    Wisconsin Veterans Museum Research Center Transcript of an Oral History Interview with WARREN H. WEBSTER Pilot, Royal Canadian Air Force and U.S. Air Force, World War II 2000 OH 357 1 OH 357 Webster, Warren H., (1915- ). Oral History Interview, 2000. User Copy: 1 sound cassette (ca. 44 min.); analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Master Copy: 1 sound cassette (ca. 44 min.); analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Video Recording: 1 videorecording (ca. 44 min.); ½ inch, color. Transcript: 0.1 linear ft. (1 folder). Military Papers: 0.1 linear ft. (1 folder). Abstract: Warren Webster, a Madison, Wisconsin native, discusses his World War II service with the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) and later the U.S. Air Force flying close air support. Webster talks about being turned down by the Air Corps because he did not have two years of college, enlisting in the Canadian Air Force, and basic training at Toronto. He estimates that twenty percent of those in flying school were Americans. Webster comments on getting previous flight training as a civilian, flight training in Tiger Moth and Avro Anson planes, flight instructor school in Trenton (Ontario), and serving as an assistant flight instructor. Webster mentions having difficulty getting promoted. He discusses duty as a check pilot and transfer in 1944 to the American Air Force. Sent to France with the 514th Squadron of the 406th Air Group, he touches upon flying support and fighter escort during the Battle of the Bulge. He speaks of different types of bombs he carried, mentions he once missed some tanks and hit a hospital by mistake, and describes the effectiveness of dive bombing tactics using machine guns.

Wilson, PhD Date approved March 28, 2011 ii THE BRITISH AIR CAMPAIGN DURING THE BATTLE OF THE SOMME, APRIL-NOVEMBER, 1916: A PYRRHIC VICTORY ABSTRACT The Battle of the Somme was Britain’s first major offensive of the First World War. Just about every facet of the campaign has been analyzed and reexamined. However, one area of the battle that has been little explored is the second battle which took place simultaneously to the one on the ground. This second battle occurred in the skies above the Somme, where for the first time in the history of warfare a deliberate air campaign was planned and executed to support ground operations. The British Royal Flying Corps (RFC) was tasked with achieving air superiority over the Somme sector before the British Fourth Army attacked to start the ground offensive.

  • Compiled by Lincoln Ross Model Name/Article Title/Etc. Author
    compiled by Lincoln Ross currently, issues 175 (May/Jun 1997) thru 274 (Nov./Dec. 2013), plus partial of a couple of earlier issues I've tried to get all the major articles, all the three views, and all the plans. However, this is a work in progress and I find that sometimes I miss things, or I may be inconsistent about what makes the cut and what doesn’t. I tend to leave out ads, announcements that get too close to ads (usually), contest announcements, and such. Contest reports, kanone lists, etc. I include. Starting sometime, I think, in 2010, plans were bound into the newsletter. Before that, they came in an envelope with the newsletter but not attached to it, although in the late '80s there weren't so many and they were bound in the newsletter. Or, at least, that's as much as I know from my own collection of newsletters. Send corrections to lincolnr "at" rcn "dot" com. Also, if you contributed something, and I've got you listed as "anonymous", please let me knowissue and I'll add your name. Loans or scans of the missing issues would be very much appreciated. issu date e first of model name/article author/designe span no. two title/etc. r in. type comment pseudo 169 May-96 boulton paul defiant Tom Nallen 16 dime scale Florent peanut 169 May-96 sopwith Pup Baecke 13 scale 169 May-96 Lysander 169 May-96 hanriot hd-1 need to fill in rest of 169 May-96 issue! cover 1920's British biplane spotter aircraft.

  • West Essex Aviation Crashes and Mishaps
    North Weald Airfield Museum Archives 1 Crashes and Mishaps 3 WEST ESSEX AVIATION CRASHES & MISHAPS WORLD WAR 2 North Weald Airfield Museum Archives 2 Crashes and Mishaps 3 WEST ESSEX AVIATION CRASHES & MISHAPS EXPANSION AND WAR 1939 - 1940 As the Royal Air Force and other military arms rapidly expanded in the late 1930s, the numbers of reported crashes rose rapidly. February 4, 1939. The prototype of the monoplane Bristol Bombay bomber-transport, the Bristol 130, K3583, forced landed at Chigwell according to those historical documents that bother to mention the incident at all. Such forced landings were not an unfamiliar occurrence up until the end of the 1939-45 war, the performance of the machines and the lay of the land still allowed for safe landings and take-off to be performed. The Bristol 130, constructors number 7809, first flew from the company airfield at Filton, Bristol on June 23, 1935. With a wing span of 96 feet it was the largest aircraft the com- pany had built to date, but not, by far the largest type then flying in the world. Its size did however preclude landings in some fields that might offer themselves in an emergency. On this occasion in early 1939 the 27 seat 130 was able to land safely in a field presently bordered by Forest Road, Roebuck Road and Fowler Road, Redbridge. The description given in the history books - of Chigwell - is incorrect by a matter of a few dozen yards. Having landed, without further damage, repaired the fault, and prepared to return to the air, it was sheer bad luck that followed.
