mid-fuselage

Fuel for the engine was housed in two fuel tanks located mid-fuselage along with an oil tank.

The tapered, mass-balanced elevators are set at mid-fuselage.

Distribute heat where it is needed on the orbiter (mid-fuselage and aft sections) so that vital systems do not freeze in the cold of space.

The wings are mounted at mid-fuselage at an incidence of 0.5 and with 3 of dihedral.

The MA700 is conventional configuration, with a non-swept tapered wing mounted high on the mid-fuselage.

A small all-metal aircraft, the Sagittario 2 had its jet engine mounted in the nose, with the exhaust underneath the mid-fuselage.

The tailplane was attached at mid-fuselage and was rather rectangular, carrying split elevators which were horn balanced.

Each upper wing tip was supported over the fuselage by a N-form strut, one foot at mid-fuselage and the forward one higher.

Another two or three crewmembers occupied the nose and the mid-fuselage, as radio-operator, navigator and gunners.

The fuselage was corrugated-skinned and the empennage cantilever and conventional, with the tailplane set at mid-fuselage.

The tail was conventional, the tailplane set at mid-fuselage with straight swept leading edges and carrying elevators with trim tabs.

At the rear the tailplane was mounted at mid-fuselage under a long chord fin with a strongly swept leading edge, carrying a deep rudder.

The horizontal tail was mounted at mid-fuselage; the fin was straight edged and carried a full, rounded and horn balanced rudder.

Lamblin radiators were suspended beneath the fuselage and wire bracing was incorporated for the mid-fuselage mounted main wing and tailplane.

The D.7 had a fixed conventional undercarriage, with each mainwheel's leg placed vertically and mounted at mid-fuselage, assisted by a forward leaning strut attached under the nose.

But the P.119, with its technical problems, would never have been in a condition to show any capability as an operational aircraft, the only Axis mid-fuselage engined fighter was swiftly forgotten.

At the rear, the tailplane was mounted at mid-fuselage and the fin and deep rudder were straight tapered except near the keel and almost triangular above the fuselage.

The slightly tapered wing was mounted on tall faired parallel struts from the mid-fuselage, assisted by lighter diagonal struts and shorter, forward leaning supports from the upper fuselage.

Defensive armament consisted of light machine guns in five turrets - one in the nose, two on top of mid-fuselage, and one retractable "dustbin" under each wing between the engine nacelles.

The tail surfaces were conventional, steel framed and covered with a mixture of aluminium and fabric, with the tapered tailplane set at mid-fuselage with an angular fin and rudder above.

The trailing edge of the mainplane had a long fillet reaching almost to the curved leading edge of the broad tailplane; mounted at mid-fuselage, this had strong inboard sweep, decreasing outwards.

The fixed, divided type undercarriage had a main shock absorber leg, its upper end attached to a steel attachment near the mid-fuselage, allowing the wheel to remain nearly vertical during deflections, whilst providing a wide track.

The upper wing was braced to the fuselage with a cabane formed, on each side, by a forward parallel pair of struts from the mid-fuselage and a rear inverted V pair from the upper fuselage.
