Fiat G.91
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_G.91


https://www.scalemates.com/kits/meng-model-ds-004s-fiat-g91-r--998740


From a forum:
https://www.airliners.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1010069
Quote:
There were two other versions of this configuration of the F-86; the F-86K and the F-86L.
The F-86K was built by Fiat of Italy and substituted 4 20 mm cannon for the rocket pack. If you look at the Fiat G-91, you can see a strong family resemblence with the F-86K.
F-86K History
http://yocumusa.com/sweetrose/duncan/f86k.htm
Quote:
FIAT in Italy signed a license production agreement on 16th May 1953, under which F-86Ks would be built at the company's Turin-Caselle plant from US-supplied components. Further to this agreement, on 18th May, MDAP funds were committed for NAA to supply 50 sets of F-86K parts under Contract AF-25402, signed on 28th June 1954. These aircraft would be assigned USAF serials, but after assembly they would wear Italian Matricola Militare (MM) serial numbers.

Fiat G.91 (codename “Gina”)

Quote:
This Italian Stallion was announced 15 May 2017 and is sure to bring other jets a run for their money.

Just don't make mistake of confusing this fine hand built engineered machine to the roughly similar looking F-86!

Yep, like a still (diSTILLation).
the closer the specific gravity of the molecules are that you're trying to separate, the taller the distillation tower needs to be.




These are drums for a delayed coking unit at chevron. Only about 90 feet tall and about 20' wide.

Marking tires with chalk to track how long a car has been parked violates the Constitution, an appeals court found
https://www.cnn.com/2019/04/23/us/parking-tickets-chalking-court-ruling-trnd/index.html

Quote:
University of Southern California Law Professor Orin Kerr says parking enforcers could avoid potential Fourth Amendment issues by simply taking a photo of the car rather than chalking it. In recent years, cities have begun to use technology to monitor parking, including license plate readers and other computer software to track vehicles.
