	PORTALAND BRIDGE SCRAPER RECLAIMERS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		This machine recovers material from the sides of the stockpile and because he boom can be lifted has the advantage of being able to move to any one of the in-line row of stockpiles in any sequence to reclaim material.
		The movement of the bridge reclaimer is restricted between adjacent stockpiles as the reclaim boom cannot be lifted and traps the reclaimer between stockpiles.
		With the reclaim boom in the horizontal position the unit operates as a bridge reclaimer recovering material from the end of the stockpile.

		The twin shaft boom is long enough to maintain an average 145 meters between the lower mid-deck of the Hotel Wing and the floating Hub Core (3).
		(4) Twin elevator shaft booms, (7) trusswork-free central bay, (3) Rendezvous Vestibule is the stubby cylindrical base section attached to the hub core (6) "North" ("Neptune-ward") of the elevator shafts (depending on orientation) along the axis of rotation.
		A flare shield 2 meters thick and 60 feet in diameter sunward of the twin booms and opposite (floating with) the hub/transfer vestibule (= storm shelter) and staff cabins, made of compacted and sintered lunar regolith would weigh over 3,000 tons and be slow rotating.

		At around the same time Bowlus began work on a twin boom flying-wing glider for military transport work In order to test his design he began work on a half-scale proof-of-concept flying model, forming the Airborne Transport Company in Los Angeles, California for the purpose.
		The XCG-16A was an all-wood twin boom military transport glider of 91ft 10in span, featuring an aerofoil-sectioned lifting fuselage between the booms in which either cargo or troops could be carried in two 16ft x 7ft compartments.
		A single fin and rudder was mounted on the tailplane between the booms.

		A dummy stubmast was used just to try everything out on the ground before raising the boom up for bolting onto the real submast which with a 24 foot overall length of boom is nearly 13 feet off the ground with the mast cranked over.
		The remainder of the elements (the longest ones) were then attached to the boom and the rear end shorting stub fastened before the whole assembly was winched up into position.
		All the boom and element junctions which are conductive have graphite powder embedded in WD40 in them in order to expell salt air and to ensure conductivity.

	Caproni Ca.4 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It shared the unusual layout of the Caproni Ca.3, being a twin-boom aircraft with one pusher engine at the rear of a central nacelle and two tractor engines in front of twin booms.
		The most distinguishing feature of the new plane was, that it was built in a rare triplane layout, instead of the more common biplane.
		Two rear gunners were positioned in each boom behind the center wing.

		The earliest recorded homesteader in Twin Yucca was Silas Graham, circa 1900, who, upon digging a well, claimed it was drier on the bottom than on the top.
		Twin Yucca was a settled community, the last census placing fifty percent of it's population over the age of sixty.
		As the Baby Boom generation ages, this crisis will reach epic proportions, or so the Twin Yucca newspaper said in an article published one month after the closing of the only nursing facility in, or near, Twin Yucca.

	Conception, Pregnancy, Birth and Baby ~ BellyBelly Forums :: Lots of twins (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		One year at school there were 2 sets of twins in the same grade, which probably doesnt sound like alot, but when there were only 18 kids in total in the grade its kinda a high proportion.
		Genetically, only fraternal twins are hereditory, as they are two eggs, identicals are a "freak of nature" and despite all the research done into them, they are unable to find a cause!
		My SIL who is a twin was told she had a 70% chance of having a multiple birth first time, and after her first set a 90% chance again - she did.

	OV-10 Bronco
		Visually, it has a central nacelle containing pilots and cargo, and twin booms containing twin turboprop engines.
		The visually-distinctive item of the aircraft is the combination of the twin booms, with the horizontal stabilizer that connects them.
		The North Vietnamese nickname for a Bronco was "pig sty," perhaps because it resembled a fenced enclosure.

	0-2A
		Designed and manufactured by the Cessna Aircraft Company, the aircraft is an all-metal, twin engine, strut-braced, high wing monoplane.
		Distinguishable features are two engines placed in tandem on the fuselage center-line, a twin-boom-supported empennage, and a retractable tricycle landing gear.
		In some cases, portions of wings and tails were shot away; in one instance the left tail boom was completely severed, but the pilot was able to return to a friendly airfield.

	Schweizer RU-38B Twin Condor
		It offers by incorporating twin turbine engines, twin tailbooms, a tricycle landing gear, a larger cockpit, higher useful loads and gross weight, and more payload capacity to achieve a significantly upgraded capability.
		The most important differences between the RU-38B and the SA 2-37A are the addition of twin turbine engines in a pusher-puller configuration; additional payload weight and volume; and a larger crew compartment.
		By equipping the RU-38B with twin, turbo-charged engines and a modular payload concept, the same basic airframe can be adapted for low altitude “quiet” reconnaissance or high altitude standoff surveillance roles.

		It is a pity that the cockpit canopy was one piece as I had purchased the Eduard etched brass aftermarket set for the kit and all the extra work that was going to go into the cockpit would not be seen.
		The twin tail booms attach well to the wings, with only a small amount of filler required to eliminate the join line.
		I attached the twin booms first and attached the horizontal centre tail whilst the booms could still be adjusted.

		It was quickly made obsolete by newer, more modern designs, but many consider this plane to be a classic, with its smooth lines, built around the big Jacob radial engine.
		The Cessna 337 is easily recognized by its distinctive twin boom tails and twin inline push/pull engines.
		By putting both engines on the center line, Cessna wanted twin engine performance without the disadvantages normally associated with twin engine aircraft.

		There is not room in the boom with retracts to bring the exhaust through the gear bay with the servos......There are three servos in each boom for engine, rudder, and elevator, not to mention the fuel tanks.
		These twin fuselage planes are a blast to fly and flew both of mine this weekend.
		The A-26 will snap roll at the loss of an engine as will most twins and of course worse on a warbird, but is relatively easy to correct due to the large rudder.....you do fly with rudder don't you?.....no,,,,,,learn.....sorry on squeaky soap box again.

		Nowadays, the department's laboratory is conducting various experiments to study the effects on bio and electromagnetic fields on the natural process of cell division during meiosis.
		Although this is still an ongoing research, one thing has already been determined: the lower the mammalian class, the higher is the chance for twins to be born.In 2004 there's been a real "twin boom" in the Russian town of Kirov and scientists still have no idea as to how to approach the matter.
		In the meantime, the entire array of twins and triplets in the region is considered to be mere coincidence.

		From this asymmetric port cockpit, several feet removed from the center of thrust, test pilots carefully evaluated the effects upon their own performance and that of the aircraft in various maneuvers.
		The experiment revealed no adverse effects, and although the Twin Mustang arrived too late for World War II, it joined the Air Force as an escort fighter and night fighter, and went on to a successful combat career in the Korean War.
		To cut down on drag, the fuselage was also made as narrow as possible, leaving barely enough frontal area for the pilot and a pair of turbojet engines.

	Might Have Beens: Italian Twin-Engined Fighters, 1943
		Since further power would not be immediately forthcoming—the larger displacement DB.603 was not yet available to the Italians—drag reduction seemed the only course open to the designers.
		Keeping the same engines and the same, basic wing and tail design, the designers abandoned the central gondola and placed the crew in a redesigned port tail boom.
		They installed two 20-mm MG.151 cannon in the leading edge of a now substantially narrower center section, one MG.151 between the cylinder blocks of the starboard engine, firing through the airscrew hub, and two synchronized, 12.7-mm, Breda-SAFAT machine guns under each engine.

	=X=(_)=X= Futuramic, Streamlined Aircraft Receives Design Patent
		During American aviation's rough-and-tumble "golden age" over a half century ago, it was not uncommon to seek such protection covering an aircraft's form, instead of from a utility patent protecting a process or mechanism.
		For we learn that, years hence, other manufacturers went far beyond merely claiming Shelton's twin boom idea as public domain.
		All three had twin-engines, twin tail booms and short, streamlined central fuselage pods.

		A tricycle landing gear was fitted, with the nosewheel retracting into the fuselage and the mainwheels retracting into the booms.
		The center wing section was designed around the newly-developed NACA "ducted wing", in which the airflow was taken in via narrow slots in the wing leading edge and directed over the oil and coolant radiators and then to the intercoolers and eventually fed into the engine via ducts in the wing trailing edge.
		Armament was changed to a pair of 37-mm T-12/T-13 cannon with 60 rpg and twin 0.50-in M2 machine guns with 500 rpg, all mounted in the nose.
