   Thanks! For the plots it's Arial and for the text in the author version, Charter and Cabin Condensed. Elsevier uses instead the (very expensive) Gulliver font for the text.

   I think the old article (and thus the picture) is from the version 2 dataset, and now they have realeased version 3. I went ahead and rendered the version 3 dataset with QGIS: https://i.imgur.com/jj8B4D8.jpg Edit: without t

   I am even wondering if it's an AI-generated picture? - Look at the top of the last two stages of the "low-pressure compressor", you can see like some "phantom" blade airfoils? And yeah, no stators at all... - The &q

   It's very pretty, but for a 3D-printed aerospike that actually works , take a look at the work of Pangea Aerospace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chDMW27iYoU

    I wonder if the insult carried then the same meaning as in modern Spanish, i.e. «coward». It would make sense that the carver thought that trait to be a grave issue in a military garrison context.

    Well, the 737 is probably the worst aircraft to compare against, given it has been enlarged by 50% from the original 737-100 to the newer 737-900! https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bc/B737F
