An interesting discussion on the subject can be found here. Hey, we are being too tame compared with these guys!

What part of ANNULAR COMBUSTION CHAMBER AND ANNULAR EXHAUST do you NOT comprehend, even though a schematic WAS provided and this was a REAL
project???!!!

Hey Steve,
The Coanda Turbine Aeroplane predates the CC-2 by 3 decades (1910 vs
1940) and it had a 50 hp engine driving an obturator that sucked in air
into combustion burners that blew hot exhaust aft over the fuselage
body enough to generate lift for the biplane. It was a thermal jet just
like the CC-2... and the world's first purpose designed jet aircraft.
Again, how can you not understand an annular exhaust ring with the
Fw-190TL T-1 engine???

It was a flop probably because thrust would have been directed
outward which would be very inefficient, the heat from the exhaust would
damage the airframe, the flat nose would be very draggy, the engine was
weak and was all round a stupid idea. What part of that do you not
understand, you Nazi freak? Oh, and before you get any ideas, please don't make any more passes at me, I prefer women.

Dan,
You really need psychiatric help b/c you are one sick bastard.

Your ignorant little brain can't comprehend a simple TEST aircraft with
a TEST engine from 1941-42.

The point is that from scratch Focke-Wulf came up with a SIMPLE
centrifugal turbojet and would have had designs for more had they not
been too busy cranking out Fw-190s which numbered 20,000 by war's end.

Heinrich Focke, if you knew his biography, had a 1939 patent for a VTOL
circular a/c called the Fw Schnellflugzeug Rochen which was proposed to
be driven by a turboshaft engine. Focke did not pursue the design due
to the early development problems with the German jets; however,
Focke-Wulf proved they could come up with a jet engine of their own and
had the need arisen for jet 190s or OTHER Fw designs, Focke-Wulf could
have manufactured their own engines at that point in time.

BTW, had Coanda been a pilot when his Turbine Aeroplane started to move
forward as he adjusted the engine then that a/c might have actually
flown in 1910 and then we would have had turbojet biplanes in WW1!

Nevertheless, we can thank God for that disaster b/c it was with the
Turbine Aeroplane that Coanda made his famous discovery- the "Coanda
Effect" by observing the exhaust following the contours of the
fuselage.

Stop be such a hateful old degenerate and remember to take your meds.

Pretty funny, despite the topic.
