You're listening to Amma Mia podcast. Good morning, angels. 00:18Speaker 2 I hope you're having a wonderful harm day, because I have an absolute treat of an episode for you. I'm Ace London and today's tea is so hot I almost didn't want to share it almost Today, Ariana Grande has announced a brand new album, Thanks the Lord. Filming has begun for the summer I Turned Pretty film Lisa Kudrow has casually revealed how much the Friends cast still makes in residuals and it's way more than you think. Anneeded Sheeran has check notes, shaved his head. 00:46Speaker 1 Let's pause, some tea babes, all right. 00:48Speaker 2 Ariana Grande has officially announced her eighth studio album, and it is called Petal and drops July thirty one. Now, with all the wicked action, you might have forgotten something very important, and that is that Ariana is responsible for some of the best pop bangers of the past decade, Dangerous Woman, Yes and Side to Side seven Rings Thank You Next the. 01:06Speaker 1 List literally goes on. 01:08Speaker 2 Ari described the album as something that is full of life and growing through the cracks of something cold and hard and challenging. So Jessic confirmed, we're getting a new Ari album, a tour, and she's starring in a new Fokker in Law film with Robert T. 01:20Speaker 1 Nira and Ben Stilla Lady this year, Someone get this Girl a. 01:23Speaker 2 Massage out of facial stash. Exciting news for fans of the summer I Turned Pretty filmy has officially begun this week for the film installment. First scenes are being shot in Wilmington, North Carolina, and production. 01:35Speaker 1 Is expected to run for about two months. 01:38Speaker 2 The cast are reportedly getting paid for the equivalent of three episodes, which makes sense when you break down timings. Belly, Jeremiah, and Conrad, of course are returning, but additional supporting cast members are yet to be now and so there will no doubt be some surprises to come. Jenny Hahn, who wrote the iconic book trilogy, has hindered that the film will center on another big milestone in Belly's journey, and we're thinking people motherhood. 02:01Speaker 1 Surely she's too young for that. I suppose we'll have to wait and see. 02:04Speaker 2 Now. I know we talked about Helena Bottom Carter exiting White Loatus season four earlier this week, and I promised you I keep you posted on who was stepping in while the answer has arrived and it's a good one. 02:14Speaker 1 Oscar win out. 02:15Speaker 2 Laura Dern has joined the season forecast, stepping in after Helena's exit. Crucially, she's not taking over Helena's role. That character has been scrapped entirely. Instead, Mike White has written a brand new character specifically for her. Now this is not a random casting either. They go way back. They created the HBO cult favorite Enlightened together, for which Durn won a Golden Globe, and whitebrote and directed the two thousand and seven film Year of the Dog with Laura Dern. They were even photographed together having somemovies in La last July, which fans were speculating at a time was a White Lotus meeting. 02:49Speaker 1 It took nine months, but fans, as always, were right, and here we are sticking around. 02:54Speaker 2 Billie Eilish gives us a lesson in astrology, and the Friends cast is still making an obscene amount of money from his jewels. 03:03Speaker 1 Welcome back to your morning tea. 03:05Speaker 2 This next story is either going to delight you or make you want a life faced down on the floor, possibly both. 03:09Speaker 1 Lisa Kudro has revealed in a new interview. 03:11Speaker 2 With the Times of London that the Friend's cast is still earning a jaw dropping amount from the show. I'm talking twenty million dollars in residuals two decades after it ended. Now Friends generates about a billion dollars annually for Warner Brothers through broadcast rights and syndication, and each cast member received two percent of that twenty million dollars a year for a show that wrapped in two thousand and four. 03:35Speaker 1 I'm thrilled for them, and also I need. 03:38Speaker 2 To go and cry in a closet while I lament my measly sayings in super write a quick but important one. 03:43Speaker 1 Next Ed Sheerann has shaved your head. The ginger hair has gone. 03:45Speaker 2 He's bald, and he's explained why in an Instagram post ed wrote, yes, I've shaved my hair. I wanted to shave it to signify a fresh start, a lot of new beginnings in my life at the moment. I love it thinking of keeping it this way. He also revealed he's been privately battling shit she can go for the past month, writing wouldn't recommend it, but on the Men's now it is about to recummens. He's looped to a heading to the Dominican Republic next week, and I'll leave you this. Billy Ailey sat down with l for quick Q and A and included this cheeky astrology Listen, what. 04:15Speaker 3 Is a common misconception about Sagittarius's bitch. Those are not misconceptions, those are true. Here's the thing about astrology. That shit is real. That shit is true. And this is coming from a person who if somebody brought up astrology, I would be like, oh my God, please shut the fuck up. And then I met a Gemini man and I dated as ass and then I believed in astrology. And since then, no matter what, without a doubt, I can recognize a Gemini from a mile away girl. Gemini's amazing life of the party. My favorite people in the world. Male Geminis go to help, so Sagittarius is. Here's the real conception, not misconception, conception about Sagittarius's loud, stubborn, obnoxious, bossy, funny, insane, sexy, good in bed. Yeah, kind of flaky, also a little flaky. 05:13Speaker 1 I'm working on it and I could not love that check anyway. That is it for today's morning tea. 05:17Speaker 2 Thank you for spending a couple of minutes of your Wednesday hanging out with me, Ash London. 05:21Speaker 1 I'm your host and producer. 05:23Speaker 2 Menisia Is Warren is the executive producer, and of course the girls that be back right here in your feet with three pm.

Rassegna stampa economico-finanziaria del 16 Marzo 2026, strutturata per macro-temi e basata sulle principali testate giornalistiche nazionali.INVESTIMENTI E MERCATITestate coinvolte: Il Sole 24 Ore / Corriere della Sera (Economia) / Repubblica (Affari & Finanza) * Flussi finanziari UE verso USA: Si registra un deflusso strutturale di capitali dall'Europa verso Wall Street, quantificabile in 300 miliardi di euro ogni anno. Tra il 2016 e il 2024, l'UE ha finanziato circa il 40% dello sbilancio degli Stati Uniti. * Dominio degli Asset Manager USA: La quota di mercato degli operatori statunitensi tra i primi 20 player globali è salita dal 69% (2007) all'89% nel 2024. In Europa, i gestori USA hanno catturato il 99% dei flussi domestici tra il 2019 e il 2023. * Risparmio degli italiani: I portafogli finanziari sono cresciuti oltre il tasso di inflazione, con una forte esposizione verso i BTP e i fondi comuni. * Mercato dei Data Center: L'Italia sta accelerando sulla normativa per attrarre capitali nel settore infrastrutturale digitale, con target al 2030 che mostrano però ancora un gap di 20 miliardi di euro rispetto agli obiettivi prefissati.INDUSTRIA E AUTOMOTIVETestate coinvolte: Corriere della Sera (Economia) / Repubblica (Affari & Finanza) / La Stampa * Settore ADAS (Guida Assistita): Il mercato globale dei sistemi avanzati di assistenza alla guida ha raggiunto 34 miliardi di euro nel 2025. Le proiezioni indicano una crescita record fino a 93 miliardi di euro (108 miliardi di dollari) entro il 2035. Dal 2024, diversi dispositivi (frenata autonoma, scatola nera) sono diventati obbligatori in UE. * Difesa e Riarmo (Leonardo e Rheinmetall): Siglata la pace tra la Norvegia e l'italiana Leonardo (con Airbus e Fokker) per la disputa sugli elicotteri NH90; l'accordo prevede il pagamento di 305 milioni di euro, di cui 125 milioni a carico di Leonardo. In Germania, Rheinmetall prevede per il 2026 un fatturato record di 14-14,5 miliardi di euro (+40-45%). * Corsa all'Intelligenza Artificiale: La startup britannica Nscale ha raccolto un round record di 2 miliardi di dollari (Serie C), raggiungendo una valutazione di 14,6 miliardi, superando la francese Mistral. Gli investimenti complessivi degli "hyperscaler" USA (Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Meta) per l'IA supereranno i 700 miliardi di dollari nel 2026.FISCO E NORMATIVATestate coinvolte: Il Sole 24 Ore / Corriere della Sera / Repubblica * Revisione dei Conti Pubblici: L'Istat ha certificato per l'Italia un deficit 2025 al 3,1% del Pil (contro un target del 2,9% previsto dal governo) e un debito pubblico salito al 137,1%, pari a circa 3.100 miliardi di euro. * Bonus Casa e Redditi: Le nuove dichiarazioni del 2026 mostrano un depotenziamento dei Bonus Casa, con una riduzione dell'impatto fiscale del 25%. * Casse Previdenziali: Tra il 2019 e il 2023 i crediti contributivi delle casse professionali sono aumentati del 34,69%. Il patrimonio complessivo gestito dalle casse ha superato i 125 miliardi di euro a fine 2025.BANCHE E CREDITOTestate coinvolte: Corriere della Sera (Economia) / Repubblica (Affari & Finanza) * Esposizione alla Crisi in Iran: Secondo la Vigilanza BCE, l'esposizione delle banche europee verso Iran e Israele è estremamente contenuta, pari allo 0,7% del capitale di base per i prestiti e allo 0,6% per le obbligazioni. L'indebitamento totale sulle aree del conflitto è pari all'1% degli attivi. * Performance di Settore: Il Gruppo Santander ha chiuso il 2025 con un utile netto record superiore ai 14 miliardi di euro, puntando a superare i 20 miliardi entro il 2028 con una base clienti di 210 milioni. Tra le banche più solide nei test SREP 2025 figurano l'italiana Credem, la francese Sfil e la spagnola Kutxabank.ENERGIA E GEOPOLITICATestate coinvolte: Corriere della Sera / Repubblica / Messaggero / La Verità * Shock Petrolifero: Dall'inizio del conflitto in Iran (1° marzo), il prezzo del petrolio ha registrato un rialzo del 40,1% in soli 13 giorni. Se le quotazioni si stabilizzeranno a 100 dollari al barile, le compagnie petrolifere USA incasseranno profitti extra per 63,4 miliardi di dollari nel 2026. * Sicurezza Energetica Italiana: Il governo valuta l'invio di una seconda unità navale nello Stretto di Hormuz per proteggere i mercantili. Dal Qatar arriva attualmente il 10% del GNL immesso nella rete italiana, ma le consegne da aprile sono a rischio forza maggiore. * Costi per le famiglie: Il Codacons stima un maggior esborso per gli automobilisti pari a 16,5 miliardi di euro al giorno a causa dei rincari. Il governo studia un bonus anti-rincari per famiglie con ISEE sotto i 15.000 euro. LAVORO E FORMAZIONETestate coinvolte: Repubblica (Affari & Finanza) / Il Fatto Quotidiano * Crisi di Personale nella Ristorazione: Il settore assorbe 826.000 entrate programmate (70% del comparto turistico). Tuttavia, il 51% delle posizioni è di difficile reperimento. Le figure più cercate nel trimestre febbraio-aprile 2026 sono camerieri di sala (75.670) e aiuto cuochi (30.200). * Costo del Lavoro: Nella ristorazione, un lavoratore costa in media all'azienda 26.000 euro l'anno, ma ne percepisce circa 16.000 netti. EXECUTIVE TAKEAWAY (Insight per la C-Suite) * Resilienza Bancaria e Opportunità: Nonostante le tensioni geopolitiche, il sistema bancario europeo mostra una solidità invidiabile con esposizioni dirette ai rischi bellici inferiori all'1%. Questa stabilità garantisce continuità al supporto creditizio per le imprese italiane. * Accelerazione Tecnologica Obbligata: L'esplosione del mercato ADAS e i 700 miliardi di dollari investiti in infrastrutture IA suggeriscono che l'adozione di queste tecnologie non è più opzionale, ma un requisito fondamentale per mantenere la competitività industriale. * Strategia Energetica e Diversificazione: L'instabilità dello Stretto di Hormuz accelera la transizione verso fornitori GNL alternativi (USA, Africa) e il potenziamento dei gasdotti (Algeria, Nord Europa), offrendo nuove prospettive di investimento nelle infrastrutture energetiche nazionali. * Focus sulla Gestione del Talento: La "crepa strutturale" nel reperimento di personale richiede un cambio di paradigma manageriale: non solo revisioni salariali, ma investimenti in "soft skills" e modelli di lavoro flessibili per attrarre le nuove generazioni. * Mercato Unico dei Capitali: Il progetto europeo di "Savings and Investment Accounts" punta a trattenere parte dei 300 miliardi di euro di risparmi che oggi alimentano l'economia USA, aprendo a breve nuove opportunità di finanziamento diretto per le imprese UE.

Er zijn momenten waarop techniek en moraal elkaar met klap en vonk ontmoeten. In het gesprek tussen David Klein (Dugelied / Extinction Rebellion) en Pieter Rambags werd die botsing glashelder: achter de glans van industrie en werkgelegenheid schuilen onderdelen van oorlog en daarmee keuzes die wij als samenleving dagelijks blijven maken.David opent scherp: “De genocidale productie en levering van F-35-onderdelen.” Het is geen abstracte sermoen maar een concrete constatering: de JSF- dat ene “waaninnige moordtuig” - bestaat uit onderdelen uit veel landen, en “zonder die onderdelen vliegt dat ding niet.”Fokker blijkt geen onschuldige toeleverancier: “Ze bouwen ook landingsgestellen voor aanvalshelikopters. Ze werken mee aan reaperdrones, waarmee ook missiles kunnen worden afgevuurd. Dat bedrijf is big time invested in oorlog.” Geld wordt eraan verdiend; pijn wordt ermee veroorzaakt.De logische activistische wens volgt: “Mijn droom is dus ook dat we daarmee stoppen. Dan kunnen die dingen lekker aan de grond blijven staan.” Dat is geen technische nostalgie, het is een morele campagne: maak de keten zichtbaar, saboteer de normaliteit van productie die geweld mogelijk maakt.Over oplossingen spreekt Rambags even simpel als doortastend: “Dialoog in plaats van wapens. Er moet meer geld naar dialoog.” Want blijven investeren in wapens, waarschuwt hij, leidt tot wat we vrezen: “Dan krijg je oorlog.” Europa kiest te vaak voor het instrument dat het conflict reproduceert, niet voor het instrument dat het kan helen. Actie komt in twee vormen voorbij - de vreedzame zichtbaarheid en de confronterende directheid. David nodigt uit voor de geplande demonstratie: “Daarom is het goed dat jullie die actie hebben georganiseerd, 18 oktober… Loop mee als gewone burger. Kom in het rood ook weer. Met potten en pannen.” Een uitnodiging die zowel teder als militant klinkt: maak je zichtbaar, maak herrie, laat geen vergoelijkende stilte over.Toch erkent hij ook de angst onder mensen: “Heel veel mensen zijn best bang om mee te doen. Ze zien soms beelden op het nieuws van geweld.” Daarom benadrukt hij dat deze actie - zoals veel van dit type - vreedzaam is: “De Rode Lijn, dit is er ook zo eentje .… Dit is een vreedzame demonstratie waar iedereen aan mee kan doen. Gezinnen met kinderen zelfs.” Burgerschap hoeft niet te betekenen dat je jezelf in gevaar brengt; het betekent dat je zichtbaar kiest. En dan de media en politie, daar waar verhalen worden gevormd. Rambags vertelt een persoonlijk getuigenis over misrepresentatie: beelden die van buitenaf geweld suggereren terwijl hij het anders zag - “Ik was erbij .… Er werd gezegd dat er 200 demonstranten waren .… Het waren ongeveer 70 mensen die op die rails zaten .… Dus er wordt gelogen bij de verbeelding in onze mainstream media, bij onze staatsomroep.” Vertrouwen in storytelling is politiek; het bepaalt wie als dader of slachtoffer wordt gezien.De regels van de actie worden helder uitgesproken: “Jullie hebben afspraken gemaakt met de politie en met het gemeentehuis. We gebruiken geen geweld en we roepen. Ook niet op tot geweld.” Grenzen scheppen ruimte: zichtbaar protest zonder provocatie - eerlijk, publiek en gericht op de vraag die blijft: welke keuze maken wij als samenleving?Dit gesprek is geen enkelvoudig relaas over onderdelen of één demonstratie. Het is een klaag- én acteerlied: onderdeelpolitiek is mensenrechtspolitiek; productie is verantwoordelijkheid; stilte is medeplichtigheid. Zoals David het simpel samenvat: stop de machines die oorlog mogelijk maken, investeer in dialoog, en wees zichtbaar als burger.Als je nog twijfelt: kom op 18 oktober, in het rood, met potten, met namen om voor te lezen, en met een stem die weigert mee te doen aan de normalisering van wapens. Doe je dat niet, dan blijf je bij de toeschouwers horen. En in tijden waarin landingsgestellen het verschil maken tussen leven en dood, is toeschouwer zijn een morele keuze. Ook dat is politiek.

After a long wait and a marathon ferry flight from Hamburg, Qantas' first A321XLR, VH-OGA, has finally touched down in Australia, a significant step in the Flying Kangaroo's “Project Winton” fleet renewal. It's the beginning of the end for Qantas' ageing 737-800 fleet, even as the airline looks to acquire a few more “mid-life” 737s to tide it over as it waits – and with a range of 8,700km, compared to around 5,000km on the 737-800, might the A321XLR fleet fly internationally as well as domestically? Adam and Jake discuss the latest on Qantas' fleet changes, including plans to replace QantasLink's Fokker 100s with Embraer E190s, and what the A321XLR might do for the national carrier beyond Australia's shores. Plus, a “rain bomb” blows a massive hole in Sydney Airport's schedule – is the new two-hour recovery period enough to mitigate the disruptive effects of wild weather?

Clement Leone stands in the war room, that is filled with many memories and mementos, at his home in Lake Heritage. He is wearing the Legion of Honor award which he received at the French Embassy in Washington D.C. (Darryl Wheeler/Gettysburg Times) This interview of Clem Leone was conducted at his home in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania by John Fenzel and his son Luke, on June 16, 2018.  At the time of this interview, Clem was 94 years old.  The following narrative is derived from multiple sources, detailed at the end of this post.  Many of the photos of awards, models and artifacts were taken at his home. Major Clement “Clem” Leone US Army Air Force   B24 Liberator Radio Operator 2nd Air Division/445th Bomb Group/700th Squadron POW - Stalag Luft IV Poland  Nov. '44 – May ‘45 Clem Leone was born in Baltimore in 1924.  He had two brothers and three sisters and one of his brothers served in the Merchant Marines during WW II.  I asked Clem what he remembered of growing up during the Great Depression.  “It was tough makin' a living.  Not enough food to eat.”  Clem had a step father who was a railroad telegrapher.  “He made an above average salary for the time, but even so, we had to scrounge everywhere we could to get food.”  Clem attended Southern High School, loved his experience, and characterized himself as a nerd.  “I went there to learn and I graduated with honors.” When the war broke out Clem was 17.  He wanted to enlist but his mother wouldn't let him.  “When they started drafting 18 year olds she let me go.”  Clem enlisted in November of '42.  The Army gave him several tests to identify his skills which would then be used to determine his military occupation.  Clem did well on the radio test and had he had the option of radio school or auto and truck mechanic school.  Clem had already taken auto shop in high school so he figured he should learn something else and he selected radio school.  Clem headed to Fort Pickett in Virginia and then to Miami Florida for basic training.  At the time the Army needed radio operators so badly that they shortened his basic training and sent him to radio school in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.  There he spent 13 weeks having “morse code pounded into you.”  Clem wanted to fly and after passing a physical for flying he went to gunnery school to learn every weapon on the aircraft.  The training was primitive but creative for the time and the technology available.   Next stop for Clem was Boise, Idaho where the gunners were teamed with a pilot, co-pilot, engineer and bombardier.  There were a total of 10 in the crew for the B24 Liberator.  The crew was sent to Sioux Falls where they practiced formation flying and Clem was assigned primary responsibility for the radio and secondary responsibility for the upper machine gun turret.  In November of '43 they left for Europe.  They headed for England via Brazil and then to the Ascension Islands.  “The Ascension Islands were a tiny speck in the middle of the ocean.  My thought right away was, the Navigator just got out of cadet training.  I hope he learned his lessons.”  The Navigator got them to the Ascension Islands where they had Thanksgiving dinner while they plane was serviced.  They then flew to Africa and then to Tibenham, England.  Clem was in the 700th Squadron and Jimmy Stewart was a pilot in the 701st Squadron.  One day Jimmy Stewart needed a radio operator to go on a training flight so he could check out a new pilot.  Clem volunteered.  “He was very strict.  You never would have guessed he was a movie star celebrity.” The crew's first flight in December '43 was a training mission to get accustomed to a new pilot.  During the flight, the number 4 engine caught fire and they were able to extinguish the flames.  The pilot was looking to make an emergency landing when the number 1 engine caught fire.  The pilot hit the bail out button and the crew ejected.  Clem didn't get out of the plane until they were at 800 feet, and he hit the ground so hard he broke his leg.  All but the pilot made it out alive. On February 4th of 1944 they had their first mission that took then into Frankfurt, Germany.  They loaded onto their plane, the “Wacky Donald” and headed for Germany.  Clem recalled the flight was uneventful, with lots of flack but no Nazi fighter planes.  They arrived at their target, dropped their bombs, and started to make their turn to head back to England.  One of the planes in the formation above the Wacky Donald had one bomb stuck in its bomb bay and when it released it hit the number two engine on the Wacky Donald.  Clem looked at the window to find a huge hole in the wing.  This forced them to drop out of formation and head back to Tibenham at a much slower speed than the rest of the formation.  The pilot ordered the crew to throw all non-essential equipment, including all but 50 rounds per machine gun, out of the bomb bay to lighten the plane to maintain their altitude.  They were 5 to 6 hours from home. Clem (lower left) with his crew. Top center is Lt. Robert Blomberg, an up and comer with the 445th Bomb Group who died at the controls when his ship blew up. Others in the crew were also KIA. Notable in this team photo is the small man next to Blomberg, Lt. Donald Widmark, co-pilot and brother of future actor Richard Widmark. The co-pilot would grab a parachute and leave Blomberg behind 75 years ago today. Clem's personal rule was to stay with the ship as long as the officers did, but when he saw Widmark bail out, he said, “It was time for this guy to go.” The plane and crew limped home and didn't hit any resistance until they received heavy flack over the coast of France just before they headed over the English Channel.  The plane dropped to about 4,000 feet and then received a radio transmission, “fighters at 6 o'clock.”  Two ME-109 were closing on the Wacky Donald.  Clem was in the upper gun turret and swung the guns around and took aim at the ME-109's.  Another transmission blared “fighters at 12 o'clock.”  Clem pivoted to 12 o'clock and saw a wonderful sight; two British Spitfires.  “Boy, they were beautiful.”  The Spitfires took out one of the Nazi planes and one of the Spitfires chased the other ME-109 back to France.  The Wacky Donald continued back to their air field and Clem recalled, “The White Cliffs of Dover….man they were beautiful!”.  The runway came into sight, but the excitement wasn't over.  The pilot said “I have to put us into a dive to get enough speed to land.  Put the landing gear into the down position and just pray they lock.”  Their prayers were answered, and the pilot got them home in one piece.  “None of us were hurt, but we did a lot of sweating.” With two near misses under his belt Clem flew 4 more missions into Germany and France without incident.  With D-Day looming, Operation Argument was developed.  The objective was sustained and heavy bombing of aviation related targets in Germany.  This was also known as “Big Week”.  The crew of the "Wacky Donald" received orders to bomb a ball bearing plant in Gotha Germany, 145 miles west of Dresden.  “That was a long flight.”  The 20 plane formation took off on February 24 '44.  While making their way to the target they came under attack by the Luftwaffe using Fokker 190's.   The enemy aircraft unleashed a barrage of incendiary rockets directly at the aft section of the "Wacky Donald." Clem was on the radio when he heard a tremendous explosion and saw flames begin to consume the plane. Amidst the chaos and the 200-mile-per-hour slipstream, Clem gripped the barrels of the top turret machine gun, a desperate attempt to maintain some semblance of control.  He looked around and found the tail gunner dead and half hanging out of the plane and one of the waist gunners dead in his position.  The other waist gunner was wounded but managed to eject.  The ball turret gunner came up to escape the fire, but he had to go back and retrieve his parachute leaving Clem and the Engineer to fight the flames with the fire extinguishers.  That proved to be pointless as massive amounts of hydraulic fluid fed the flames.  In a moment that seemed to stretch into eternity, Clem's dire circumstances took a dramatic turn.  The co-pilot climbed over Clem and exited the plane through the upper hatch and bailed out.  Clem's theory was, “if the pilot or the co-pilot leaves, it's time for this boy to go.”  Later Clem learned that 13 of the 20 planes in his formation were shot down. The engulfing fire reached the wing tanks, triggering a catastrophic explosion that instantly transformed the night sky. The force of the blast was so intense that it rendered Technical Sgt. Leone unconscious and propelled him clear of the disintegrating aircraft, setting him on a terrifying free-fall towards the earth below. Plummeting from an altitude of perhaps 10,000 feet, Clem was unconscious, his body hurtling down at a speed that should have guaranteed a fatal outcome upon impact. However, fate had other plans for the feisty airman. In a miraculous twist of events, Clem regained consciousness mid-fall, his face covered in blood, yet his mind startlingly clear. With death staring him in the face, he managed to summon his wits, frantically searching for the orange metal ring on his chest that stood between life and certain death. With a decisive yank, Clem pulled the ring, deploying his parachute and transitioning from a deathly free-fall to a controlled descent. Despite his injuries, including fractured ribs sustained upon impact, Clem survived the ordeal, a testament to his incredible resilience and presence of mind in the face of overwhelming adversity. This harrowing experience not only showcased Clem's indomitable spirit but also marked the beginning of an extraordinary tale of survival against all odds.   Clem put on his parachute and climbed through the upper hatch.  At this point the plane was still flying 240 mph and Clem had to hold on to the two upper guns to keep from blowing off.  The plane was being consumed by flames and Clem was trying to decide how to exit the plane without getting caught in the spinning props or being thrown into the big double tail in the rear.  “While I was contemplating what to do apparently the ship exploded because I found myself at 14,000 feet without an airplane.”   Clem knew he was over enemy territory, and his mind was spinning on how to avoid capture.  His chute opened without a problem and he could see below that there was a pond and he was headed straight into it.  “Well wouldn't you know it, I got out of the plane safely and here I am going to land in this pond and drown because I can't swim.”  Luckily, he remembered his training on how to use his cords to direct his landing.  At about 8,000 feet he saw a crowd of civilians running toward him.  Now he remembered being told that German civilians would kill American pilots because they were told they were gangsters. Clem made sure to pull his legs up so he wouldn't break them and instead broke three ribs and hurt his back. With the crowd rapidly approaching, Clem pulled out his sidearm to try and defend himself.  He could hear them yelling, “Hollander, Hollander!”  He then realized he wasn't in Germany but rather occupied Netherlands.  Clem motioned them to come closer and tried to use his language card to speak Dutch but to no avail.  They brought Clem to a farmhouse and gave him a slice of bread with some jelly and a drink.  Clem didn't know what to expect so he gave the Dutch his firearm in case he was captured.  Better the Dutch to have it than the Nazi's.  Then came a knock at the door and it was a member of the German Home Guard; A Dutch citizen in a Nazi uniform who said, “you are my prisoner.  For you the war is over.”  Clem was led down a road by the Home Guard followed by the Dutch villagers.  Clem was directed to enter a civilian camp, but the Dutch were yelling, “no, other way!”  A 17 year old ran up to Clem and said “come” and he began running.  Without thinking Clem took off with him.  At the same time the Dutch villagers handled the guard.  “They beat the daylights out of him!” They ran into the woods and took Clem to a camouflaged underground bunker just big enough for a cot and a bucket for a latrine.  They told him to stay put and they would be back as soon as the Nazi's stopped looking for him.  A few days later they returned with a doctor.  The doctor taped his ribs and gave him some pain killers and the Dutch brought him some food.  Clem was told he would have to stay put until the villagers were able to hand him off to the Dutch underground.  He hid in the shelter for a week.  One day he heard a truck pull up and was sure the Nazi's had finally found him.  Instead, it was the Dutch underground and Clem's luck continued.  The underground took him to Amsterdam where a family hid him for a while.  They hid him in the attic and sometimes closets.  In the evenings they took him out for walks. They were trying to arrange to get Clem into France and then over the Pyrenees Mountains into Spain and from there to England. The underground thought they had found safe passage and they took Clem and began walking south until they eventually came to a train station, and they handed Clem off to a guide to take him the rest of the way.  At the train station a Nazi soldier asked him where the train was headed.  Clem was dressed in civilian clothes and had identification papers that identified him as a deaf and dumb accountant from Sumatra.  They chose Sumatra because of Clem's Mediterranean complexion and Sumatra was a Dutch possession.  They took the train to a farmhouse in southern Holland and then walked to the border of Belgium.  At the border they had to time the patrols of the Belgium border guards so they could slip across the border.  Once across the border there was a truck waiting for them that took them into Antwerp. Clem was taken to a home where he was hidden for a short time until the underground felt they had another contact that could take him into France.  After exchanging pleasantries, the contact started asking Clem about the name of his plane, when he was shot down and who had helped him.  Clem made up stories about why he couldn't remember and gave up no information.  At that point he was led to a building and was handed over to the Nazi's.  After four and a half months Clem was no longer free.  It was July of 1944 and he had no idea when the war would be over.  I asked Clem what went through his mind at that point.  He said, “I thought it was all over.”  Clem was put in a prison cell with another American that had been captured, Odell Hooper from Oklahoma.  They remained there for about a week until the Nazis had accumulated more Americans.  They were then put on a passenger train to an interrogation center. “All that time, all my mom had was the telegram she received telling her I was shot down,” Leone said. “She didn't know whether I was dead or alive.” At the interrogation center they were put into solitary for a week.  When Clem was brought before the Nazi interrogation officer he was asked for his name, rank, and serial number.  The Nazi, in a very friendly manner said, “Leone.  That's Italian.  Aren't you fighting for the wrong side?”  Clem gave then no information and was sent back to his cell.  Next, they were taken by train to Stalag Luft IV located in present day Tychowo, Poland just south of the Baltic Sea.  Clem remembered when they stepped off the train they saw a long line of German guards, all very young in age and holding German Shepherds.  The Americans were told to run into the POW camp while the guards allowed the dogs to nip at their heels.  When Clem's group made it inside the camp the resident POWs told them, “You were lucky.  They usually prod you with bayonets.” “The Americans already there said we were lucky,” Leone remembered. “The captain who would prick people with bayonets had just gone on leave.” In eight months, Leone had one shower. Had him and his comrades known about the Jewish concentration camps, he admitted they probably wouldn't have gotten even the one shower so as to avoid being gassed. The camp held mainly allied air crews and most of the guards were from the Luftwaffe.  There was a connection between the aircrews which made life a tiny bit more bearable.  Clem was led to his cell by an elderly Nazi soldier who told him, “this won't be pleasant but its bearable and you will be able to live through it and you will be able to get to go home.”  Clem was offered the opportunity to be placed in the officer's camp as an orderly, but he refused.  He wanted to be with the NCO's.   The POWs were warned not to cross the warning wire” that extended around the perimeter of the camp.  If they stepped across it, they would be shot without warning.  Beyond the warning wire there was a series of fences and barbed wire entanglements to make sure no one thought of escape.  Food did exist and red Cross parcels were delivered with some regularity and had some nutrition in them.  Meals consisted of raw potatoes and bread with sticks in it.  Once they were given a block of cheese infested with bugs.  To pass the time they walked around the perimeter of the camp, played baseball with make-shift bats and balls, and played football with a make-shift football. The guards inside the camp were elderly and unarmed.  The POWs called them ferrets because they were always trying to get information from the POWs to pass along to the camp commandant.  The guards in the towers and in the Commandant's barracks were armed.  “They were nasty, and they all spoke perfect English.”  Bartering in the camp with the guards was a big business.  Cigarettes and spam carried high currency.   One of the men bartered with a guard for parts to a radio which he built into a functional transistor radio which kept the POWs somewhat informed of the progress of the war.  They knew the Allies were winning and that helped with morale. In January of '45 the Allies were advancing into Nazi Territory.  The men at the camp could hear artillery in the distance.  They thought Liberation could be not far away.  The Nazi's decided to evacuate the camp to avoid the Russian troops advancing from the east.  They decided to march the camp west.  The sick and wounded were transported by train.  On February 6, 1945, the remaining men began what would become known as the German Death March.   The men were assembled in columns of 4 or 5 across and were forced to march between 5 and 20 miles each day.  The men had inadequate clothing to provide them protection from one of Germany's harshest winters on record.  Snow and sub-zero temperatures resulted in frost bite and the complete lack of sanitation, food or drink resulted in extreme weight loss, lice, dysentery and in some cases death.  Men who could not keep up were escorted by a Nazi soldier into the woods and executed.  Sometimes the men were able to sleep in barns but often they slept in open fields exposed to the elements.  The march took the POWs through numerous German towns where they were distained by the German citizens who had endured prolonged and devastating Allied bombing.  They threw eggs and tomatoes and tried to assault the POWs.   They stole eggs for food. At one point, they collected all their cigarettes to trade with a farmer for a pig to roast. They dodged friendly fire from U.S. airplanes that had no way of knowing they were American prisoners. “Survival,” Leone said when asked what was going through his mind during the more than a year he spent in Europe. “How's this gonna end? What are they finally gonna do? Any time you don't have your freedom, I think you'd feel that way. The worst part of it as far as not having your freedom was that week in solitary.” Clem believes the march ended on May 6th, 1945.  That day they woke up and found that the guards had disappeared.   The POWs wondered what had happened.  A short while later they heard engines and soon a British Lorry appeared carrying British soldiers.    The number of men thought to have started the march was 6,000+.  The total time estimated for the march was 86 days.  It is believed the men covered 600+ miles as the Nazi's continually changed direction to avoid the advancing Soviet troops.  It is thought that 1,300+ men perished in the harsh winter conditions.  No official records were kept making it hard to get precise numbers.  Despite the lack of records this forced march is often compared to the Bataan Death March. The British took the POWs clothes and burned them.  They deloused the men and gave them plenty of time to take a nice hot shower.  Initially they were issued small portions of rations until their digestive systems became accustomed to food again.  Clem boarded the ship, The Jonathan Worth for a 13 day voyage home.  When they entered New York Harbor they were greeted with pleasure boats “with gals in bikini's and some of them had records playing don't fence me in.”  I asked Clem if he remembered seeing the Statute of Liberty.  “Oh Yes.  That was a wonderful site!”  Next, they were taken to Fort Dix and were given a big steak dinner.  They were permitted one phone call and Clem called his uncle to come pick him up.   Clem arrived back in Baltimore and had a 60 day recuperation furlough.  He looked up his high school sweetheart who had waited for him to return and they decided to get married and move to Miami where Clem was scheduled to report back for duty.  They were married and before they left on their honeymoon Clem received a letter to be ready to deploy to the Pacific.  Fortunately, when he returned from his honeymoon the war was over.   Clem went about building his life with a keen sense for making money and advancing.  He worked as an auto mechanic, then networked his way into a Pontiac dealership in the service area, became shop foreman and then went into sales and various other roles in the car business.  In a chance meeting someone asked him if he had ever considered teaching auto mechanics.  He had not but decided to give it a try because it had a pension.  Clem ended up teaching high school auto mechanics for 22 years and was beloved by his students.  He also stayed in the Army and Air Force Reserves for 33 years reaching the rank of Major.  “In my opinion, there are no real heroes in a war,” Leone said from his Mount Joy home in the Lake Heritage development. “There's nothing glorious about war. It's mayhem.” Clem Leone passed away at the age of 98 on Wednesday, September 28, 2022.  CLem received France's highest award, the Legion of Honor, at the French Embassy in Washington, D.C., and also received the Purple Heart, the POW Award and the Dutch equivalent to the French Legion of Honor.

Germany's most famous fighter pilot, Manfred Albrecht Freiherr von Richthofen (aka ‘The Red Baron') was shot down near the Somme River on the Western Front, on 21st April 1918. He had been credited with an incredible 80 air combat victories during World War I.  Originally a cavalryman, Richthofen transferred to the Imperial Air Service and downed 15 enemy planes by the end of 1916. He then headed up his own regiment, using a Fokker triplane painted entirely red; his unit becoming known as the ‘Flying Circus' because of their brightly-coloured planes. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain why even the Allies liked Richthofen; reveal why the Baron stopped printing up souvenir silverware for each of his kills; and consider the fate of the Broadway musical inspired by his heroism…  Further Reading: • ‘History of Government: They seek him here… the life and death of the Red Baron' (UK Government blog, 2018): https://history.blog.gov.uk/2018/04/20/they-seek-him-here-the-life-and-death-of-the-red-baron/ • ‘Ace for the Ages: World War I Fighter Pilot Manfred von Richthofen' (HistoryNet, 2006): https://www.historynet.com/red-baron-world-war-i-ace-fighter-pilot-manfred-von-richthofen/?f • ‘The Red Baron & The Flying Circus in full HD at 1080p' (Historical Aviation Film Unit, 2013): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4lDB7lXFOg #Germany #War #1910s We'll be back on Monday - unless you join

Flight: From Dinosaurs to Space

The History of Computing

Play Episode Listen Later Mar 25, 2023 22:57


Humans have probably considered flight since they found birds. As far as 228 million years ago, the Pterosaurs used flight to reign down onto other animals from above and eat them. The first known bird-like dinosaur was the Archaeopteryx, which lived around 150 million years ago. It's not considered an ancestor of modern birds - but other dinosaurs from the same era, the theropods, are. 25 million years later, in modern China, the Confuciusornis sanctus had feathers and could have flown. The first humans wouldn't emerge from Africa until 23 million years later. By the 2300s BCE, the Summerians depicted shepherds riding eagles, as humanity looked to the skies in our myths and legends. These were creatures, not vehicles. The first documented vehicle of flight was as far back as the 7th century BCE when the Rāmāyana told of the Pushpaka Vimāna, a palace made by Vishwakarma for Brahma, complete with chariots that flew the king Rama high into the atmosphere. The Odyssey was written around the same time and tells of the Greek pantheon of Gods but doesn't reference flight as we think of it today. Modern interpretations might move floating islands to the sky, but it seems more likely that the floating island of Aeollia is really the islands off Aeolis, or Anatolia, which we might refer to as the modern land of Turkey.  Greek myths from a few hundred years later introduced more who were capable of flight. Icarus flew into the sun with wings that had been fashioned by Daedalus. By then, they could have been aware, through trade routes cut by Alexander and later rulers, of kites from China. The earliest attempts at flight trace their known origins to 500 BCE in China. Kites were, like most physical objects, heavier than air and could still be used to lift an object into flight. Some of those early records even mention the ability to lift humans off the ground with a kite. The principle used in kites was used later in the development of gliders and then when propulsion was added, modern aircraft. Any connection between any of these is conjecture as we can't know how well the whisper net worked in those ages. Many legends are based on real events. The history of humanity is vast and many of our myths are handed down through the generations. The Greeks had far more advanced engineering capabilities than some of the societies that came after. They were still weary of what happened if they flew too close to the sun. In fact, emperors of China are reported to have forced some to leap from cliffs on a glider as a means of punishment. Perhaps that was where the fear of flight for some originated from. Chinese emperor Wang Mang used a scout with bird features to glide on a scouting mission around the same time as the Icarus myth might have been documented. Whether this knowledge informed the storytellers Ovid documented in his story of Icarus is lost to history, since he didn't post it to Twitter. Once the Chinese took the string off the kite and they got large enough to fly with a human, they had also developed hang gliders. In the third century BCE, Chinese inventors added the concept of rotors for vertical flight  when they developed helicopter-style toys. Those were then used to frighten off enemies. Some of those evolved into the beautiful paper lanterns that fly when lit.There were plenty of other evolutions and false starts with flight after that. Abbas ibn Ferns also glided with feathers in the 9th century. A Benedictine monk did so again in the 11th century. Both were injured when they jumped out of towers in the Middle Ages that spanned the Muslim Golden Age to England.  Leonardo da Vinci studied flight for much of his life. His studies produced another human-power ornithopter and other contraptions; however he eventually realized that humans would not be able to fly on their own power alone. Others attempted the same old wings made of bird feathers, wings that flapped on the arms, wings tied to legs, different types of feathers, finding higher places to jump from, and anything they could think of. Many broke bones, which continued until we found ways to supplement human power to propel us into the air. Then a pair of brothers in the Ottoman Empire had some of the best luck. Hezarafen Ahmed Çelebi crossed the Bosphorus strait on a glider. That was 1633, and by then gunpowder already helped the Ottomans conquer Constantinople. That ended the last vestiges of ancient Roman influence along with the Byzantine empire as the conquerers renamed the city to Instanbul. That was the power of gunpowder. His brother then built a rocket using gunpowder and launched himself high in the air, before he glided back to the ground.  The next major step was the hot air balloon. The modern hot air balloon was built by the Montgolfier brothers in France and first ridden in 1783 and (Petrescu & Petrescu, 2013). 10 days later, the first gas balloon was invented by Nicholas Louis Robert and Jacques Alexander Charles. The gas balloon used hydrogen and in 1785, used to cross the English Channel. That trip sparked the era of dirigibles. We built larger balloons to lift engines with propellers. That began a period that culminated with the Zeppelin. From the 1700s and on, much of what da Vinci realized was rediscovered, but this time published, and the body of knowledge built out. The physics of flight were then studied as new sciences emerged. Sir George Cayley started to actually apply physics to flight in the 1790s.  Powered Flight We see this over and over in history; once we understand the physics and can apply science, progress starts to speed up. That was true when Archimedes defined force multipliers with the simple machines in the 3rd century BCE, true with solid state electronics far later, and true with Cayley's research. Cayley conducted experiments, documented his results, and proved hypotheses. He finally got to codifying bird flight and why it worked. He studied the Chinese tops that worked like modern helicopters. He documented glided flight and applied math to why it worked. He defined drag and measured the force of windmill blades. In effect, he got to the point that he knew how much power was required based on the ratio of weight to actually sustain flight. Then to achieve that, he explored the physics of fixed-wing aircraft, complete with an engine, tail assembly, and fuel. His work culminated in a work called “On Aerial Navigation” that was published in 1810.  By the mid-1850s, there was plenty of research that flowed into the goal for sustained air travel. Ideas like rotors led to rotor crafts. Those were all still gliding. Even with Cayley's research, we had triplane gliders, gliders launched from balloons. After that, the first aircrafts that looked like the modern airplanes we think of today were developed. Cayley's contributions were profound. He even described how to mix air with gasoline to build an engine. Influenced by his work, others built propellers. Some of those were steam powered and others powered by tight springs, like clockworks. Aeronautical societies were created, wing counters and cambering were experimented with, and wheels were added to try to lift off. Some even lifted a little off the ground. By the 1890s, the first gasoline powered biplane gliders were developed and flown, even if those early experiments crashed. Humanity was finally ready for powered flight. The Smithsonian housed some of the earliest experiments. They hired their third director, Samuel Langley, in 1887. He had been interested in aircraft for decades and as with many others had studied the Cayley work closely. He was a consummate tinkerer and had already worked in solar physics and developed the Allegheny Time System. The United States War department gave him grants to pursue his ideas to build an airplane. By then, there was enough science that humanity knew it was possible to fly and so there was a race to build powered aircraft. We knew the concepts of drag, rudders, thrust from some of the engineering built into ships. Some of that had been successfully used in the motorcar. We also knew how to build steam engines, which is what he used in his craft. He called it the Aerodrome and built a number of models. He was able to make it further than anyone at the time. He abandoned flight in 1903 when someone beat him to the finish line.  That's the year humans stepped beyond gliding and into the first controlled, sustained, and powered flight. There are reports that Gustave Whitehead beat the Wright Brothers, but he didn't keep detailed notes or logs, and so the Wrights are often credited with the discovery. They managed to solve the problem of how to roll, built steerable rudders, and built the first biplane with an internal combustion engine. They flew their first airplane out of North Carolina when Orville Wright went 120 feet and his brother went 852 feet later that day. That plane now lives at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington DC and December 17th, 1903 represents the start of the age of flight. The Wright's spent two years testing gliders and managed to document their results. They studied in wind tunnels, tinkered with engines, and were methodical if not scientific in their approach. They didn't manage to have a public demonstration until 1908 though and so there was a lengthy battle over the patents they filed. Turns out it was a race and there were a lot of people who flew within months of one another. Decades of research culminated into what had to be: airplanes. Innovation happened quickly. Flight improved enough that planes could cross English Channel by 1909. There were advances after that, but patent wars over the invention drug on and so investors stayed away from the unproven technology.  Flight for the Masses The superpowers of the world were at odds for the first half of the 1900s. An Italian pilot flew a reconnaissance mission in Libya in the Italo-Turkish war in 1911. It took only 9 days before they went from just reconnaissance and dropped grenades on Turkish troops from the planes. The age of aerial warfare had begun. The Wrights had received an order for the first plane from the military back in 1908. Military powers took note and by World War I there was an air arm of every military power. Intelligence wins wars. The innovation was ready for the assembly lines, so during and after the war, the first airplane manufacturers were born. Dutch engineer Anthony Fokker was inspired by Wilbur Wright's exhibition in 1908. He went on to start a company and design the Fokker M.5, which evolved into the Fokker E.I. after World War I broke out in 1914. They mounted a machine gun and synchronized it to the  propeller in 1915. Manfred von Richthofen, also known as the Red Baron, flew one before he upgraded to the Fokker D.VII and later an Albatros. Fokker made it all the way into the 1990s before they went bankrupt. Albatros was founded in 1909 by Enno Huth, who went on to found the German Air Force before the war. The Bristol Aeroplane Company was born in 1910 after Sir George White, who was involved in transportation already, met Wilbur Wright in France. Previous companies were built to help hobbyists, similar to how many early PC companies came from inventors as well. This can be seen with people like Maurice Mallet, who helped design gas balloons and dirigibles. He licensed airplane designs to Bristol who later brought in Frank Barnwell and other engineers that helped design the Scout. They based the Bristol Fighters that were used in World War I on those designs. Another British manufacturer was Sopwith, started by Thomas Sopwith, who taught himself to fly and then started a company to make planes. They built over 16,000 by the end of the war. After the war they pivoted to make ABC motorcycles and eventually sold to Hawker Aircraft in 1920, which later sold to Raytheon.  The same paradigm played out elsewhere in the world, including the United States. Once those patent disputes were settled, plenty knew flight would help change the world. By 1917 the patent wars in the US had to end as the countries contributions to flight suffered. No investor wanted to touch the space and so there was a lack of capital to expand. Orville Write passed away in 1912 and Wilbur sold his rights to the patents, so the Assistant Secretary of the Navy, Franklin D. Roosevelt, stepped in and brought all the parties to the table to develop a cross-licensing organization. After almost 25 years, we could finally get innovation in flight back on track globally. In rapid succession, Loughead Aircraft, Lockheed, and Douglas Aircraft were founded. Then Jack Northrop left those and started his own aircraft company. Boeing was founded in 1957 as Aero Products and then United Aircraft, which was spun off into United Airlines as a carrier in the 1930s with Boeing continuing to make planes. United was only one of many a commercial airline that was created. Passenger air travel started after the first air flights with the first airline ferrying passengers in 1914. With plenty of airplanes assembled at all these companies, commercial travel was bound to explode into its own big business. Delta started as a cropdusting service in Macon, Georgia in 1925 and has grown into an empire. The worlds largest airline at the time of this writing is American Airlines, which started in 1926 when a number of smaller airlines banded together. Practically every country had at least one airline. Pan American (Panam for short) in 1927, Ryan Air started in 1926, Slow-Air in 1924, Finnair in 1923, Quantus in 1920, KLM in 1919, and the list goes on. Enough that the US passed the Air Commerce Act in 1926, which over time led to the department of Air Commerce, which evolved into the Federal Aviation Administration, or FAA we know today. Aircrafts were refined and made more functional. World War I brought with it the age of aerial combat. Plenty of supply after the war and then the growth of manufacturers Brough further innovation to compete with one another, and commercial aircraft and industrial uses (like cropdusting) enabled more investment into R&D In 1926, the first flying boat service was inaugurated from New York to Argentina. Another significant development in aviation was in the 1930s when the jet engine was invented. This invention was done by Frank Whittle who registered a turbojet engine patent. A jet plane was also developed by Hans von Ohain and was called the Heinkel He 178 (Grant, 2017).  The plane first flew in 1939, but the Whittle jet engine is the ancestor of those found in planes in World War II and beyond. And from there to the monster airliners and stealth fighters or X-15 becomes a much larger story. The aerospace industry continued to innovate both in the skies and into space.  The history of flight entered another phase in the Cold War. Rand corporation developed the concept of Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (or ICBMs) and the Soviet Union launched the first satellite into space in 1957.  Then in 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin made the first landing on the moon and we continued to launch into space throughout the 1970s to 1990s, before opening up space travel to private industry. Those projects got bigger and bigger and bigger. But generations of enthusiasts and engineers were inspired by devices far smaller, and without pilots in the device.

Avia: De los aviones a los camiones

El Garaje Hermético de Máximo Sant

Todos saben que la marca sueca Saab antes de hacer coches hacían aviones. Pero poco que la marca española AVIA antes de hacer camiones y autobuses hacían aviones… Los AVIA fueron unos excelentes camiones, no muy conocidos y con una historia muy interesante. En los 70 y hasta mediados de los 80 había un cierto “pique” entre los partidarios de los camiones Barreiros y de los Pegaso… Pero no eran los únicos camiones. Es cierto que prácticamente monopolizaban el sector de los grandes, pero entre los ligeros estaban los Ebro y, mis favoritos, los Avia. Me parecían más bonitos, modernos y “aerodinámicos” que sus rivales… y no iba desencaminado. Aeronáutica Industrial S.A. En 1923 el Sr. Jorge Loring Martínez creó en el madrileñísimo barrio de Carabanchel Alto una compañía dedicada a la fabricación de material aeronáutico llamada Talleres J. Loring. En 1934, que España ya vivía una situación pre-bélica su empresa crece y se convierte en una sociedad anónima, pasando a denominarse Aeronáutica Industrial S.A. (AISA), y fabricando aviones para el gobierno de la República, aviones de entrenamiento bajo licencia Fokker y diferentes versiones del curioso autogiro “La Cierva”. Nace AVIA. En la España de esos años no había de nada. Centrándonos en el parque automovilístico, la guerra había hecho estragos y los vehículos que quedaban eran pocos, en mal estado y peor mantenidos. Y en España, convertida en autarquía, no entra nada de fuera. La dirección de la empresa busca nuevas áreas de negocio. Incluso se fabrica menaje de cocina, pero con visión de negocio, se crea en 1957 una sección dedicada a la fabricación inicialmente de motocarros denominada AVIA. EL AVIA 200 se diseña desde cero, utilizando un motor Hispano-Villiers de 197 cm3, 8,4 CV, bastantes para la época y, por supuesto, 2 tiempos. Era un motocarro moderno, con frenos hidráulicos, capacidad para 500 kg y el único homologado en su tiempo para tres personas. INI, dinero y tecnología. AVIA vendió un 33 por ciento de su empresa al INI, Instituto Nacional de Industria, dependiente del Estado. De este modo, con la llegada del INI, AVIA consiguió dinero y tecnología para dar el siguiente paso: Fabricar camiones. En 1960 se presentó el camión madrileño, el AVIA 2500, con motor Perkins de 61 CV y diseñado con la ayuda del departamento técnico de Pegaso. El AVIA 2500 era un camión muy destacable para la época. Su cabina, diseñada nada menos que por Pedro Serra, resultaba mucho más bonita, moderna y hasta aerodinámica que sus rivales. Y tanto en la cabina, como en el resto de componentes, la calidad aeronáutica se dejaba notar. Además, eran económicos de compra y mantenimiento, aunque nunca tuvieron una ventaja que si acabaron teniendo sus rivales: La cabina abatible. AVIA crece. Tras el 2.500 y con cabina casi idéntica, llega el 4000, con motor Perkins de 4,2 litros y 68 CV. Entre 1962 y 1973 a gama crece con modelos de entre 1.500 kg y 7.000 kg de carga útil y pasa a fabricarse en Setúbal, Portugal bajo la marca SODAG. Ya para entonces la marca tenía fama de construir camiones con un nivel de calidad superior a la competencia, especialmente en lo referido a acabados. Y esto la sitúa en muy buena posición para fabricar autobuses y autocares. Ya con la base del 3.500 AVIA fabricaba microbuses de 16 plazas, pero quieren ir más lejos. Y para ello se asocia con su Rival, Motor Ibérica, cuya marca comercial es EBRO. Al final AVIA acabaría convirtiéndose en una especie de segunda marca algo más premium de EBRO. Fabricó furgonetas e incluso las pequeñas Siata sobre base Seat 600 y 850 se pudieron ver con marca AVIA. Pero su alianza con EBRO fue una alianza envenenada. Motor Ibérica, propietaria de la marca EBRO, primero con el apoyo de Ford y luego con el de Massey Fergusson, ambos accionistas en su momento, EBRO toma la delantera, por ejemplo, al presentar su canina abatible en su serie D. y Motor Ibérica decide hacerse con el control de AVIA y en 1984 desaparece la marca. La fábrica, que en esos momentos estaba en la localidad madrileña de Cuatro Vientos, una zona con mucha influencia aeronáutica, cierra … una verdadera pena. Luego llegó Nissan y la que desapareció fue EBRO… Camión del día. No lo puedo evitar, aunque los más modernos de cabina más cuadrada me gustan, los primeros Avia 2.500 y 3.500 con esa cabina redondeada en el frontal me parecen más personales que ninguna otra. Pude conducir uno e incluso en vacío, con sus 61 CV, requería paciencia. No quiero ni pensar en un viaje a plena carga por las carreteras de finales de los años `60 en España. Si los camioneros me parecen, aún hoy día, unos héroes, entonces lo eran aún más, Hay otra marca AVIA que desde 1919 fabrica aviones, camiones y furgonetas sin ninguna relación con la española. Era una empresa checa ahora en manos de la empresa india Hinduja.
