Grahame - White Ganymede The Grahame - White Ganymede was a prototype British heavy night bomber intended to serve with the Royal Air Force in the First World War . A large , three - engined , twin - boom biplane , the sole prototype Ganymede did not fly until after the war had ended , and although an attempt was made to convert the aircraft to an airliner , it was unsuccessful . Development and design . In 1918 , the Grahame - White Aviation Company of Hendon , London developed a large , long - range heavy bomber intended to equip the Royal Air Force . The resulting design , the E . IV Ganymede , was of unusual layout , being a three - engined , twin - boom biplane with four - bay wings . Two of the engines were located at the front of the booms , driving tractor propellers , while the third engine was installed at the rear of the central nacelle , driving a pusher propeller . A biplane tail unit with three fins and rudders spun the gap between the two main fuselage booms . The two pilots and a bomb - aimer / gunner were accommodated in the central nacelle , while additional gunners cockpits were provided in each of the fuselage booms , with Scarff ring mountings for a machine gun together with a tunnel opening under the fuselages to allow the gunners to repel attacks from below . It was intended that the Ganymede be powered by three 400 hp ( 298 kW ) Liberty engine , but concerns about the availability of the American - built Liberty resulted in considerably less powerful Sunbeam Maori engines being specified when an order was placed for three prototypes . The first of these prototypes , serial number " C3481 " was completed late in 1918 . While it was tested by the Air Ministry during 1919 , the RAF had little interest in purchasing a new heavy bomber , and the remaining two prototypes were cancelled . After being damaged in a landing accident in 1919 , Grahame - White rebuilt the Ganymede into a civil airliner , becoming the E . 9 Ganymede . The central engine was removed completely , while the two remaining engines were replaced by 450 hp ( 336 kW ) Napier Lion s . The nacelle was rebuilt with two pilots in an open cockpit ahead of a glazed cabin housing 12 passengers . The modified aircraft was granted an Certificate of Airworthiness on 12 September 1919 , with the Aircraft registration " G - EAMW " , but was destroyed in a fire in September 1920 .

Oberscharführer Oberscharführer was a Nazi Party paramilitary rank that existed between the years of 1932 and 1945 . Translated as “ senior squad leader ” , " Oberscharführer " was first used as a rank of the " Sturmabteilung " ( SA ) and was created due to an expansion of the enlisted positions required by growing SA membership in the late 1920s and early 1930s . The SA rank of " Oberscharführer " was senior to " Scharführer " and junior to the rank of " Truppführer " . Since early ranks of the " Schutzstaffel " ( SS ) were identical to the ranks of SA , " Oberscharführer " was created as an SS rank at the same time the position was created within the SA . Initially , the rank of " SS - Oberscharführer " was equal to its SA counterpart , however , this changed in 1934 following the Night of the Long Knives . At that time , the SS rank system was reorganized and several new ranks established with older SA titles discontinued . The rank of " SS - Oberscharführer " was therefore “ bumped up ” and became equal to an " SA - Truppführer " . The insignia for the SS rank was changed , as well , becoming two silver collar pips in contrast to the SA insignia for " Oberscharführer " which was a single collar pip with silver stripe . Within the SA , an " Oberscharführer " was typically a squad leader , answering to a platoon non - commissioned officer . The responsibilities varied across a wider range in the SS , in particular between an " Oberscharführer " in the " Allgemeine SS " ( general SS ) and one holding the same position in the " Waffen - SS " ( armed SS ) . After 1938 , when the SS adopted field grey uniforms as the standard duty attire , " SS - Oberscharführer " displayed the shoulder insignia of a " Wehrmacht Feldwebel " . The rank of " SS - Oberscharführer " was junior to " SS - Hauptscharführer " .
