  • Captain F. TICKELL CMG, CNF
    Captain F. TICKELL CMG, CNF [1857 – 1919] Captain Tickell was President of the Club in 1905 1 Frederick Tickell was born on 7 March 1857 at Amoy Harbour, China (now Xiamen). He was the son of Captain George Tickell [1823-1890], mariner and member of the Royal Naval Reserve, who was born in London and died in Melbourne. His mother was Charlotte May (née Crabbe) [1821-1877]. She was born in Berkshire and died in Melbourne. He had three siblings: 1 Under the Club’s original 1892 “Rules” or “Constitution”, the Presidency of the Club alternated “as of right” between the senior Army and Naval Commanders in the Colony (and later the State) of Queensland. A separate elected position of “Chairman of Committee” also existed who, as implied by its name, actively managed the Club through its volunteer Committee Members – including Honorary Secretary and Treasurer. In 1910 the Rules were amended to reflect a governance model, which has essentially existed ever since, where the elected President chaired the Club Committee.

  • The Duckenfield Expedition 31 March -1 April 2005
    The Duckenfield Expedition 31st March -1st April 2005 The Oceanic Research Foundation Ltd., the NSW Heritage Office and the Australian National Maritime Museum were represented by members and staff during a two-day expedition to the wreck of the ss Duckenfield. Logistical support was provided by Mr Dick Smith in the form of the M/Y Ulysses Blue and crew. The expedition had two primary objectives. Firstly, to conduct a re-survey of the ss Duckenfield (Mr David Nutley - NSW Heritage Office; Mr Stirling Smith and Mr Lee Graham -Australian National Maritime Museum). The survey achieved its primary objectives which were to assess the current condition of the site, obtain detailed photographic and video images of the site and to assess the extent and cause of deterioration of the Scotch boiler. The second objective was to field-test submersible electronic equipment (modulated fluorometers) used in biological research (Dr John Runcie – Oceanic Research Foundation Ltd.). The fluorometers provided credible light and temperature data, and regularly measured photosynthetic activity of selected samples for 12 hours. The test provided useful and revealing data regarding the operation of the device, and specific issues arising from the results are now being addressed in the development of the next generation of modulated fluorometer. A further objective of the study was to assess the suitability of the Ulysses Blue for proposed future research activities and determine the nature of any constraints that would influence the conduct of these activities. Dr Don Richards and Mr Colin Putt (both Fellows of the Oceanic Research Foundation Ltd.) provided valuable assistance and advice throughout the expedition and gained valuable first-hand experience of the utility of the Ulysses Blue as a research vessel.

  • We Envy No Man on Earth Because We Fly. the Australian Fleet Air
    We Envy No Man On Earth Because We Fly. The Australian Fleet Air Arm: A Comparative Operational Study. This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Murdoch University 2016 Sharron Lee Spargo BA (Hons) Murdoch University I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. …………………………………………………………………………….. Abstract This thesis examines a small component of the Australian Navy, the Fleet Air Arm. Naval aviators have been contributing to Australian military history since 1914 but they remain relatively unheard of in the wider community and in some instances, in Australian military circles. Aviation within the maritime environment was, and remains, a versatile weapon in any modern navy but the struggle to initiate an aviation branch within the Royal Australian Navy was a protracted one. Finally coming into existence in 1947, the Australian Fleet Air Arm operated from the largest of all naval vessels in the post battle ship era; aircraft carriers. HMAS Albatross, Sydney, Vengeance and Melbourne carried, operated and fully maintained various fixed-wing aircraft and the naval personnel needed for operational deployments until 1982. These deployments included contributions to national and multinational combat, peacekeeping and humanitarian operations. With the Australian government’s decision not to replace the last of the aging aircraft carriers, HMAS Melbourne, in 1982, the survival of the Australian Fleet Air Arm, and its highly trained personnel, was in grave doubt. This was a major turning point for Australian Naval Aviation; these versatile flyers and the maintenance and technical crews who supported them retrained on rotary aircraft, or helicopters, and adapted to flight operations utilising small compact ships.
