  5. Mike Arnold's AR-5 up close... a slideshow from stills I took when we delivered the world record breaking (officially 213.18 M.P.H.) AR-5 to the Hiller Air Museum in San Carlos, Ca. on April 9th 2001 (where it still resides-)

  7. Mike Arnold visits Dennis Sanders and Dreadnought pt1;
  8. - canopy, exhaust stub and laminar flow are discussed - Alex visited Crockett in 1993 and this movie just never got made. Mike isn't here to edit it down so I left it largely unedited because I really don't know which part any one person might want to see - more to come! Please let me know how you like it in the comments...

  10. Mike had to alter the shape of the exhaust to fit inside the cowling, so the engine wasn't even getting the stock 65 H.P.!!
  11. Mike and I talked a lot about this when he was writing this article in Sport Aviation. Sorry I had to borrow so much from our older movies - and everybody else - REMEMBER! - "Area Rule for supersonic - Arnold Rule for subsonic"
  12. Howdy, Folks! This is the first of my series on British fighters of the World War...
