Stanisław Watta-Skrzydlewski (born January 28, 1927 in Unisław, December 12, 1966) in Bielsko-Biała - glider, third in Poland winner of the Golden Globe Badge with three diamonds, pilot glider I kl, pilot airplane I kl , an aviation instructor.

Aviation has been interested in children since the beginning of the first flight in August 1945, when the Glider Classroom was awarded Category A glider pilot. For less than a year in Goleszow he obtained category B, and in August 1947 category C. He quickly raised his qualifications: in 1948 he was qualified for silver, and in 1950 he won the Golden Globe Badge (No. 10).

In 1951 he graduated from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the Technical University of Gliwice (MSc in Mechanical Engineering). For some time he worked in the Steel Industry Project Office.

In 1953, he received the Golden Globe Badge with three diamonds as the third Pole and 14 in the world (the first was Tadeusz Góra, the second was Andrzej Ziemiński).

In 1955, he began working as a pilot in the SZD Experimental Experimental Laboratory in Bielsko-Biała. While working at SZD, he covered the following prototype gliders:

In the years 1946-1966 he was flying almost all (apart from SZD-6 Batman and SZD-20 Vampire-II) sailors in Poland. Since 1956, head of the SZD's flight test department.

He started in 1948-1957 in numerous glider competitions in Poland, earning leading positions. He was the head of the Polish team in the gliding expedition to India in 1955. He also received the title of champion in gliding (No. 16). He was a pioneer in the field of multi-channel oscillators that record parameters during research flights. He also put a tape recorder (with a note on the wire) on board the surveyed gliders.

2134 hours of premature death occurred, of which 522 hours were on airplanes.

He died of aviation in a plane crash - during a study of a corkscrew with the front center of gravity - due to the locking of the aileron in a tilted position - in the SZD-30 Pirate glider on December 12, 1966. Stanislaw Wielgus, who succeeded in popping out the remains of a scattered glider, found out about the problem of the glider's failure.

At the site of Stanisław Skrzydlewski's disaster is a boulder with a commemorative plaque. He was buried in Katowice at the cemetery at ul. French. Bibliography

Pupo Román

José René "Pupo" Román Fernández (died 1961) - Dominican general. Curriculum vitae In the Dominican history, when the dictatorial president Rafael Leónidas Trujillo was in power, Roman was his niece's husband and "third person in the state" (Trujillo and SIM Arturo Espaillata). He was the Minister of Armed Forces, a close associate of Trujillo, which did not prevent him from accepting Trujillo's murder in 1961 from the American consul in the Dominican Republic, Henry Dearborn. He led to the murder of Rafael Trujillo on May 30, 1961, but he could not use this to overthrow his followers. He failed to arrest them along with Trujillo's sons such as Ramfis. Ultimately, the conspiracy ended with the conspirators' defeat when Zacarias - chauffeur Trujillo - survived the presidential bombardment and handed over the drafts of the bombers and Arturo Espaillat informed Roman about the death of the commander - at the sight of Arturo Espaillata Roman revealed ...

Myrmex Indikos

Myrmex Indikos, pol. Indian ant - an alleged species of gigantic ants (according to Herodot's description, larger than foxes, but smaller than dogs). The earliest mention of these creatures is dated to the fifth century BC, and its author is Herodotus. According to her, these ants inhabited the deserts of Persia and India and extracted gold from their sands. Several such creatures were kept in the residence of the King of Persia. Gold was to be obtained by caravans made up of several camels in the heat of the day, when the ants were protected underground. You had to do it quickly, because the ants sensed the smell of people and went on the pursuit, and they were deadly dangerous. This story is confirmed by the next accounts: Nearchos, one of the army officers of Alexander Macedoński, and Megastenes - a historian and traveler. The fragment of the Megasthenes (IV-III century BC) preserved in fragments can be seen in the underground mines at the foot of the mountains on the easte...

Names of streets and squares

-
The names of the streets and squares were originally of a topographical nature, that is, they informed about: Researchers propose two names for these toponyms - urban or plateonimy. S. Urbańczyk points out that the older names were spontaneously formed and sprouted in the daily lives of the inhabitants of the place. The information contained herein was related to the characteristics of the place (eg appearance), important road directions (geographic orientation) or values, functions and economic meanings called places / objects in the settlement for the inhabitants' lives. Former names are protected by law, but are often not respected by managers of the municipality, county or province. Currently the names of streets and squares are given by the commune authorities, county governors or voivodships. There is a tendency to use commemorative names, ie to commemorate deserving people and important events (eg Zygmunt August Street, 3. Maja Street). The names of the districts are ...
