mc_smile Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Great pictures inded. But if ED is not modelling F-22 than what for?..

Beaker_VBA Posted December 2, 2008 Posted December 2, 2008 ^^^^^^ That's more like it! The HUD in h00t74's isn't representative of the current cockpit setup. It looks like it's either just part of that simulator setup, or an older (test) Block. "A pilot lives in a world of perfection, or not at all." -Richard S. Drury http://www.virtualblueangels.net

RvETito Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 What's wrong with this canopy? "See, to me that's a stupid instrument. It tells what your angle of attack is. If you don't know you shouldn't be flying." - Chuck Yeager, from the back seat of F-15D at age 89. =RvE=
Peyoteros Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 What's wrong with this canopy? Isn't that is the pilot who was traped in F22 and rescue had to cut him loose ? :D "Eagle Dynamics" - simulating human madness since 1991 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] ۞ ۞
RvETito Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 Nope, this is another one. "See, to me that's a stupid instrument. It tells what your angle of attack is. If you don't know you shouldn't be flying." - Chuck Yeager, from the back seat of F-15D at age 89. =RvE=
Mugatu Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 Looks like the stealth coating has come off?! What's wrong with this canopy?
Beaker_VBA Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 yeah, some of the canopy coating is worn off. Probably intentionally. "A pilot lives in a world of perfection, or not at all." -Richard S. Drury http://www.virtualblueangels.net
RvETito Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 Given that it costs over 200 000 $ I have no clue what kind of technolgy is used there but that looks exactly like layers unglue for ordinary multilayered aircraft glass. Usualy cuased by thermal stresses for heated windshields when the heating is ON on ground or at high outside temperature. "See, to me that's a stupid instrument.

Cutaway Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 Isn't that is the pilot who was traped in F22 and rescue had to cut him loose ? :D I thought that, Looks loke they glued the canopy back with RAM coated superglue for budgetary reasons as it is expensive:D DILLIGAF KB Wilson.

RvEYoda Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 Fighter pilot's dream... fly raptor at work S = SPARSE(m,n) abbreviates SPARSE([],[],[],m,n,0). This generates the ultimate sparse matrix, an m-by-n all zero matrix. - Matlab help on 'sparse'

The canopy is fabricated from one single sheet of polycarbonate that's heated up close to a liquid and draped over a mould if I remember correctly. The yellow tint is ITO. ITO in thick layers amplifies and refracts yellow light in the visible spectrum giving the Raptor's canopy its trademark rich yellow colour. The coating of ITO is applied to the inside of the canopy on the Raptor and not on the exterior eliminating wear and tear to the coating. It's worth noting that when ITO is applied in thin layers it is only visible in the infrared spectrum making it invisible to the human eye. Just because you cant see the trademark yellow tint of ITO on the Raptor's canopy in that picture it doesn't mean that it's not there. http://www.evaporatedcoatings.com/trans.htm http://www.evaporatedcoatings.com/969.htm http://www.evaporatedcoatings.com/949.htm [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
RvETito Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 I'm sure it's a Startrek technology but the question what is that deffect is still valid. "See, to me that's a stupid instrument.
