Talk:Yakovlev Yak-24

message: The process was presumably for the SU government to issue the specification first, and only then could Yakolev begin detailed design and construction of the prototype to meet the specification. The dates given for these two events are in this paragraph:
In late summer 1952, the Soviet Union issued two design specifications for helicopters, with the intent of catching up to the United States in post-World War II helicopter development. The design for the medium-sized helicopter which could transport 12 people was issued to the Mil Design Bureau, whereas the design for a larger version capable of transporting 24 people was given to the Yakovlev Design Bureau under Alexander Yakovlev, which had not had any previous design experience with helicopters prior to this project. Yakovlev made two prototypes for flight testing, and two more for static and dynamic ground tests. The first prototype was flown on 3 July 1952.
This "summer" is presumably the northern hemisphere summer, which is June July August. The time "late summer" is vague but is simply interpreted as any time after mid-summer, or after 15 July 1952. It does not seem possible for the prototype to be flying 2 weeks before the specifications for it were even issued. The flight happened later or the specs were issued earlier or both.
As the alleged motivation was "catching up to the USA" and the similar-looking Piasecki H-21 tandem rotor helicopter had first flown in the USA in April 1952, I suggest "late spring" would be in theory a more logical timeframe for the specifications to be issued, or if the issuance date is known with greater certainty then the first flight must have occurred much later than 3 July. Another option is that the specifications were co-developed with the prototype, such that the government was not officially asking for anything that had not already been basically proven, but that would be abnormal for the 1950s and the article does not say that design process was used.
Does anyone know of a source which can resolve this contradiction in dates?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew McRae 78 (talk • contribs) 05:19, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: All the sources I've looked at (i.e. Stroud, Gunston as already used as references, Gunston & Gordon's Yakovlev Aircraft since 1924 and Gordon, Komissarov and Komissarov's OKB Yakovlev) say that the requirement dated from the Autumn of 1951 (more precisely in September) following a meeting with Stalin - Mil were assigned a single-engined transport helicopter which became the Mil Mi-4 and Yakovlev a helicopter of twice the capacity, with both aircraft to be flying within a year.Nigel Ish (talk) 17:14, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

replies: text: There are pictures available in books, and perhaps online also, but most of them won't be copyright-free, so we can't use them here. To be honest, there's not much to the Yak-36's VTOL system - the main image has a good shot of the port nozzle, and the starboard one is identical, with the engine in front of them. The nozzles angled straight down for take-off, and straight back for forward flight - That's all there really is to it. Puffer vents were in the nose, tail, and wingtips for control. - BilCat (talk) 20:56, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: About this page

message: After watching the English DVDs released by Geneon, it has come to my attention that the spelling of this character's name on virtually all the Fighting Spirit pages is incorrect. This is probably in part to most people's introduction of the series was by translated pages of the manga that were released on the internet, myself included. I believe that the proper spelling should be "Alexander Volg Zangief" with an "L" instead of an "R" in his middle name. His name is spelled as "Volg" on the back of the DVD covers and in the subtitles. The name on his boxing trunk is even spelled with an "L" in the manga, anime, and on merchandise. This is probably because in the translated manga on the internet translated his name from katakana, ヴォルグ, which translates out as "Vorugu". *Note: the Japanese "R" sound is not the same sound as the English "R", it is almost like a slurred English "R" and "L" together, which is why it is sometimes used for both "R" and "L" sounds in English.* In the case of the manga translations, it was assumed to be an English "R". Given that his name also means "wolf" in Russian, wolf is "Волк" in Russian. The "В" is pronounced as a "V" in English, the "о" is pronouced as an "o" in English, the "л" is pronouced as an "l" in English, and the "к" is pronouced as a "k" in English. For the sake of accuracy, I plan on moving the page over to "Alexander Volg Zangief" and correcting the spelling on any pages that it may occur. Any thoughts or objections?

replies: text: Comment. I am not sure. On the face of it, yes, this split is pointless. But the articles do not bring out the longstanding distinction, over many versions, of the single-seat Akrobat vs the two-seat Trener. The key advantage of a split for these shorter articles is the ability to provide detailed specification sections for different marks. Here, one for a typical Trener and another for a typical Akrobat would be the obvious way to go, if some kind of split were to be maintained. But do we have enough information yet to structure the split sensibly? Some military history on the one hand and acrobatic career highlights on the other would help fill out their respective articles, but we don't have all that yet. Meanwhile, what to do? I would be inclined to refocus - and rename - each article around the Trener and Akrobat, say Zlín Z-26 Trener and Zlín Akrobat (which is currently a redirect). Then just do the best we can until they fill out. If that goes badly, then revisit a merge in a year or so. But in truth, I have no strong feelings at this stage. Don't know if that helps. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 15:40, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger proposal
Talk:Draisine

message: I'm not convinced that a merge would be a good idea here.  Admittedly, both the handcar and the draisine are light, non-revenue rolling stock, but the draisine seems to be powered by feet turning a gear mechanism, and the handcar by hands providing an up-and-down motion; the mechanical aspects of the two are different.  Placing "Handcar" under "Draisine" would thus be misleading, as would placing "Draisine" under "Handcar".  I could see both articles turned into separate subsections of a third article that might deal with MOW or lightweight railcars as a whole, but not combining the two articles under draisine or handcar.  So, my vote is "no". --Badger151 05:16, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Right. "Draisine" unfortunately is used for a variety of things, all of them more or less rare, while "Handcar" is used for one thing, which was once commonplace.  One could perhaps cook up more justification for adding "handcar" into the list of things a "drasine" can be than vice versa, but there's no need.  Jim.henderson (talk) 02:08, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merger with ''Handcar''? 

message: Quote: A draisine primarily refers to a light auxiliary rail vehicle or trolley [my emphasis]
I am unconvinced that the word draisine has ever been commonly, let alone primarily, used in English in the chief sense given here, that of a light hand- or pedal-powered rail vehicle. Such vehicles are, to the best of my knowledge, called handcars in American English and (rail) trolleys in British English.
The only English-language use of draisine that I am familiar with is in reference to Mr von Drais's original wheeled-hobby-horse precursor to the bicycle. I therefore feel that – while merger with Handcar may not be called for (see discussion above) – the current introduction needs rewriting.
