WikiProject Aircraft
A WikiProject, or Wikiproject, is a Wikimedia movement affinity group for contributors with shared goals. WikiProjects are prevalent within the largest wiki, Wikipedia, and exist to varying degrees within sister projects such as Wiktionary, Wikiquote, Wikidata, and Wikisource. They also exist in different languages, and translation of articles is a form of their collaboration. During the COVID-19 pandemic, CBS News noted the role of Wikipedia's WikiProject Medicine in maintaining the accuracy of articles related to the disease. Another WikiProject that has drawn attention is WikiProject Women Scientists, which was profiled by '' Smithsonian'' for its efforts to improve coverage of women scientists which the profile noted had "helped increase the number of female scientists on Wikipedia from around 1,600 to over 5,000". On Wikipedia Some Wikipedia WikiProjects are substantial enough to engage in cooperative activities with outside organizations relevant to the field at issue. For e ...

Udet U
Ernst Udet (26 April 1896 – 17 November 1941) was a German pilot during World War I and a ''Luftwaffe'' Colonel-General (''Generaloberst'') during World War II. Udet joined the Imperial German Air Service at the age of 19, and eventually became a notable flying ace of World War I, scoring 62 confirmed victories by the end of his life. The highest scoring German fighter pilot to survive that war, and the second-highest scoring after Manfred von Richthofen, his commander in the Flying Circus, Udet rose to become a squadron commander under Richthofen, and later under Hermann Göring. Udet spent the 1920s and early 1930s as a stunt pilot, international barnstormer, light aircraft manufacturer, and playboy. In 1933, Udet joined the Nazi Party and became involved in the early development of the ''Luftwaffe'', where he was appointed director of research and development. Influential in the adoption of dive bombing techniques as well as the Stuka dive bomber, by 1939 Udet had ris ...

Silesia S-4
The Silesia S-4 was a Polish, low-power parasol wing aircraft built in 1925. After an engine change and airframe modifications it became one of the Silesian Aeroclubs fleet. It was lost in a take-off accident in 1931 and was the last Silesia aircraft to fly. Design and development Three brothers, Edward, Paul and Wojciech Sopora set up an aircraft-building workshop in 1923 at Chorzów, calling it the Pierwsza Śląska Fabryka Samolotów (First Silesian Aircraft Factory). Their first product was the 1923 Silesia S-3. Though their next aircraft, the 1925 Silesia S-4, was also a low-powered, single seat monoplane like the S-3, It was a parasol wing type of more refined design. The wing, with a rectangular plan and a thin aerofoil section, was a one piece, wooden structure built around two spars and fabric-covered. It was braced on each side with a parallel pair of struts to the spars from the lower fuselage longerons. An unusual pyramid of long struts on each side from the mid an ...

Silesia S-3
The Silesia S-3 was the first design from the Polish Sopora brothers to fly. It was a low power, single seat, high wing light aircraft. Only one was built and its flying time was limited. Design and development Three brothers, Edward, Paul and Wojciech Sopora set up an aircraft-building workshop in 1923 at Chorzów, calling it the Pierwsza Śląska Fabryka Samolotów (First Silesian Aircraft Factory). Their first product was a light, low-powered, high wing monoplane, the Silesia S-3. Its wood-framed, thin section wing was in two parts joined to the upper fuselage longerons and was fabric covered. It was entirely wire-braced from a high, central cabane above the fuselage and a short cabane from its underside. The C-3 was powered by a Haacke HFM-2, a flat-twin mounted with its cylinders projecting outside the fuselage for cooling. Behind the engine the fuselage was flat-sided, with a steel-tube frame of rectangular section and fabric covering. The single, open cockpit was behi ...

Gabriel P 5
The Gabriel P 5 was the first nationally developed aircraft to fly in Poland after it became independent in 1918. It was an amateur-built, low-powered, single seat parasol wing machine. Only one was completed. Design and development Brothers Pawel and Jan Gabriel became interested in aviation in their youth and by 1913 had built and tried to fly four gliders. During the later part of World War I they worked in the Rumpler factory, initially in the repair department. Later Pawel later joined the design team and Jan learned to fly. At the end of the war they returned to Poland and in 1920 began the design of their first powered aircraft, the P 5, which consciously followed the layout of the Fokker D.VIII. Their father owned a furniture factory in Bydgoszcz and provided them with space and tools. The P 5 had an approximately rectangular plan wing apart from blunted tips and was built in one piece around twin spars with plywood covering. The ailerons were fabric covered. Original ...
