The Ace Junior Ace is a TWO-seat sports aircraft that has been offered by the Ace Mfg in kit and plans form for home building, since the early 1930s. It was designed by Orland Corben It is a parasol wing monoplane of conventional tail wheel or TRI-gear configuration. Pilot and passenger sit side-by-side, in a cockpit that may be enclosed or left open. The fuselage is of fabric-covered tubular construction and the wings are wood. A variety of power plants may be used, and the aircraft has a power range of 85 to 120 hp. Specifications (Typical Junior Ace E)[edit]General characteristic
Performance
CNC Precision Manufacturing While the history of Ace aircraft dates back to the 1920s, the manufacturing techniques used to build Ace aircraft are modern and very high tech. Items such as fuselages, wings, and fuel tanks are manufactured using CNC processes which cut steel, aluminum, and wood to incredibly high tolerances. As a result, welding is simplified, building time is reduced, and quality is improved dramatically regardless of whether you purchase a pre-cut fuselage and tail feathers to weld yourself or choose a tack-welded or factory-welded fuselage and tail-feathers. CNC cut wing ribs also allow you to decrease your building time while giving you a lighter, stronger overall wing. Wing Fuel Tanks When Mr. Corben first built his aircraft, the fuel tanks were located in the wings and had a limited fuel capacity—usually less than nine U.S. gallons. During the early 1950s when the Baby Ace and Junior Ace were revived, the redesigned aircraft had the fuel tanks in the fuselage between the instrument panel and engine. Additionally, these wing tanks can be retrofitted to any previously built Ace aircraft whose wings were built according to the 1958 series of wing plans—mainly the Baby Ace Model D and the Junior Ace Model E.

There will NOT be a ‘Super’ LaFerrari after all
Tue, 07 May 2013Ferrari has been on the phone this morning to explain that the man from Autocar who spoke to LaFerrari’s chief designer, Flavio Manzoni, got hold of entirely the wrong end of the stick when discussing the design elements Ferrari didn’t use on LaFerrari. It seems Manzoni was explaining that during the design process for LaFerrari there were many design elements that couldn’t be included on LaFerrari, but were so good they wanted to keep them for use on future Ferraris. That was seized upon as confirmation that Ferrari were planning a ‘Super’ LaFerrari to sit above the new supercar at an even more extreme price.

Fri, 15 Aug 2014By Tim Pollard Motoring Issues 15 August 2014 10:19 A 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO Berlinetta sold overnight for a record $38,115,000 (£22,528,626) at the prestigious Bonhams Quail Lodge Auction held during Monterey Car Week. At a stroke, the Ferrari has become the most valuable car in the world, overtaking the 1954 Mercedes W196 R F1 Racer which sold for $30m at an auction at the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed. Tellingly, seven of the top 10 most expensive cars ever sold at auction were Ferraris (see our list below).
Opel Insignia Sports Tourer wagon spotted near GM's proving grounds
Wed, 17 Oct 2012Just like my parents used to say, “You can't get anything by us, we have eyes everywhere.” Ominous threats aside, GM's European unit Opel tried to sneak an Insignia Sports Tourer station wagon onto the roads of Michigan. Luckily our roving eyes spotted the car--complete with turbo badges--and sent some photos back to the mothership. A wagon version of the European sedan has been spotted on Michigan roads before.
