the spectacular flameout of once high-flying internet stocks
The most severe problem associated with firing the nose-mounted rockets was that the exhaust could cause a flameout of the jet engine, which could lead to loss of the aircraft.
The fourth and fifth aircraft of the parade batch were used in flight tests to eliminate the engine flameout problem from late 1947 through early 1948.
The flameout occurred because the aircraft entered the maneuver with an incorrect trim setting.
High-alpha turns were limited by the capability of the engine inlets to ingest air, possibly resulting in flameout.
The engine also suffered from frequent flameouts and compressor stalls.
Prior to this accident, there were several other incidents of single or dual flameouts due to these weather conditions.
The engine, while unexceptional in rated performance, demonstrates exceptional robustness under various conditions and is resistant to stall and flameout.
In this condition, the engine generated drastically less thrust and may result in surges or compressor stalls, these could cause flameouts or damage.
