John James Flynt , Jr . John James Flynt , Jr . ( November 8 , 1914 – June 24 , 2007 ) was a United States Representative from Georgia . Born in Griffin , Georgia , Flynt attended the public schools and Georgia Military Academy ( now the Woodward Academy ) . He later attended the University of Georgia at Athens where he was a member of the Phi Kappa Literary Society and received an A . B . in 1936 . He served in the United States Army from 1936 to 1937 and again from 1941 to 1945 ; he was also a member of the United States Army Reserve . Flynt attended the Emory University School of Law in 1937 and 1938 and graduated from George Washington University Law School in 1940 . He was a lawyer in private practice and was assistant United States attorney for northern district of Georgia from 1939 to 1941 and again in 1945 and 1946 . He was a member of the Georgia House of Representatives 1947 – 1948 , and was solicitor general for Griffin Judicial Circuit from 1949 to 1954 . In 1952 – 1954 , he was president of the Georgia Bar Association . Flynt was a delegate to the Georgia State Democratic conventions in 1946 , 1950 , 1954 , 1958 , 1962 , and 1966 , and was a delegate to the Democratic National Conventions of 1960 and 1968 . Flynt was elected as a Democrat to the Eighty - third Congress by special election to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Representative A . Sidney Camp , and at the same time was elected to the Eighty - fourth Congress . He was reelected to the eleven succeeding Congresses , serving from November 2 , 1954 to January 3 , 1979 . While in Congress , he was chair of the Committee on Standards of Official Conduct ( Ninety - fourth and Ninety - fifth Congresses ) . Jack Flynt was the focus of two books by the political scientist , Richard Fenno : " Home Style " and " Congress at the Grassroots " . A staunch segregationist , in 1956 , Flynt signed the " Southern Manifesto " . Flynt was reelected nine times without serious difficulty . However , in 1974 , he was nearly defeated by political newcomer Newt Gingrich , a professor at the University of West Georgia . This came as a considerable surprise . Flynt was known as one of the most conservative Democrat s in the House , and 1974 was a very bad year for Republicans nationally due to fallout from Watergate . After an equally close rematch against Gingrich in 1976 ( despite former governor Jimmy Carter ' s bid for president ) , Flynt opted not to run for reelection in 1978 , when his district was finally won by Gingrich . Gingrich ' s eventual success was largely due to changing demographics , as the southern and western suburbs of Atlanta came to become the dominant constituency in the district , overriding the native - born farming and small - town population in the voting booth , with Northern transplants and refugees from an increasingly African - American Atlanta having little or no use for traditional " Dixiecrats " such as Flynt . Gingrich benefited from this population shift . After leaving Congress , Flynt resumed the practice of law and farming operations . He engaged in banking and real estate , and lived in Griffin , Georgia until his death in 2007 .

Fiat B . R . The Fiat B . R . 1 / 4 was a series of light bomber developed in Italy shortly after World War I . Design and development . The B . R was a development of the SIA 9 reconnaissance aircraft , incorporating major strengthening of that design . Its general layout was identical with its predecessor : a two - bay biplane with tandem , open cockpits for pilot and observer , and tailskid undercarriage . Shortly after entering service with the " Regia Aeronautica " , however , Rosatelli developed an improved version using the Warren truss - style bracing that would become a hallmark of his designs over the next decade . The B . R . was evolved into a number of increasingly capable variants ; however , by the time the later members of the family were produced , 15 years had passed since the initial design , and the type was already obsolete . At its peak , the BR equipped 15 light bomber squadrons of the " Regia Aeronautica " . Two examples were also exported to Sweden , and one to Hungary . In 1922 , a specially modified BR designated the R . 700 was used to set the world absolute airspeed record at 336 km / h ( 210 mph ) . The same aircraft was used to contest the " Coupe Deutsch de la Meurthe " in September that year .
Flying Officer Flying Officer ( Fg Off in the RAF and IAF ; FLGOFF in the RAAF ; FGOFF in the RNZAF ; F / O in the former RCAF and frequently in the RAF ) is a junior commissioned rank in the Royal Air Force and the air forces of many countries which have historical British influence . It is also sometimes used as the English translation of an equivalent rank in countries which have a non - English air force - specific rank structure . In these cases a Flying Officer usually ranks above Pilot Officer and immediately below Flight Lieutenant . It has a NATO ranking code of OF - 1 and is equivalent to a Lieutenant in the British Army or the Royal Marines . However , it is superior to the nearest equivalent rank of Sub - Lieutenant in the Royal Navy . The equivalent rank in the Women ' s Auxiliary Air Force ( WAAF ) was Section Officer . Origins . The term " Flying Officer " was originally used in the Royal Flying Corps as a flying appointment for junior officers , not a rank . On 1 April 1918 , the newly created RAF adopted its officer rank titles from the British Army , with Royal Naval Air Service Sub - Lieutenants ( titled Flight Sub - Lieutenants ) and Royal Flying Corps Lieutenants becoming Lieutenants in the RAF . However , with the creation of the RAF ' s own rank structure on 1 August 1919 , RAF Lieutenants were re - titled as Flying Officers , a rank which has been in continuous use ever since . Usage . In many cases the rank of flying officer is the first rank an air force officer holds after successful completion of his professional training . A flying officer might serve as a squadron pilot , an adjutant , a security officer or an administrative officer and is typically given charge of personnel and / or resources . The rank title does not imply that an officer in the rank of Flying Officer flies an aircraft . Some Flying Officers are aircrew , but many are ground branch officers . Amongst the ground branches some flying officers have command of flights . Insignia . The rank insignia consists of one narrow blue band on slightly wider black band . This is worn on both the lower sleeves of the tunic or on the shoulders of the flying suit or the casual uniform . The rank insignia on the mess uniform is similar to the naval pattern , being one band of gold running around each cuff but without the Royal Navy ' s loop . Other air forces . The rank of Flying Officer is also used in a number of the air forces in the Commonwealth , including the Bangladesh Air Force , Indian Air Force ( IAF ) , Pakistan Air Force ( PAF ) , Royal Australian Air Force ( RAAF ) and Royal New Zealand Air Force ( RNZAF ) . The Royal Canadian Air Force ( RCAF ) used the rank until unification of the three armed services into the Canadian Forces in 1968 and army - type ranks were adopted . RCAF personnel holding this rank then switched to the rank of Lieutenant . In official French Canadian usage , a flying officer ' s rank title was " lieutenant d ' aviation " . The rank of Warrant Flying Officer was also used by the air service of the Imperial Japan ese military .

Cannone - Mitragliera da 20 / 77 ( Scotti ) The Cannone - Mitragliera da 20 / 77 ( Scotti ) was a 20 mm anti - aircraft gun produced by the Scotti company in Italy and used by that country in World War II . It used the 20x138mmB cartridge . History . The Italian army had two standard 20 mm anti - aircraft weapons during World War II . One was the Breda and the other was the Cannone - Mitragliera da 20 / 77 ( Scotti ) that was first designed in 1932 and produced by the Swiss Oerlikon company that used a 60 round drum that was eventually discarded in favor of 12 round trays for the ammunition . Compared to the Breda , the Scotti was a far simpler weapon . It resembled the Oerlikon in some respects , but used a different mechanism . The Scotti was easier to manufacture than the Breda , but despite using a longer barrel , the Scotti ’ s overall performance was inferior . The same ammunition type was used , but , based on the lower effective ceiling , with a different propellant charge . To balance this , when used against targets at low altitude , the rate of fire was slightly higher and , for the benefit of the crew , the Scotti was made lighter . The Scotti was used in smaller numbers than the Breda , but by many other nations , such as China and many of the South American countries . After 1942 , the ease of fabrication led to an increase in production totals , but the type never seriously challenged the number of Bredas in service . Before 1943 , many Scottis were used by German troops in North Africa as the 2 - cm Scotti ( i ) , and once the Italians surrendered , the Scotti became an established part of the German inventory . It was used by the Germans operating against the Yugoslav partisans . Two versions of the Scotti were produced ; one , a semi - mobile version that could be carried on trucks and dismounted for use ; the other , a fixed version used for defense . Once off the trucks , the first version could be manhandled into position on its two wheel carriage , although in action the gun rested on a flat tripod mounting . The second version was static on a pedestal mount , and was mainly used in defense of the Italian homeland . A number of these were taken over by the British troops for local defense of coastal artillery positions . After 1945 , the Scotti was used for a number of years by the reconstituted Italian army .
