  • Master Narrative Ours Is the Epic Story of the Royal Navy, Its Impact on Britain and the World from Its Origins in 625 A.D
    NMRN Master Narrative Ours is the epic story of the Royal Navy, its impact on Britain and the world from its origins in 625 A.D. to the present day. We will tell this emotionally-coloured and nuanced story, one of triumph and achievement as well as failure and muddle, through four key themes:- People. We tell the story of the Royal Navy’s people. We examine the qualities that distinguish people serving at sea: courage, loyalty and sacrifice but also incidents of ignorance, cruelty and cowardice. We trace the changes from the amateur ‘soldiers at sea’, through the professionalization of officers and then ships’ companies, onto the ‘citizen sailors’ who fought the World Wars and finally to today’s small, elite force of men and women. We highlight the change as people are rewarded in war with personal profit and prize money but then dispensed with in peace, to the different kind of recognition given to salaried public servants. Increasingly the people’s story becomes one of highly trained specialists, often serving in branches with strong corporate identities: the Royal Marines, the Submarine Service and the Fleet Air Arm. We will examine these identities and the Royal Navy’s unique camaraderie, characterised by simultaneous loyalties to ship, trade, branch, service and comrades. Purpose. We tell the story of the Royal Navy’s roles in the past, and explain its purpose today. Using examples of what the service did and continues to do, we show how for centuries it was the pre-eminent agent of first the British Crown and then of state policy throughout the world.

Journalists wrote about it at the time, many people who were involved wrote about it in the immediate years that followed, and historians have tried to put it all together. The issues of foreign policy at the strategic level and the military operations that took place in this period have been especially well covered. However, the question of military strategic alternatives in this important era of British foreign policy has been less studied.

  • Westland - a Yeovil Centenary 2015 Marks the Centenary of Aircraft Construction in Yeovil
    Westland - A Yeovil Centenary 2015 marks the centenary of aircraft construction in Yeovil. The company has its origin with Petters Ltd: Petters were initially famous for their domestic ironware made at the Nautilus Works, and were later well known for their diesel engines. Petters’ aviation department was formed in 1915 by the Petter twins - Percy and Ernest. At the time aircraft construction in Britain was expanding rapidly to meet the needs of the First World War. The aircraft department was styled Westland Aircraft Works (Branch of Petters Ltd), with telegraphic address ‘Aircraft’, Yeovil. The company built a variety of types during the First World War including the following: One of the first 12 aircraft to be built by Westland, a Short 184 Short 184 seaplane: twelve aircraft, first aircraft delivered January 1916 Short Admiralty Type 166 seaplane: twenty, first aircraft delivered July 1916 Sopwith 1½ Strutter: seventy-five, delivery from late 1916 AIRCO DH4: at least 125 (some sources 140 or 150) AIRCO DH9 AIRCO DH9A Vickers Vimy: twenty-five aircraft Westland N1b Scout Westland Wagtail Westland Weasel Early Westland built aircraft, including the Short 184, Short 166 and 1½ Strutter, were delivered by rail, prior to the establishment of an airfield next to the works, the airfield coming into use in April 1917. Westland was responsible for the DH9A, which was transformed from the AIRCO DH9 by the use of the American Liberty engine. AIRCO would normally have carried out this development, but were too busy with contracts for the DH10. At least 350 DH9A were built by Westland.

  • On the Early History of Spinning and Spin Research in the UK Part 3: the Period 1940 to 1949
    Journal of Aeronautical History Paper 2019/05 On the early history of spinning and spin research in the UK Part 3: the period 1940 to 1949 Brian Brinkworth Waterlooville UK Abstract This third part of a study of the history of spinning and spin research in the UK covers the decade of the 1940s, which was dominated by almost five years of the Second World War. New types of aircraft were required to replace obsolete ones and to fill changing operational needs, though they were subject to essentially the same spin testing procedures as in the pre-war period. Testing with dynamic models continued in the vertical Free Spinning Tunnel at the Royal Aircraft Establishment, and at full-scale at the Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment. In the later years of the war, the first squadrons of jet-propelled types were formed, followed by the appearance of aircraft with new configurations for flight in the compressible range. Although little fundamental research on spinning could be undertaken in wartime conditions, progress continued, mainly through empirical developments in the model testing methods. These included refinement of the modelling by, for example, representing the angular momentum of engines and propellers, and of the test procedures to improve the agreement between the outcome of a model test and that of the corresponding aircraft test at full-scale. These were significant advances, which were made at the expense of greater complexity in the methods employed. 1. Introduction 1.1 Spinning and recovery The development in Britain of an understanding of the spinning of aircraft and of means of recovering from spins has been reviewed previously in this journal, covering the earlier periods from 1909 to 1929 (1) and from 1930 to 1939 (2).
