Fly Navy Heritage Trust Supporter Development Manager Based at Royal Naval Air Station Yeovilton, Somerset The Fly Navy Heritage Trust is a registered charity that preserves and promotes the Nation’s Naval Aviation Heritage. The Royal Naval Air Service and its successor the Fleet Air Arm have played a major part in the history of the nation and the charity raises money to keep a Heritage collection of rare and historically significant Royal Navy aircraft flying at air shows and events around the country. It also supports the Fleet Air Arm Museum and Fleet Air Arm Memorial Church. Based at Royal Naval Air Station Yeovilton, Somerset, the Trust has an exciting opportunity for a professional fundraiser with a membership body background to help grow the Trust’s Supporter base and increase its annual giving income stream. You will be responsible for developing and implementing creative initiatives, turning support into membership and membership into regular giving.

The British Commonwealth and Allied Naval Forces' Operation with the Anti
THE BRITISH COMMONWEALTH AND ALLIED NAVAL FORCES’ OPERATION WITH THE ANTI-COMMUNIST GUERRILLAS IN THE KOREAN WAR: WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE OPERATION ON THE WEST COAST By INSEUNG KIM A dissertation submitted to The University of Birmingham For the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham May 2018 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines the British Commonwealth and Allied Naval forces operation on the west coast during the final two and a half years of the Korean War, particularly focused on their co- operation with the anti-Communist guerrillas. The purpose of this study is to present a more realistic picture of the United Nations (UN) naval forces operation in the west, which has been largely neglected, by analysing their activities in relation to the large number of irregular forces. This thesis shows that, even though it was often difficult and frustrating, working with the irregular groups was both strategically and operationally essential to the conduct of the war, and this naval-guerrilla relationship was of major importance during the latter part of the naval campaign.

Newsletter of Canadian Naval Aviators and Associates
The Newsletter of Canadian Naval Aviators and Associates Toronto, Ontario, Canada June 2011 Last year, we reported that the Sheriff had called BOTH of us for jury duty, though we had both been called in recent years. On the first time, Deb had been able to claim immunity because she was still in the forces. In my case, the year passed without my being called. On last New Year’s Eve, we were able to toast our freedom; however, the first mail of the new year brought a summons dated in late December, ordering me to do my duty. The summons came with a set of ‘frequently asked questions’ that covered most of my needs, but there was one point that I needed clarified. A call to the Sheriff’s office reached a clerk who was able to answer the question. Out of the blue, she asked me if I wanted to be relieved from duty. While I discussed the pros and cons, she suddenly told me that she had just removed me from the list as not being qualified. Formidable! Later in the year in a smaller community nearby, a judge called all his prospective jurors together and asked them explain why so many had tried to be relieved of their duty. It seems that many are called and few want to be chosen. Another year has passed, and it has not been a good one for me. A chronic problem has turned into a severe one, though how severe will not be known for some time. After several months of debilitating and confusing symptoms, I have been diagnosed with bladder cancer, which now has spread.

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.

Mach 2 Magazine May 2020
Mach 2 Concorde magazine FOCUS ON ENGINEERING Concorde operations through the decades Concorde Watch Life under lockdown Issue 26 May 2020 Mach 2 May 2020 Introduction Keeping Concorde in operation – from the first flights of the prototypes to the final journeys of the fleet aircraft – was both an awesome achievement and a monumental feat of aero engineering. In this issue we look at the British engineering opera- tions, from the earliest flights to the end of British Airways services. Three of the engineers who made these Concorde flights possible recall the challeng- es and triumphs of their work. The current COVID-19 crisis has affected com- munities all over the world. The specialists and volunteers who take care of the Concordes are no exception. The museums are currently closed to visitors, but in Concorde Watch we bring you a brief update on each of the aircraft, together with information on fund-raising drives for G-BBDG and G-BOAF. Very best wishes to all the Concorde maintenance teams, all of Mach 2’s readers, and your families – please stay safe, wherever you are.
