Today it's the referendum day in China! The population of China is called, to lodge his voice concerning the restoration of the monarchy. The duration of the vote is scheduled for 7 days.

While in the east of the country, in the growing coastal cities, the population wants no change, but the population in the inner country is more for the restoration of the monarchy.

The Twin Wasp is a radial engine, but the pics show inlines. Which is right?

Just curious, what plane is the Gangchuan F6B based on? The stats seems a wee bit fudged.

@Des: Enginetype corrected ;)

@Thes: Why do you think this ?

When you look at the text (that is if you get the Japanese characters like I do; otherwise the text is just a mess), 'He-100' appears in the text so I assume that this Aichi J3A1 is based on the He-100. Looking at the He-100D-0 stats, it's pretty similar to the J3A1 stats given except that the J3A1 is 50 km/h slower than the He-100D-0 but can climb a little bit faster than the He-100D-0.

Climbs a whole minute and forty eight seconds faster than the stats I have for the D-1 with practically the same HP output (1175). She also has less guns and less range than the D-1.

I've also noticed that its rather difficult to find stats on the GW aircraft.

Has anyone now problems with the stats ?

On what GW aircraft?

17

Wednesday, September 10th 2008, 5:40pm

Looking at the news, I would guess the 105 and 107...

Wednesday, September 10th 2008, 5:41pm

The Data for all GW aircraft that entered production (with the possible exception of the 112) is in the GW thread

All of them I suppose, it would be really helpfull if all the GW designs were grouped togeather rather than searching for them in the various encyclopedia's.
