Hoffmann H38 Observer
__NOTOC__ The H38 Observer is an experimental design for an observation aircraft designed by Wolf Hoffmann, in Austria, in the early 1980s. Design and development At ILA 1984 in Hanover Wolf Hoffmann presented a mock-up for a new project based on the Hoffmann Dimona motor-glider, called Hoffmann Visonar, before being renamed.Aero-Revue 7/84, p.15 The Observer's design aim was long endurance with minimal fuel burn, combined with extremely good vision from the cockpit. To obtain this, the conventional tractor propeller is driven by a mid-mounted engine placed behind the two side-by-side seats. This location for the power-plant was intended to leave the nose clear of obstruction. Since the canopy glazing extends to the crew's feet, vision was expected to be far better than from a conventional aircraft, and not far from that from some helicopters. The wings, rear fuselage and T-tail were identical to those of the Dimona, but with wing span increased. A choice of two engine op ...

Wolf Hoffmann Flugzeugbau
The wolf (''Canis lupus''; : wolves), also known as the gray wolf or grey wolf, is a large canine native to Eurasia and North America. More than thirty subspecies of ''Canis lupus'' have been recognized, and gray wolves, as popularly understood, comprise wild subspecies. The wolf is the largest extant member of the family Canidae. It is also distinguished from other '' Canis'' species by its less pointed ears and muzzle, as well as a shorter torso and a longer tail. The wolf is nonetheless related closely enough to smaller ''Canis'' species, such as the coyote and the golden jackal, to produce fertile hybrids with them. The banded fur of a wolf is usually mottled white, brown, gray, and black, although subspecies in the arctic region may be nearly all white. Of all members of the genus ''Canis'', the wolf is most specialized for cooperative game hunting as demonstrated by its physical adaptations to tackling large prey, its more social nature, and its highly adva ...

The Diamond HK36 Super Dimona is an extensive family of Austrian low-wing, T-tailed, two-seat motor gliders that were designed by Wolf Hoffmann and currently produced by Diamond Aircraft Industries.Said, Bob: ''1983 Sailplane Directory, Soaring Magazine'', page 121. Soaring Society of America, November 1983. USPS 499-920 Design and development The series started with the Hoffmann H36 Dimona, a touring motorglider introduced in the early 1980s. The aircraft were initially produced by Hoffmann Flugzeugbau, which became HOAC Flugzeugwerk and later Diamond Aircraft Industries. Built entirely from fibreglass, the H36 family all use a Wortmann FX 63-137 airfoil. The wings feature top-surface Schempp-Hirth-style airbrakes. Optionally, the wings can be folded by two people in a few minutes to allow storage. The original H36 has wings, while the later members of the family added slightly greater span. The H36 offers a 27:1 glide ratio, while later variants improved that by o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
