At 0.99 mach wouldn't you exceed mach 1 in a dive? Also isn't hovering right on the edge of the sound barrier dangerous?

There've already been concepts like is and none have been successful. Wy spend $5-7m when you can get an L-39th for 500k? Yea..... L39 can go Mach 0.8 at best.

But whether in a Mig 21 or Saker S-1, what would stop you from flying over the pacific for 200 miles (out of US territorial waters, hitting Mach 1.1 over international waters, then slow back down to Mach .99 to re-enter US Airspace?

The wave drag builds rapidly to astronomical magnitudes and the airplane would shortly use up all its fuel, if it had enough thrust to maintain that mach number. It's better to push through. I suspect speed stability would be an interesting problem. At mach numbers less than 1, the surface of the airframe will have supersonic flow due to the local flow speeds greater than the free stream speed (speed of the airplane). |

Mig 21s it was said exceeded mach 2 rarely, stories I read said it would need a total engine overhaul or new engine nearly every time it did. Also I am fairly certain pissant civis are not allowed to go supersonic over CONUS even if they could. If you buy a Mig 21 buy a few spare engines. This dream airplane won't cruise at M=0.99, either. There's a reason for that, the same reason no one else cruises there. Hehe. |

There's a thin line between "a couple" and "pretty many", and I don't care enough to dig up the airplane's history. Bede was working on the BD-10 and his other two new pusher projects at Spirit of St. Louis airport. I was down there a few times to see how the airplane was put together. The inlet was scaled from T-38 geometry. The wing skins were honeycomb panels with skins only on the outer moldline side; . Load paths at the wing roots were disturbing. Ol' Jim was reveling in the attention and interest during that period. For a while. As things progressed, he moved to smaller quarters at Spirit, and then moved to Alton altogether before skedaddling out of town. Quoted:

That would take care of getting rid of the huge cavity that the original engine had occupied, and allow adding the new structure for attaching the new engines. The rest of the fuselage is at least modified (nose redone, engine intakes removed). The F-86 fuselage would be left with a huge cavity from nose to tail, if the original engine was removed and two engines added externally, because the engine intake was at the front of the nose. The T-33's engine intakes were much farther back, and the weaker engine probably needed less air (smaller intakes). ETA: Might be less work to change a Lear 24 to a two seat tandem cockpit. Replacement parts would be easier to find, upgrades are available, and you'd be starting with a newer design. |

Not sure exactly what the rolling eyes are directed at. In case my sarcasm meter is off... The engine is a fixed weight, and my understanding is that on the T-33 and F-86, the engine is well aft of the CG. A fuel tank is a variable weight, so not a good thing to have too far from the CG. As for the Lear 24 comment, it was a comparison to the work that would be involved. Rather than having to redo the majority of the fuselage structure, and get into moving powerplant systems around, it would be mainly limited to redoing the fuselage structure forward of the wing. Still quite a bit of structural work, and messing with the control, electrical, instrumentation, and pressurization systems, but likely less work than the Skyfox/T-33 mod. |

It's aimed at every poster that believes modifying an existing airframe or resurrecting a large, complicated airplane is no more difficult than making and drawing "plans" and slathering some parts together as if it's some sort of hot rod for cruising the beach.
A casual look at the Sky Fox reveals that the only obvious airframe parts retained from a T-33 is the canopy, and maybe the cockpit structure between the forward bulkhead and the rear seat bulkhead. Now, retaining other components such as the landing gear or even the control sticks, rudder pedals, bellcranks, and so on go a long way to completing an airplane (when the airframe structure is complete, only 90% of the work remains), but all of that has to be incorporated to function in the new airplane, and they probably won't without massive modifications. The idea of converting a Lear to tandem seating is too laughable for comment. Same with hanging two engines on the outside of the fuselage of an F-86; that one isn't even remotely clever. |

The MiG-21, if I recall, is the most common fighter in the world... Parts are still made and will be for some time. Designed to be maintained by illiterate retards... So I might have a chance of understanding at least some of its PMCS. Still being upgraded for use in other nations... Could probably get some pretty sleek avionics upgrades from, say, Poland. If one were buying a jet to serve the role of a flying sportscar... The MiG-21 would actually be a damn good choice... Cheap and simple enough you might actually be able to upkeep it...

Ouch. One of those snakes that can swallow a cow comes to mind. Is there a such thing as reverse area rule? For ingomsg3, using two engines inside a roundish fuselage like that would not make sense even if you used two engines small enough to fit because it's a poor use of internal space. This lost cross sectional area is not only wasteful in terms of structure, it makes the design less efficient because the engines' total cross sectional area becomes smaller, which means that the exhaust velocities have to be higher to provide the same thrust, reducing fuel economy. It is possible and often done to replace one engine with a more powerful/efficient one of similar size and weight, but even this requires a substantial amount of work. If you want two engines, you need to design the fuselage around them, either placing them side by side (F-4) or if you're feeling creative, one on top of the other (Lightning.) You usually end up with a flatter shape than the F-86's rounder fuselage cross section. |
