A3 Paper
ISO 216 is an International Organization for Standardization, international standard for paper sizes, used around the world except in North America and parts of Latin America. The standard defines the "A", "B" and "C" series of paper sizes, which includes the A4, the most commonly available paper size worldwide. Two supplementary standards, ISO 217 and ISO 269, define related paper sizes; the ISO 269 "C" series is commonly listed alongside the A and B sizes. All ISO 216, ISO 217 and ISO 269 paper sizes (except some envelopes) have the same aspect ratio, square root of 2, , within rounding to millimetres. This ratio has the unique property that when cut or folded in half widthways, the halves also have the same aspect ratio. Each ISO paper size is one half of the area of the next larger size in the same series. Dimensions of A, B and C series History The oldest known mention of the advantages of basing a paper size on an aspect ratio of \sqrt is found in a letter writ ...

A-3 Skywarrior
The Douglas A-3 Skywarrior is a jet propulsion, jet-powered strategic bomber that was developed and produced by the Douglas Aircraft Company. It was designed by Douglas on behalf of the United States Navy, which sought a aircraft carrier, carrier-capable strategic bomber. In July 1949, Douglas was awarded the contract to produce its design, having bested eight other aircraft companies' submissions. Unlike rival designs, which had aimed for a maximum take-off weight, the Skywarrior was developed for a take-off weight, facilitating its use from the navy's existing s. Large portions of the aircraft were produced by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation, including its early Westinghouse J40 turbojet engines, which failed to meet promises and were replaced by the rival Pratt & Whitney J57 engine by mid-1953. On 28 October 1952, the prototype ''XA3D-1'' performed the type's maiden flight. On 31 March 1956, the Skywarrior entered squadron service with the Navy. Initially used in the ...

Curtiss Falcon
The Curtiss Falcon was a family of military biplane aircraft built by the American aircraft manufacturer Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company during the 1920s. Most saw service as part of the United States Army Air Corps as observation aircraft with the designations O-1 and O-11, or as the attack aircraft designated the A-3 Falcon. United States Navy, U.S. Navy variants were used initially as fighter-bombers with the designation F8C Falcon, then as the first United States Marine Corps, U.S. Marine Corps dive bombers with the name Helldiver. Two later generations of Curtiss dive-bombers were also named Curtiss Helldiver (other), Helldiver. The type was introduced in 1925 and saw first-line service in the United States until 1934. Curtiss Falcons fought in the Constitutionalist Revolution of 1932 in Brazil, used by the forces of São Paulo. Design and development The Falcon XO-1 prototype was evaluated by the USAAC along with eleven other prototypes in 1924 and the Dougl ...

LNER Gresley Classes A1 And A3
The London and North Eastern Railway Gresley Classes A1 and A3 were "Pacific" steam locomotives designed by Nigel Gresley for passenger work. They were initially intended for use on the Great Northern Railway (Great Britain), Great Northern Railway (GNR), but became a standard design on the London and North Eastern Railway after the Railways Act 1921, amalgamation of 1923. The change in class designation from A1 to A3 reflected the fitting to the same chassis of a higher pressure boiler with a greater superheater, superheating surface and a small reduction in cylinder diameter, leading to an increase in locomotive weight and power. Eventually all bar one of the A1 locomotives were rebuilt in this way, but no. 4470 was completely rebuilt as a LNER Thompson Class A1/1, Class A1/1. The List of LNER Class A1/A3 locomotives, names for the locomotives came from a variety of sources. The first, ''GNR Class A1 1470 Great Northern, Great Northern'', was named after its parent company. O ...

Bavarian A III
The Bavarian A III 2-2-2 engines were German steam locomotives in service with the Royal Bavarian State Railways (''Königlich Bayerische Staatsbahn''). Once again these engines were used to experiment with a short boiler and Meyer expansion valve gear. Because the additional increase in size of the heating area could not be improved by installing extra tubes, two of each were rebuilt to 0-4-2 and 0-6-2 locomotives. Otherwise their construction was the same as the Class A II engines. They were equipped with 2 T 4.2 and, following the rebuild, 2 T 5 tenders. See also * List of Bavarian locomotives and railbuses This List covers the locomotives and railbuses of the Bavarian railways, excluding those of the Palatinate (region), Palatinate (''Pfalz'').

A-3 Lifeboat
The A-3 lifeboat was an airborne lifeboat developed by the EDO Corporation in 1947 for the United States Air Force (USAF) as a successor to the Higgins Industries A-1 lifeboat. The A-3 lifeboat was a key element of "Dumbo" rescue flights of the 1950s. Specifications EDO built the lifeboat of aluminum alloy to be carried by the SB-29 Super Dumbo performing air-sea rescue duties during the Korean War. Approximately 100 of these lifeboats were built—their serial numbers began at 501 and continued in sequence. The A-3 lifeboat was long and it weighed when fully loaded and ready for attachment to the aircraft. The A-3 lifeboat could rescue 15 people. It was powered by a four-cylinder four-stroke Meteor 20 gasoline engine made by the Red Wing Motor Company. With an Ailsa Craig propeller it was expected to give a speed of under calm water conditions. Nearly of fuel were on board. The airborne lifeboat was dropped from the SB-29 on a single parachute.
