The editors of Computer Gaming World presented Flight Simulator 2004 with their 2003 "Flight Simulation of the Year" award. They wrote, "All the details fall together in FS2004: A Century of Flight, the first release in this venerable series that convincingly re-creates the entire flying experience."
This is the case on many large aircraft such as the 747, C-17, KC-10, etc. If you are on an aircraft and you hear the engines increasing in power after landing, it is usually because the thrust reversers are deployed. The engines are not actually spinning in reverse, as the term may lead you to believe.
ADC (from "Aircraft Disposal Company") [3] bought 35,000 war-surplus engines in 1920. Initially produced engines from Renault 70 hp spares. ADC Cirrus. ADC Airdisco; ADC Cirrus; ADC Nimbus, development of Siddeley Puma; ADC Airsix, air-cooled version of Nimbus. Not put into use; ADC BR2 [1] ADC Viper [1] ADC Airdisco-Renault [1]
Turbofan engines with a bypass ratio of less than 2 (usually less than 1). These engines were commonly used on narrow body jet airliners of the 1960s and 1970s, some business jets from the same time period, and on modern fighter aircraft.
Radial aircraft engines had from three to 28 cylinders; examples include the small Kinner B-5 and the large Pratt & Whitney R-4360. Larger examples were built as multiple rows. As each row contains an odd number of cylinders, to give an even firing sequence for a four-stroke engine, an even number indicates a two- or four-row engine.
Model number Odd numbers for the United States Air Force and even numbers for the United States Navy. For example, the TF39-GE-1C is a Turbofan built by General Electric and was an Air Force model, which has powered the Lockheed C-5 Galaxy and the Pratt & Whitney TF30-P-414A is a turbofan built by Pratt & Whitney and was a Navy model, which has powered the Grumman F-14A Tomcat.
