Talk:Afrikaner Bond

message: I think this article should rather be about the "transformed" Afrikaner Bond and not the former Broederbond itself, since the info is in the Article of the Broederbond.
:This article is about neither - it is solely concerned with the Cape political party, not the later Afrikaner organisations.

Talk:Progressive shifting

message: I added a link to this article in Trucking industry in the United States, but I will leave the orphaned notice up. Honestly I'm not sure how many other articles could link to this page as the subject is rather specific. --ErgoSum88 (talk) 18:44, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Orphaned article 

message: The article talks about synchronizers.  Most of the larger trucks, especially Class 8, in the U.S. don't use synchronized transmissions.  In fact, many if not most truckers don't use the clutch when shifting, as the helical ground gears are fairly easy to mesh when proper RPMs are reached, and most experienced truckers can synchronize gears manually.Caisson 06 (talk) 03:23, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Synchronizers 

message: "When done properly, progressive shifting often results in quicker acceleration because diesel engines produce the most torque in lower rpm ranges." Yeah, right. That is not directly related to torque.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.199.100.4 (talk) 20:00, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Troll physics 

message: "Progressive shifting" is a technique used to conserve fuel, and it is meant to work by shifting when the engine is at high torque so that little fuel is wasted to overcome the engine's inertia and to optimize the engine's performance.  
According to Roadranger, a company that produces truck parts and an associate of the Eaton company, whose brand is often seen on transmissions in modern trucks, progressive shifting is done at various RPMs (all depending on the specific transmission) until 6th gear and 22 MPH is reached, at which gear and above up-shifting is done at, for example, 1700 RPM, that is, just below the maximum RPM that is set (governed).

message: Info around the net has it the Liberty 2.5 MW turbine had a problem with the gear train. This

message: Re: "...C.G. Adams, the pen name often used by the group's manager, Clifford Davis...".  In fact, C. G. Adams was his real name (Clifford George Adams), but he used the name Clifford Davis professionally to distinguish himself from Cliff Adams of the Cliff Adams Singers.

I'm not saying that any of the information on this page is false, I'm entirely willing to believe it to be true, but articles in an encyclopedia aren't supposed to sound quite as explicitly hagiographic as this article does.

Talk:Miles Hawcon

message: It would be good to get info on the spans and areas of the different wings.  Lukins & Russell claim their data fit the D wing, though measuring up their modellers' plan, which seems to be of the D wing suggests something nearer 41' 9".  However, the length from the plan also comes out longer than they quote.  The British a/c directory web site claims a span of 33', but their diagram, which again seems to be for the D wing scales up to about 38' 7": not 33', then but still not in agreement with L & R's 39' 5".
L & R are not entirely trustworthy, as their value for the span of the rear wing of the M39B is not compatible with their plan, whereas that of the front wing span is fine.
Presumably modern materials and construction methods have removed the weight penalties of the thinner wings, so we now work at the low end of the range explored by the M.6; nonetheless, it would be interesting to know if the A-D wing held area, span and/or aspect ratio constant. But where to look?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by TSRL (talk • contribs) 22:15, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
