Thought I'd seen just about every type of aircraft. Found this on Youtube tonight. Two engines running counter-rotating props on the same hub. Stupid cool.

That's the one in New Richmond WI about 50 miles east of the Twin Cities. I've seen it at a few local airshows.

I saw one of those on static display at a museum in Australia many years ago. Never expected to see an airworthy example.

Janet is pretty neat. Never have figured out why the Brits come up with such hideously complex solutions to reasonably standard problems.
