Tribute. I just found out about the passing of Mike Badrocke on 9/24/2024 at 9:58 am Venezuela time.
I modestly confess that his work inspired me a lot, remember I am self-taught in this type of drawings that I do more out of passion for aviation than for economic benefits. Thank you Mike for your work and teachings. Rest in peace knowing that you were the light that illuminated a path for many followers.
A life with a long and prolific work, full of achievements shared through unpublished images in each of his works, the development of great techniques to make his iconic images in his spectacular works.

Thanks 10kDA for this contribution, it allows me to identify and place the name and profiles in the schematic section.

You're welcome! I knew immediately what it was. A friend of my ex-wife had a Chrislea Super Ace in her family, and gave a presentation at a monthly meeting of my aviation club about the airplane and some of the family's flying adventures. Her father had something to do with the Chrislea company as well, as a sales agent or dealer as I recall.

 

This image depicts an early model which had the unconventional three-way control yoke and no rudder pedals. This was changed to conventional controls later in production. I had never seen the internal details of the wings before, and the rib structure with a gap in the middle is a feature I may use in a future project which has a fabric-covered wing and requires internal drag bracing. I will pass on the truss spars though.

VL Pyörremyrsky PM-1, designed & built in Finland. One aircraft was completed but very near the end of WWII and thus no additional aircraft were ordered. The fuselage from the pilot seat aft, the empennage, and the wings were made of wood.

A friend is restoring a AA-1C, a later model featuring aerodynamic refinements giving it more forgiving flying qualities. Simple, straightforward design and better performance than most 2-seaters of its timeframe.

I first learned about the Bede Bd-1 from an old Popular Mechanics magazine from 1964. I was amazed by the simplicity of the concept and the solutions that are still valid today. Many of its techniques were applied to other disciplines including F-1 and the GT category, without neglecting many other aircraft projects.

Cutaway NAMI-086 had excellent stylistic and engineering inclinations, but it did not go into production. The late 1950s and early 1960s were a time of rapid growth of the domestic automobile industry. Including the birth of several interesting prototypes created by the United States. Some of the developments were transferred to production models, in particular, the ZAZ-965. But the NAMI-086 minicar with its own name Sputnik was not lucky. But the design was very extraordinary.Author unknow

 

My comment: This small Coupe draws attention for its careful engineering and especially its suspension with longitudinal front torsion bars and transverse rear, hydraulic brakes and clutch, with interior ventilation in front of the windshield, it used a two-stroke air-cooled engine (something common at that time) in a transverse arrangement, gear lever on the floor and really austere seats, the fuel tank in an unsafe position in front and the spare wheel behind...?? It was not successful but its proposal was followed by other Soviet car manufacturers.

Curtiss-Bleecker SX-5-1 early cutaway helicopter prototype, shows us how complex was to develop a viable machine and all the research channels opened until finding the most practical configuration a large main rotor with a long shaft to drive another smaller anti-torque rotor, but it must be said that the greatest contribution came from Juan De la Cierva who discovered that to avoid all the problems of the rotor making it articulated due to the differences between the advancing and retreating blade, discovering this phenomenon gave rise to the viability of the "Autogyro" where the wings (rotors) spin freely moved first by the advance and then by the helicopter itself when connecting the engine and its transmission to the rotors.

Cutaway FMA IA-24 "Calquin", the light bomber designed in Argentina to meet the requirement of updating the Air Force, providing it with a modern and high-performance aircraft, but there was a problem the Second World War was in development, this imposed limitations on access to aeronautical materials, especially aluminum alloys, so it was decided in view of the success obtained by the deHavilland Mosquito that was built mostly of wood to use that material but wood available in the country would be used, so the same were selected and the pressed wood technique was used very similar to that used in Great Britain, a complete fuselage was built and it was seen that it was feasible to build it, there were delays during development, also lacked the Rolls Royce Merlin engines (the ideal ones for the project) so it was decided to use a more available engine the Pratt & Whitney 1830 of only 1050 hp used by the Douglas DC-3 / C-47, falling below what was expected, causing a decrease important in performance, even so they went ahead and the Calquin became part of the FAA bomber squadrons from 1946/48 to 1958, within the Argentine Air Force and during its service a large number of aircraft were lost with the loss of their crews which led to it being called the "Widow Maker", but it must be acknowledged that the FMA responded at a critical time to the absence of a modern aviation that had the capacity to project power with its own means, we must say that in those years the Jet era was beginning and Argentina was at the head in Latin America being the first country in the sub-continent to build the first jet, the "Pulqui I", unfortunately no example of the "Calquin" survived, this schematic section recreated speculatively in the absence of technical data by Motocar.
