A front view of an old World War II airplane showing the engine and propeller
The airplane shown is a Stearman PT-17 biplane which was used by the US Army and US Navy to train pilots leading up to, and during, WWII.  The airplane was used in basic, or primary, training of new pilots.  The photo shows the full airplane from the right front quarter view.  One can see the silhouette of the pilot's head in the cockpit.  The engine is not running.  The markings on the lower wing can be seen and show US Army.  The photo is a classic sepia tone and evokes a clear feeling of history and nostalgia.

Adjustable exhaust nozzle with partly expanded diffusers - a variable area nozzle is required in a jet engine for optimal expansion and adjusting back pressure in the engine when the afterburner is operated, it avoids compressor surge problems due to the increased back pressure on the engine when the afterburner is lit - engines capable of supersonic flight have convergent-divergent exhaust duct features to generate supersonic flow - GE F110 afterburning turbofan jet engine on F-16 fighters - empennage close-up of exhaust and elevator.
