Heh. You guys need to brush up on Godwin's Law. “As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving ***** or Hitler approaches one.”
Of course, it's really more of an observation than a proscription. And Mike Godwin himself has recently clarified that it's perfectly acceptable to call someone a **** if they are waving a swastika flag, making veiled references to **** ideology or the Fuhrer (1488, and so on), or otherwise acting like, well... *****.
It is a 10 cylinder 2-cycle radial built around a custom-made crankshaft, rods, and case. Each of the cylinders & pistons comes from a Czech-made Jawa 50cc moped.
I say "custom rods," though of course only the two master rods are actually custom-made. The eight link rods are stock Jawa moped parts.
How, you may be asking, can a 10 cyl radial 2-stroke engine possibly breathe? Well, each of the five positive-displacement superchargers which are built into the engine case feeds one pair of cylinders.
So, that's all well and good. But... what kind of airplane would you possibly want to install a 500cc radial engine made out of moped parts and fitted with five tiny superchargers into?
None at all. This engine is going onto a motorcycle.
Consider the massive difference between that (obliviously) slow speed impact versus the (alleged**) V of the planes striking the WTC.
Big **** Difference! .

**Two studies have analyzed the speed of the planes, one by the Federal Aviation Administration in consultation with the National Transportation Safety Board and the other by Eduardo Kausel, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Both found that United Airlines Flight 175, which hit the south tower at 9:02 a.m., was traveling significantly faster than American Airlines Flight 11, which hit the north tower at approximately 8:46 a.m.
The government's calculations put the speed of the first plane at 494 mph, and the second at 586 mph. The MIT analysis determined the first plane was traveling 429 mph, and the second 537 mph, The Times said.
But 100% of commercial airplane construction is either carbon fiber or aluminum foil.
It's a 9/11 truther thing. Not sure the exact term for this specific fallacy, kinda of a gaslit-strawman, I guess.
They're trying to convince people in the present day that, at one time long ago, the folks who believed the conventional narrative (that two airplanes crashed into WTC1 and WTC2, causing them to collapse) also believed that airplane wings could sever the steel beams which formed the outer skirt of the buildings.
At any rate, this is the pictures thread, not the 9/11 conspiracy thread.
