A two-fluid model is presented for superluminal sources associated with strong double radio sources with hot spots in extended lobes. The model includes a nonrelativistic jet of e(-)-p plasma which carries most of the mass and kinetic power of the flow at a velocity of about 35 pct of c, a relativistic beam of e(-)-e(+) plasma at a velocity about equal to c, and a magnetic field parallel to the jet and the beam. Observations of two velocities in the VLBI jet of NGC 1275, and the limb brightening of the VLBI jet of M 87 support the two-fluid model. The implications of the model for cosmology are examined.
