phat trev Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 As the title says, Why do Skyraiders have huge great dirty exhaust stains on the side? Is it the engines running oil rich? if so why? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Dirty great engines, and little air flowing away to take the soot from the fuselage sides... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Jones Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Probably a combination of a huge engine and very short exhaust stubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
