nice plane
You always Be creative in publications keep going brother
Excellent! Perfect capture at perfect moment. I like it.
Your Photographs are astonishing, so entrancing with a flood of stream, fiery too. Stay in contact
Beautiful snaps.
Is that the Antonov An-2? The big heavy russian steel, the only plane that you would feel safe to land directly into a cornfield.
I think you might feel comfortable landing just about anywhere.
Wow. Thats a huge bi-plane there. Very cool. Pls can i ask, what were the advantages of biplanes??i mean they were structurally more complex, had more drag and many things, then why the earlier flying machines were biplanes?? what made them more advantageous in earlier times?? was their only purpose was to provide more lift?? if so, why aren't they used now(i mean, in air not in meuseums
Okay from my little experience about planes and living nesr an airfield, i can say that you get (almost) twice as much lift for a given wingspan. It was difficult to create long wings that were stiff enough to support themselves and the aerodynamic forces. Biplanes not only give you shorter wings but you can easily brace them against each other. The problem as you pointed out is that they are complex and give lots of drag. Some are used today, tandem wings (with one wing in front of the other) or canards (small wing near the nose) - they are more manouverable and usually don't need horizontal tails.
I think from my level of knowledge. Yes, the canard has a higher angle of attack than the wing and stalls first, this pushes the nose down, increases the speed and automatically recovers. I'm guessing also that since the canard isn't in the wash of the main wing the aerodynamic controls on it are more effective than on a conventional tail.
I agree with @lucyogo.
As far as I can remember (and it's been a while), the main advantage to canards is that they lower the stall potential for the main wings. You can have a steeper angle of attack at low power without falling down. The elevators don't counter lift; they simply change the pitch axis of the aeroplane. You get the same effect with elevons on a delta layout, which doesn't even have a 'tail'
Higher uplifts, especially at low speeds (and in the start, with heavy weight ~10PS engines didn't make that much speed).
You can also do really close corners.
That is also why you sometimes had triple wings.
Hello, A biplane has extraordinary abilities to fly at low speed and perform takeoffs and landings over short distances (STOL)
fantastic photography @ngos
Wow lovely plane I would like to fly in her. Lovely pictures it makes it look real
great photography, I really like the post @ngos
What was the Speed approximately ;) ?
It gives goose bumps when it turns <3 Wow
Amazing Photography Man @ngos
I like these Picture ;) Just WOW Amazing Bi-Plan
Stay Blessed , Steem On!
@ngos the photos are very clear. Are you taking these photos?
would be so scared in this, amazing tho
Well done post . You deserve for getting Upvote from me. I appreciate on it and like it so much . Waiting for your latest post. Keep your good work and steeming on. Let's walk to my blog. I have a latest post. Your upvote is high motivation for me. Almost all Steemians do their best on this site. Keep steeming and earning.
This plane is really huge. And could be done sever types of tasks by this huge bi-plane. Heavy machinery, Radars, small planes would be transferred from one place to other like C130, c140 etc. Awesome click indeed. Your photography skill is outclass. Keep sharing unique stuff dear @ngos. All the best!
Great shots! I like the last picture the best because of the diagonal lines.
Only the crop is a little tight.
Wow! Beautiful, this pictures deserve upvote and resteemed it is interesting.
la secuencia en las imágenes responde a diferentes planos de la fotografía, excelente
It's a great feeling to fly. I had a little flight experience in pilot test. That day is so different in my life. It's excitement. It's self-confidence. It's fear. It's love. It's fondness. Every emotion you may have. Mix of all. I will never forget this. I hope I can live again someday. @ngos
What spectacular photos friend, congratulations are very good. regards
Who takes these photographs? Drones?
wow it looks awesome , all planes photos is supper my dear.,.,,
If you say its the biggest, why didn't you put in any numbers???
Thats an awesome plane! :O
The plane looks wonderfully nice. I commend you for posting on this unique plane, I love it and will like to fly on it. I follow and upvote you.
WOW ! I love the "From ocean to ocean" Slogan on it. What is this beast designed for ?
Love your shots! That is definitely a monster of a plane.
Some really great aviation shots.
Your Photographs are surprising, so spellbinding with a surge of stream, searing as well. most lovely and atractive
This is an Antonov AN-2, this plane has a paticulary explaind in the flight manual:
Hi the Antonov 2 is indeed a large bi-plane but definatly not the largest bi-plane ever build. The Handley Page HP-42 was a British bi-plane with a astonishing wing span of 130 feet and a 92 feet lengt. The An-2 has a wingspan of "only " 59 feet and a length of 40 feet. So damn small to me compared to the Handley Page HP42.
