Engines Exposed: What is a Flat-Plane Crankshaft?

Engines Exposed: What is a Flat-Plane Crankshaft?

"
Flat-plane engines
This term has become one of the buzz words of 2015 thanks to Ford’s stellar Voodoo V8 (covered previously by us) found in the Mustang GT350. With 526 horsepower and a soundtrack like this, it’s easy to see why it has been attracting attention. Rather than the loping burble of a traditional V8, the sound of a flat-plane engine is much tighter. It’s a tenor to the cross-plane V8’s baritone. However, flat-plane production engines are not a new concept, as Ferrari and Lotus have been using them for years.


The engine in the 458 Italia, for instance, is a flat-plane crank engine. That’s the real term as it describes the construction of the crankshaft of the engine. Before we dive into the technical details, opportunities, and limitations of flat-plane crankshaft engines, watch the short animation below that displays a flat-plane crankshaft and a cross-plane crankshaft, which is what most V8s use, in action ".

One of Europe's oldest trees is changing its sex


" You'd think after thousands of years on earth, the Fortingall Yew wouldn't be up for a major life change. Well, you're wrong.

This ancient Scottish tree -- estimated to be 5,000 years old and among Europe's oldest living organisms -- is changing sexes from male to female, according to Botanist Max Coleman with the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.

Yews are typically dioecious, meaning they are one sex or the other. Male trees have small cones that release clouds of pollen during breeding time, while female trees have bright red berries.

"It was, therefore, quite a surprise to me to find a group of three ripe red berries on the Fortingal yew this October when the rest of the tree was clearly male," Coleman wrote on the botanic garden's blog ".

Honda Once Made A Car Specifically For People To Bone In


Honda Once Made A Car Specifically For People To Bone In



In America, where eagles soar into the sky clutching dripping steaks, we normally think of Hondas as pretty safe, rational cars. Civics, Accords, CR-Vs, Odysseys... these are cars almost no one has ever described as “lurid.” And yet in Japan, Honda—sweet, rational Honda—once built a car for the primary, understood, from-the-factory purpose of getting laid in.

That car is the Honda S-MX, and while at first glance it just appears to be another late ‘90s/early 2000s Japanese space-maximizing city-cube-car, it actually seems to have been designed with a much more specific goal in mind: as a private space for young people to ****. Oh, it could also, if needed, take you to work or the grocery store.

Dramatic video captures the moment that passengers and the pilot of a small plane that had engine trouble were saved by a parachute that deployed from the aircraft.

The plane, carrying two passengers, was headed from Bentonville, Ark. to Waco, Texas, Tuesday when the pilot said there was a loss of oil pressure, according to Fayetteville Police Sgt. Craig Stout.

After that, pilot Bill Simon, 56, released the plane's emergency chute.

I believe that the parachute is either mandatory or it is going to be on single engine small aircraft in the U S----or it might be an option----.

I believe only ultra light type planes can support parachute but it should be mandatory on small planes specially for hobby / private pilots.

Zodiac Killer
Zodiac Killer is the nickname given to an unidentified serial killer who operated in northern California in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The Zodiac murdered victims in Benicia, Vallejo, Lake Berryessa, and San Franciscobetween December 1968 and October 1969. Four men and three women between the ages of 16 and 29 were targeted. The killer originated the name "Zodiac" in an August 7, 1969 letter to the local Bay Area press, which was just one in a series of taunting letters. These letters included four cryptograms (orciphers). Of the four cryptograms sent, only one has been definitively solved.[1]

Suspects have been named by law enforcement and amateur investigators, but no conclusive evidence has surfaced. In April 2004, the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) marked the case "inactive", yet re-opened the case at some point prior to March 2007.[2][3] The case also remains open in the city of Vallejo, as well as in Napa County and Solano County.[4] The California Department of Justice has maintained an open case file on the Zodiac murders since 1969.[5]
