Procedure Handbook for Aircraft Stress Analysis.

Perfect scanned copy. 351 pages scanned as High resolution TIF images and then digitally cleaned page by page.  This extremely detailed handbook written by Willis Nye, Dale Hamilton and James Eames details the Stress analysis of aircraft components and materials. Unlike my other manuals this a private publication (long past its copyright period). Packed with invaluable data including very detailed graphs and tabulated data. (See detailed Contents and Tables List below).  Manual printed in 1940 by Aviation Press San Francisco, California. Also included on the CD is an PDF version of the handbook for easy browsing (Adobe Reader 7.0 supplied on the CD). Comes in a nicely printed Jewel case. See my other auctions for more vintage aircraft and engine manuals.

GM's next eco-concept car

Tue, 03 Jul 2007

By Ben Oliver Motor Industry 03 July 2007 06:17 General Motors will unveil a European concept car built on its radical new E-Flex platform at September’s Frankfurt Motor Show. The concept will feature radical styling, with a diesel engine acting as a generator for the concept’s electric motor. And General Motors is believed to be collaborating with urban electric scooter manufacturer Segway; the unnamed concept may be able to carry one or more of the £4000, gyroscope-controlled devices for use in town once you’ve parked.

Bentley slaps on a 5 per cent price hike for UK Cars

Thu, 26 Feb 2009

Bentley are raising UK Car Prices by 5% from 1st April 2009 I’m sure all us Brits still think of Bentley as a good old British Car Producer. But when we pause and think we remember that they are in fact part of VW, and therefore very much a European car maker. Which explains why, despite the cars being bolted together here, Bentley feels the need to put UK Car prices up by 5% from 31st March, due to the current weakness of Sterling.

'Grid Autosport' finds its motorsports roots

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

Video-game maker Codemasters is back in the news today, this time with its next driving game for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. The trailer for “Grid Autosport” appeared on YouTube on Tuesday, and it looks like the company is going back to its beginnings. From the trailer and interviews at videogamer.com, we can see that nearly every shot features real racetracks and race cars.
