Ouah le carreinage a l'air super cool ! Entre les voiures de courses retro et les zeppelins lol. C'est quoi le nouveau projet medical industrial ?

t'as vu ça hein, et encore, ce n'est que la vieille version de novembre 2008, la version 2009 va dechirer: et pour la deco je suis extrêment tenté d'utiliser le dazzle camouflage des bateaux de guerre de la premiere guerre mondiale.
le medical industrial, c'est une minerve toute mecanique, du jamais vu (enfin j'espere)
bon, on se voit demain alors ? on se donne rdv directement à la salle de concert ?

thanks for the tip, simply because during the course of the last 2 days it has triggered something: I was struggling to adapt a streamlined normalised airfoil around the shape of this trike and suddenly I realized the fairing I wanted shared a lot of similarities (aerodynamically speaking) with the airships. In that field it seems (according to wikipedia) that the zeppelin were less aerodynamically efficient than the vickers , especially the late R101. And, the good point is, its shape (side view) is exactly the kind of airfoil profile I was looking for (ellipsoid). And most important it suits the concept: my velomobile, called "mosquito" (named after the famous british bomber) was developped very near by high barnet; The R101 also had his harbour in the berdfordshire a few miles north from High Barnet. This velomobile is the living proof of my will of britishness assimilation :-))
