750 km/h (466 mph). The full scaled aircraft ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=13224689 ... Read more
