HardTruth (OP) User ID: 317819 United States 10/26/2007 06:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have to wonder, if that was a real antigravity machine, why would it have a “tail”? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 317671The tail on helicopters hold a small rotor to stop the turning motion caused on the body by the main rotors (if you take them out, the helicopter starts spinning). I dont know man. Just thought this might be a possibility. Just looking for further intell. |

This is actually a great idea, thats why i'm sure it exists somewhere. it has a tail so it can still operate in public view even though its not needed. since the propeller on a typical heli is almost impossible to see or notice anyway, replacing the rotor with anti gravity makes it ideal for those emergencies when it has to be used where an average joe would see it.. but not think twice! |

The tail rotor and tail is to counter torque and for steering, without them it hinders and prevents auto-rotation, in the event of engine failure, leading to a crash. It further appears, in this photo, that the intake ducts/ cowling's are in place for a jet engine. It also appears that the exhaust port is in place, for a jet engine. It looks like a bad photo shop photo to me.......LEGION |

Unless we see a photo or even better, footage of this flying, all reasonable theories are fair game. Jet engine cowl, or some contraption to protect the rotary engine while a propeller is absent are all good. However, my biggest gripe is with the people claiming "this is photoshop." I've used photoshop extensively both professionally and personally over the past 10 years, and I let me tell you, if the photo (see link at top of thread )is photoshop, it's a flawless job, and of all the theories, it's at the top of the least likely. I would theorize this image could have been leaked with the intended purpose to be used as a red herring and for disinformation purposes. If this is truly anti-gravity (or a machine that generates it's own gravitational field and counters earth's own) your point about the tail rotor is likely irrelevant as it would probably then be for show, as a previous commenter mentioned. I know for a fact objects that defy the laws of thermodynamics do exist and are in our skies on a daily basis (often seen amidst the "chemtrails"/persistent contrails), the existing and growing plethora of documented cases and my own numerous personal experiences have given me this truth and I wouldn't waste the time to debate it. Having said that, my mind is open to your ideas and others, but definately not Photoshop, lol. |

Its really not antigravity in the cosmic sense. It is just another way to force air downward to propel the thing. Several companies have been working on high speed turbines as a propulsion system for years. The nice thing is it can land anywhere. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 222531I've seen this particular photo several years ago. It was, indeed, photo-shopped. Cool looking, though. And, the NOTAR heli-program, (no-tail-rotor), was being tested over a decade or two ago. Since that time there could be some very interesting 'copters flying around, maybe even very quitely/"invisible". |

Prof-Rabbit User ID: 148352 Australia 02/04/2008 02:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Tailless- Sikorsky S-69 Also known by the military designation XH-59A, the S-69 was part of the Advancing Blade Concept (ABC) program.[1] This Advancing Blade Concept system consisted of two rigid, contra-rotating rotors which made use of the aerodynamic lift of the advancing blades. At high speeds, the retreating blades were offloaded, as most of the load was supported by the advancing blades of both rotors and the penalty due to stall of the retreating blade was thus eliminated. This system did not even require a wing to be fitted for high speeds and to improve manoeuvrability, and also eliminated the need for an anti-torque rotor at the tail. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 363159 United States 02/04/2008 02:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OK boys and girls... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 319529there is a part of that heli in the picture that was cut trimmed and pasted 3 (THREE) times via photoshop. 50 tricky dick fun bucks to the first person to point it out oh yeah the red x-51 is done awful! Check out the cowl directly above the pilots side window that blends into the rotor housing. Pasted 3 times where the rotor should be and once on the tail. Can I trade the tricky dick fun bucks in for a super special 2008 tricky dick DOOM-a-holic T-shirt? |

Frigg Stuyvesant User ID: 365732 United States 02/04/2008 03:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | First thing I noticed was the look of the triple louvred thingy especially the light reflections(something off about them).Then the x-51 it's not right either. I certainly agree w/ the poster who mentioned framing the craft around the propulsion system.Ovoid or saucer shaped seems like the most obvious choice. When you think of an aeroplane heading directly at you what you see is a wide saucer shape with an (tail fin)antennae.Remove the antennae (superfluous now).and if you weren't hindered by gravity anymore that would seem to be a nearly perfectly aerodynamic shape for flight in any direction wouldn't it? Cui Bono? |

T.C User ID: 322409 New Zealand 02/04/2008 03:58 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The disparity between the 'rotorless' part (where a rotor would normally be) and the remainder of the helicopter, in terms of reflection, shading etc, appears to me as being clearly an artificial construction (e.g. 'photo shopped'). In addition, it seems wasteful to fit a helicopter with some 'anti-gravity' technology when a craft with greater internal carriage capacity wold be more useful. If you can negate gravity, why fly around in a mini sized craft when you can fly a larger object with greater internal mass i.e. useful cargo capacity. Just one guy's thoughts on the subject. Take your dogma and shove it! Life is not about what happens to you, it's about how you deal with it. |
Chief User ID: 510429 Canada 09/25/2008 08:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As well look at the tail part the name on the tail says X51 but why does the white paint that goes thru it cut off around that part ? Then there is a little but more read that cuts out more white around the same area. I agree with the paste 3x on the helicopter. If this was military why would they use these colours and why would the pilot not being wear a uniform ? |
