IhavethecalculatorCasioFX85.I'mtryingtolearnmoreandmoreaboutthisremarkableinstrument.Beencomplicatedasitis,Iwonderifithasafunction/waytoimmediatelysolveanequation: You get all the functionality you need for maths up to GCSE, with calculations, statistics, table of values and equivalent ratio. This is the calculator I would recommend for GCSE and IGCSE students and is essential for A-level. It can do everything the fx-85 can do, but has lots of extra tools. In particular the equation solver is super useful for GCSE and IGCSE and there are statistical functions that are absolutely essential for A-level. Although it is still very user friendly, there are a lot more menu options on the fx-991 compared to the fx-85 which makes the fx-85 a little easier as a first calculator for a younger student. It’s also double the price so if you’re buying it for a student who tends to lose things you might go for the cheaper option until they are closer to their exams. Having said all that, if you’re going to buy one calculator for school it should definitely be this one! This is the calculator I would recommend for students early on in secondary school (age 11-13) before they start properly preparing for GCSE and IGCSE. It’s a nice basic level scientific calculator and the cheapest option that can in theory get you through school mathematics. It lets you deal with fractions nicely and can do things like prime factorisation and recurring decimals well. Because it doesn’t have so many functions as the more advanced calculators it’s easy to use for younger children, but this does mean it is missing a few functions that can be helpful in GCSE and IGCSE exams.

During wind tunnel testing at Moffett Field, California, the first prototype XF-85 was accidentally dropped from a crane at a height of 40ft (12m), causing substantial damage to the forward fuselage, air intake, and lower fuselage. [9] [20] The second prototype had to be substituted for the remainder of the wind tunnel tests and the initial flight tests. [21] During World War II, American bombers such as the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, Consolidated B-24 Liberator, and Boeing B-29 Superfortress were protected by long-range escort fighters such as the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt and North American P-51 Mustang. These fighters could not match the range of the Northrop B-35 or Convair B-36, the next generation of bombers developed by the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF). The development cost for longer-ranged fighters was high, while aerial refueling was still considered risky and technologically difficult. [1] Pilot fatigue had also been a problem during long fighter escort missions in Europe and the Pacific, giving further impetus to innovative approaches. [2] The fx-85GTX takes the UK's Number One Scientific Calculator a step further, by offering Solar Power to ensure no loss of battery during those crucial exams.fx-85GTX contains additional features such as clearer display, clearer menus, faster processor and 14 additional functions. Allowed in every UK exam where a calculator can be used. Recommended and approved for Key Stages 3 & 4 (including GCSE, National and Higher, Junior and Leaving). The large Natural Textbook Display (Natural-V.P.A.M.) shows mathematical expressions like roots and fractions as they appear in your textbooks which increases comprehension because results are easier to understand. Our entry-level scientific calculator with solar power has natural maths display and covers all the mathematical requirements for first examinations.

Allen, Francis (Winter 1993). "The Ultimate Escort?: McDonnel XF-85 Goblin". Air Enthusiast. No.52. pp.17–23. ISSN 0143-5450. Pros: Cheap, easy to use for younger students. Has all the essentials for GCSE and IGCSE examinations. A fixed tricycle landing gear was considered for the flight tests but was discarded as the drag was excessive.

Strategic Air and Space Museum in Ashland, Nebraska. It was originally transferred to the Norton Air Force Base (near San Bernardino, California) in 1950, still in a damaged state after its last emergency landing. When the base museum was closed and its collection dispersed, the second XF-85 prototype languished in an unrestored condition as part of the Tallmantz private collection in California, until being acquired by Offutt AFB. It is now refurbished and displayed on its ground-handling trestle, nestled under the wing of a B-36J bomber (serial number 52-2217). [37]

The modifications included a structurally reinforced bomb bay that included the trapeze apparatus and an "umbilical" fueling station. In operational use, provisions for repair of oxygen and other mechanical systems, as well as replenishing ammunition were contemplated. [16]After boosting the trim power by 50 percent, adjusting the aerodynamics, and other modifications, [22] two further mated test flights were carried out before Schoch was able to make a successful release and hookup on 14 October 1948. [27] During the fifth free flight on 22 October 1948, Schoch again found it difficult to hook the Goblin to the bomber's trapeze, aborting four attempts before hitting the trapeze bar and breaking the hook on the XF-85's nose. Again, a forced landing was successfully carried out at Muroc. [23]
