The Saab 91 Safir (Swedish for sapphire) is a three (91A, B, B-2) or four (91C, D) seater, single engine trainer aircraft. The Safir was built by Saab AB in Linköping, Sweden (203 aircraft) and by '' De Schelde'' in Dordrecht, Netherlands (120 aircraft). Design and development Development of the Safir began in 1944 as part of a plan to compensate for reductions in orders for military aircraft when the Second World War finally ended. Three major civil programmes were planned, the Type 90 Scandia airliner, the Type 91 Safir light aircraft and the Saab 92 motor car. The Safir was designed by Anders J.

Ninety-One (solitaire)
Ninety-One is a solitaire card game which is played using a deck of playing cards. The object of this game is to move cards so the top cards of the piles total to 91, hence the name.Glenn, Jim and Denton, Carey. ''The Treasury of Family Games'' (page 108). Reader's Digest, 2003 () Rules Thirteen piles of four cards each are dealt. Only one card can be moved at a time and the top cards of the piles are ones that are counted. Cards are even transferred without any regard to suit or value. Spot cards (cards from ace to ten) are taken at their face value, while jacks are valued at 11, queens at 12, and kings at 13. The game is won when the top cards of the thirteen piles have a total value of 91. The easiest combination to obtain is a sequence of thirteen cards from ace to king (91=1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13). But there are many other combinations that add up to 91, such as four kings, four aces, three fives, and two tens for instance (91=13*4+1*4+3*5+10*2=52+4+15+20). It is up to ...
