A4 Paper
ISO 216 is an International Organization for Standardization, international standard for paper sizes, used around the world except in North America and parts of Latin America. The standard defines the "A", "B" and "C" series of paper sizes, which includes the A4, the most commonly available paper size worldwide. Two supplementary standards, ISO 217 and ISO 269, define related paper sizes; the ISO 269 "C" series is commonly listed alongside the A and B sizes. All ISO 216, ISO 217 and ISO 269 paper sizes (except some envelopes) have the same aspect ratio, square root of 2, , within rounding to millimetres. This ratio has the unique property that when cut or folded in half widthways, the halves also have the same aspect ratio. Each ISO paper size is one half of the area of the next larger size in the same series. Dimensions of A, B and C series History The oldest known mention of the advantages of basing a paper size on an aspect ratio of \sqrt is found in a letter writ ...

Southern Winds Airlines
Southern Winds Airlines (also known as ''SW Airlines'') was an Argentine commercial air carrier that operated from 1996 until 2005. Southern Winds was founded by Juan Maggio, who served as president of the company. History Initially a domestic carrier, Southern Winds began offering connections to international flights in 1997. The airline's own international operations were authorized by the Argentine Government in 2001. At its peak, Southern Winds operated an extensive domestic network, international flights within the South American region, and intercontinental services from Buenos Aires to Miami and Madrid; and charter destinations like Florianopolis, Porto Seguro, Camboriu, Tacna and Punta Cana. Hubs were maintained in Córdoba (from 1996) and Buenos Aires (from 1999). Southern Winds' fleet was composed initially by Bombardier and later the Boeing passenger planes. Though the company was founded as a passenger carrier, cargo transport services began in 2000 under the br ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Audi A4
The Audi A4 is a line of luxury compact executive cars produced from 1994 to 2025 by the German car manufacturer Audi, a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group. The A4 has been built in five generations and is based on the Volkswagen Group B platform. The first generation A4 succeeded the Audi 80. The automaker's internal numbering treats the A4 as a continuation of the Audi 80 lineage, with the initial A4 designated as the B5-series, followed by the B6, B7, B8, and the B9. The B8 and B9 versions of the A4 are built on the Volkswagen Group MLB platform shared with several models and brands across the Volkswagen Group. The Audi A4 automobile layout consists of a Front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, front-engine design, with transaxle-type transmission (mechanics), transmissions mounted at the rear of the engine. The cars are front-wheel drive, or on some models, "quattro (four wheel drive system), quattro" all-wheel drive. The A4 is available as a Sedan (automobile), sedan and stat ...

Belgian Ship A4
Patrol vessel ''A4'' () was a small operated by Belgium during the Second World War. Originally built for the British Royal Navy, as HMS ''John Ebbs'', the ship is notable for its role in evacuating Belgian gold reserves to England during the Battle of Belgium in May 1940. The success of the operation not only allowed the Belgian government in exile to fund its operations but deprived the German occupiers of an important asset to support their war effort. After the Belgian surrender, the vessel and its crew interned themselves in neutral Spain. Both crew and vessel were released in 1946 and ''A4'' was scrapped soon afterwards. Background ''Pilote 4'' (later renamed ''Patrouilleur A4'') was purchased by the Belgian ''Corps de Marine'' in 1920, having previously served in the British Royal Navy during the First World War as HMS ''John Ebbs'' (FY3566). The vessel was a Mersey-class naval trawler, built by Cochranes in Selby, North Yorkshire, and was launched on 2 October 1 ...

HMS A4
HMS ''A4'' was an early Royal Navy submarine. She was a member of the first British of submarines. Like all her class, she was built at Vickers, Barrow-in-Furness. Service history ''A4'' suffered a serious accident, although without casualties, on 16 October 1905 during an underwater signalling experiment off Spithead. A bell had been lowered into the water from a dinghy some distance away from the submarine was being used to signal to the submarine, which was running awash. A flag on a boat hook protruding through a ventilator which had been left open was used to indicate that the signal had been heard. The experiment had been performed successfully on the previous day, but the sea was much rougher on 16 October and consequently the submarine stayed inside the breakwater. The same trim settings had been used as on the previous day, but as there was fresh water flowing into the harbour, the water was less dense and so the submarine was less buoyant than on the previous d ...

HMNZS Kahu (A04)
HMNZS ''Kahu'' (A04) was a inshore patrol vessel of the Royal New Zealand Navy. She was launched in 1979 as the lead boat of her class, modified to function as a diving tender. She was initially named HMNZS ''Manawanui'' (A09), the second of soon to be four diving tenders with this name to serve in the New Zealand Navy. As a diving tender she participated in the exploration and salvage work of the wreck in March 1986. On 17 May 1988, she was renamed ''Kahu'' (A04) and recommissioned as the basic seamanship and navigation training vessel attached to the Royal New Zealand Naval College. ''Kahu'' is the second boat with this name to serve in the New Zealand Navy. (The name comes from the Māori-language - the name for the native swamp harrier hawk.) The ship was replaced in her role as a diving tender by . She remained in service for seamanship, Officer of the Watch training and as a backup diving tender until her decommissioning on 30 October 2009. The ship was sold for us ...

PRR Locomotive Classification
Locomotive classification on the Pennsylvania Railroad took several forms. Early on, steam locomotives were given single-letter classes. As the 26 letters were quickly assigned, that scheme was abandoned for a more complex system. This was used for all of the PRR's steam locomotives, and — with the exception of the final type bought (the E44) — all electric locomotives also used this scheme. PRR steam and electric classification A: 0-4-0 Class A was the 0-4-0 type, an arrangement best suited to small switcher locomotives (known as "shifters" in PRR parlance). Most railroads abandoned the 0-4-0 after the 1920s, but the PRR kept it for use on small industrial branches, especially those with street trackage and tight turns. * A1 * A2 * A3 * A4 * A5s * A6 B: 0-6-0 Class B comprised the 0-6-0 type, the most popular arrangement for switcher locomotives on the PRR. * B1 (Steam) * B1 (Electric) * B2 * B3 * B4 * B5 - Rebuilt from class H1 and H2a 2- ...

LNER Class A4
The LNER Class A4 is a class of streamlined 4-6-2 steam locomotive, steam locomotives designed by Nigel Gresley for the London and North Eastern Railway in 1935. Their streamlined design gave them high-speed capability as well as making them instantly recognisable, and one of the class, LNER Class A4 4468 Mallard, 4468 ''Mallard'', holds the record as the world's fastest steam locomotive. Thirty-five of the class were built to haul express passenger trains on the East Coast Main Line route from London King's Cross railway station, London Kings Cross via York railway station, York to Newcastle railway station, Newcastle, and later via Newcastle to Edinburgh Waverley railway station, Edinburgh, Scotland. They remained in service on the East Coast Main Line until the early 1960s when they were replaced by British Rail Class 55, Deltic diesel locomotives; they themselves proving to be worthy successors to the A4s. Several A4s saw out their remaining days until 1966 in Scotland, partic ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bavarian A IV
Bavarian A IV engines were German 2-2-2 steam locomotives with the Royal Bavarian State Railways (''Königlich Bayerische Staatsbahn''). The vehicles were developed for night journeys and operations on the North-South Railway. In order to increase the area of the evaporator, the boiler was increased in length to 3,080 mm and in diameter to 1,219 mm. In addition, the weight and the boiler overpressure were raised. These were the first engines to have an outside frame with outside cylinders. This class was used widely, especially in south Germany and in Austria. All the engines bar one were retired by 1883. The survivor was initially converted to a 0-6-0, and later a 0-4-2 wheel arrangement. They were coupled to 3 T 5 tenders.
