October 2014 Screenshot Compeon— “Fly2” “Hard Le Out of Liverpool” by Jason Weaver (UKV1479) Allan’s Facts: 1) Newspapers were originally published as broadsheets because the Brish govern‐ ment began taxing newspapers in 1712 based on the number of their pages. 2) Canary Wharf gets it's name from the me when fruit was unloaded there from the Canary Islands. 3) More pases are sold in Mexico than Cornwall. 4) Clocks rotate ‘clockwise’ because early inventors wanted to replicate the fact that the sun rises on your le hand side and sets on the right the same as a sundial. Noon, when the sun is at it’s highest point, is replicated by the hands being in their highest posion. If clocks had been invented in the southern hemisphere the hands would have probably rotated in the opposite direcon. 1

Straight and Level Flight

The next in the series of basics for the Cessna 172 looks at maintaining straight and level ﬂight in the cruise. Easy!!!! But try it in diﬀering weather condions for good pracce.

Aer a normal take oﬀ and climb, adjust the power to cruise speed and RPM. (Normally 110KIAS and 2500 rpm).

Trim the aircra to maintain a hands‐off atude. This means you should ad‐ just the trim wheel (usually nose down first to maintain level flight) so that any pressure applied to the yoke is released and you ought to be able to take your hands off the yoke.

The response to trimming takes a while to sele so give the aircra me to respond and make adjustments slowly with small movements of the trim wheel.

Look ahead and select an outside reference point.

Maintain the nose of the aircra constant in relaon to the horizon and wingps equidistant above the horizon...

If the right wing is low, correct by using right aileron plus right rudder pressure. Again – slight adjust‐ ments rather than large movements!

By: Jim Lowery 8

Fly UK Flying Club

If the le wing is low, correct by using right aileron plus right rudder pressure.

Aer correcons, neutralise the controls and check trim.

Check the airspeed indicator for constant speed

Check the heading indicator for constant heading.

Maintain co‐ordinaon by keeping the ball of the turn co‐ordinator in the centre.

Set the moveable dot on the atude indicator to the horizon line and maintain a constant altude.

Check the almeter for constant altude, making small correcons with the yoke and larg‐ er ones immediately with pitch and throle.

The vercal speed indicator should sele and remain at 0.

Enjoy your ﬂight! By: Jim Lowery 9

Fly UK Training Academy RNAV Approach

Area Navigaon (RNAV) is a method of instrument ﬂight rules (IFR), that enables an aircra to navigate within a network of navigaon beacons without the need to ﬂy directly to or from ground‐based navigaon aids such as a VOR, TACAN or NDB.

An RNAV approach is an approach that relies on area navigaon. For example, it may con‐ tain waypoints that you have to fly to sequenally, and these waypoints are defined only by longitude and latude, or by some other means independent of any ground‐based navi‐ gaon device. Usually these waypoints and their heights are entered by the pilots into their GPS unit or in the Flight Management System (FMS). Autopilot funcons can then fly the RNAV path automacally.

RNAV was developed in the 1960s, and the ﬁrst such routes were published in the 1970s. In January 1983 the FAA revoked all RNAV routes in the conguous United States due to the fact most commercial aircra were using Ineral Navigaon Systems (INS) rather than the ground‐based beacons. RNAV was reintroduced aer the large‐scale introducon of satellite navigaon.

Training Academy Waing Times: At this moment we have no delay anymore so welcome to join us.

Soon to expect:  Training night for new pilots on IVAO.  Second training night for new pilots on VATSIM.  New training materials are in the process of renewal.

A Message From The Editor

Since taking on the job of editor for Skyways, here at Fly UK, I really have expanded on certain skills that are crucial to keeping Skyways its best. It's coming up to my ﬁrst year as editor of Skyways in January and I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all who have contributed to Skyways through the 6 edions I've produced. This includes the depart‐ ments who provide us with reports detailing either a teaching of a subject or an informa‐ ve insight into what that department has been doing since the past edion.

I'm intrigued by the change that has been implemented within Skyways since its ﬁrst release almost a year ago. While on the topic of change, we can expect an overhaul of de‐ signs for 2015 including new page headers. I would like to urge all of those keen 'screenshoter's' to send in (by e‐mail: skyways@ﬂyuk.aero) some new page header shots for possible inclusion for next year's edions.

I'm glad that throughout this previous year some really interesng arcles have been submied which, we all have enjoyed and learnt from. I'd therefore like to ask that if you have any arcles or submissions that you wish to be publish in Skyways, please do send them in (e‐mail: skways@ﬂyuk.aero). The deadline date for the next issue is always on the back page of the current magazine issue.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank Jordan McTiﬃn, on behalf of the Oper‐ aons Team, for all his work and connued support for Fly UK as he steps down as Head of Operaons aer a number of years of ensuring that our ﬂight schedules and routes are maintained.

I hope that everyone enjoyed Halloween. Those that took children ‘trick or treang’ I do hope you got back in one piece. And to those few that went ‘trick or treang’ yourself, I’m sure you came back with a handful of midnight snacks.

The me of year is now approaching for Christmas. This is the last edion of Skyways now unl January, in the new year, therefore I would like to take the opportunity to wish everybody a very Merry Christmas and a joyful New Year. And I pray that your Christmas will be prosperous for you and your family.

Yours Faithfully, Craig Tyler

The Berlin Airli Flight—Fly UK Flying Club Event—19th October: 13:00z

The October Event was aended by 17 pilots and as this was a special event we encouraged pilots to ﬂy only pre‐ 1949 aircra, liing the weight limit for the event, so there was a selecon of Lancaster's, DC3’s and DC4’s.

The simulator was set to 1430hrs on 14th November (chosen be‐ cause on that day in 1948 there were the most number of air‐ cra ﬂown). A full load of cargo was to be on board and fuel topped up to max. for take‐oﬀ. (There was no chance to refuel in Berlin).

Air Traffic Control played a big part in the event – and to be more realisc in 1948 terms the ATC used PlanG to control – a fantasic feat in itself when usually ATC are used to using sophis‐ cated soware in modern mes. Flying a narrow corridor into Berlin with simple instruments and only NDB’s to track meant that the Russians were constantly monitoring the route and harassing pilots who strayed too close to the corridor perimeters. So was the case with our flight, and some Fly UK pilots were able to fill that role which added another degree of realism to the flight – even one of the controllers couldn’t resist the challenge and spent some me in the chase!!

The arrival at Berlin was the next challenge, since the ﬂight me meant that it was dark upon arrival and even with clever vectoring from ATC geng down safely wasn’t easy.

With so many aircra arriving in a short space of me, allowing two minutes to unload cargo, then geng back into the air for a swi departure to our desna‐ on gave ATC their next headache but was managed without too many problems.

Inevitably the FSD server proved a bit of a problem towards the end, but was overcome with a backup, so the event was able to conclude with a great sense of achievement for all who took part.

Thanks to all who took part and gave their me to make the day a success, but I want to menon and thank especially, Thomas McGreevy who developed the plan for the event and also Oliver Rhodes who did a magnificent job with ATC on the day. This was a major departure from usual operaons for the Flying Club and its success was down to all who took part in the planning and preparaon for the flight – not to forget all of the pilots who flew on the day.

We hope to be able to build upon this event and I’m sure that in the not too distant future something just as ex‐ cing will be in our schedule!

A Brief History

At the end of WW2 Berlin was situated in the Soviet sector of East Germany. The western half of the city was controlled by the Brish, American and French whilst the Eastern half was controlled by the Soviets.

In 1948 there was a diﬀerence of opinion between the major pow‐ ers as to how Berlin should be rebuilt. This resulted in Stalin wanng the allies out of the city. On June 24th 1948 the Soviets closed all roads, railways and rivers into the city, eﬀecvely blockading it.

The situaon quickly became grave as some 2 million Berliners needed supplies.

The allies agreed to set up three 20mile wide air corridors from Western occupied Germany into Berlin allowing access for supplies. The Frankfurt‐Berlin Southern corridor some 216miles long. The Hamburg‐Berlin Northern corridor some 117miles long. The Westbound exit corridor to Wunsdorf and beyond.

It was determined that some 1600 tons of supplies were needed daily not including coal and liquid fuel. This then was the beginning of the Berlin Airli which ran for a year, 24 hours a day.

You can read more here. And watch a clip ATC 1948.

Some interesng facts  Around 277,569 ﬂights delivered 2.3 million tons of supplies.  A total of 101 pilots deaths were recorded; mainly due to crashes.  No aircra were shot down.  The blockade was lied on 12th May 1949.  The Berlin Airli became the greatest humanitarian act in the 20th Century.

Altogether, a total of 692 aircra were engaged in the Berlin Airli, more than 100 of which belonged to civilian opera‐ tors, these are some of them that ﬂew…  Avro Lancaster  Avro Lincoln  Avro York  Avro Tudor  Avro Lancastrian  Boeing C‐97 Stratofreighter  Bristol Type 170 Freighter  Consolidated B‐24 Liberator  Consolidated PBY Catalina  Douglas C‐54 Skymaster and Douglas DC‐4  Douglas C‐74 Globemaster  Douglas C‐47 Skytrain and Douglas DC‐3 (UK: Dakota)  Fairchild C‐82 Packet  Handley Page Hasngs  Handley Page Halifax Halton  Junkers JU 52/3M (Operated brieﬂy by France)  Lockheed C‐121A Constellaon  Short Sunderland  Vickers VC.1 Viking
