  • Dog Demo Tour of USA and Canada 1969
    A Personal Retrospective View of the Dog Demo Team Visit to the USA and Canada 50 years on By Michael Hall During the months of 1969, I was employed on the RAF Police Dog Demonstration Team based at RAF Debden. I had already served 12 months with the Team when there arose several rumours of a proposed tour of North America and Canada being planned. These are my recollections of that ‘once in a lifetime’ event which took place 50 years ago. In preparing this retrospective, I am indebted to Steve Davies and to Rod Inwood, the RAF Police Association archivist, who both supplied some ‘missing’ information (stuff I had forgotten!). That summer the Team appeared at the Royal Tournament in London and other events around the country as the rumours of the ‘American Tour’ intensified. Finally, at a meeting at Debden, the rumours were confirmed and I was told that my name was included in the Team of 12 handlers who would be going. Other handlers selected were Cpl Dennis Cockerell to be team leader, Cpls Mick Chidgey, Jack Johnson, Hedley (Chalky) White, Phil Andrews, George Philp, Ken Hodgeson, John Judd, Roger Clarke, Vic Aitken and Dave Spence. In Command would be Fg Off Peter Brough, assisted by Sgt Danny Holden. Sixteen of the best Demo dogs were selected to go. The Demo routine was amended slightly to fit in with other military performances as part of a large touring event similar to that of the London Royal Tournament. The production, entitled ‘The British Tournament and Tattoo’ was militarily controlled by Col.

    The economics of the UK aerospace industry: A transaction cost analysis of defence and civilian firms Ian Jackson PhD Department of Economics and Related Studies University of York 2004 Abstract The primaryaim of this thesisis to assessvertical integration in the UK aerospace industrywith a transactioncost approach. There is an extensivetheoretical and conceptualliterature on transactioncosts, but a relativelack of empiricalwork. This thesisapplies transaction cost economics to the UK aerospaceindustry focusing on the paradigmproblem of the make-or-buydecision and related contract design. It assesses whetherthe transactioncost approachis supported(or rejected)by evidencefrom an originalsurvey of theUK aerospaceindustry. The centralhypothesis is that UK aerospacefirms are likely to makecomponents in- housedue to higherlevels of assetspecificity, uncertainty, complexity, frequency and smallnumbers, which is reflectedin contractdesign. The thesismakes these concepts operational.The empiricalmethodology of the thesisis basedon questionnairesurvey dataand econometric tests using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) andlogit regressions to analysethe make-or-buy decision and the choiceof contracttype.

  • Case Study BAE Systems Eurofighter Typhoon
    Executive Summary Eurofighter Typhoon is the world’s most advanced swing-role combat aircraft. A highly agile aircraft, it is capable of ground-attack as well as air defence. With 620 aircraft on order, it is also the largest and most complex European military aviation project currently running. A collaboration between Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK, it is designed to meet air force requirements well into the 21st Century. Advanced electronics and state of the art onboard computers are critical to the Typhoon’s high performance and agility. These systems need to be safe, reliable and easily maintained over the estimated 25 year lifecycle of the aircraft. The Ada programming language was therefore the natural choice for Typhoon’s onboard computers. It provides a high-integrity, high-quality development environment with a well defined structure that is designed to produce highly reliable and maintainable real-time software. Typhoon is currently the largest European Ada project with over 500 developers working in the language. Tranche 1 of the project saw 1.5 million lines of code being created. BAE Systems is a key member of the Eurofighter consortium, responsible for a number of areas including the aircraft’s cockpit. As part of latest phase of the project (named “Tranche 2”) it needed a solution for host Ada compilation in the development of software for the Typhoon’s mission computers, as well as for desktop testing. BAE Systems selected GNAT Pro from AdaCore in 2002 for this mission-critical and safety-critical area of the project. AdaCore has been closely involved with the Ada language since its inception and was able to provide a combination of multi-language technology and world-leading support to BAE Systems.

  • The Finnish Air Force BAE Systems Hawk
    The Finnish Air Force t Hawk 66 Hawk 51 BAE Systems Hawk The BAE Systems Hawk is a British single-engined two-seat advanced jet trainer. The Finnish Air Force's Hawks bear the military designation HW and are operated by Fighter Squadron 41 of the the Air Force Academy, primarily in advanced and tactical training roles. In the Hawk, a cadet pursuing a fighter pilot's career gets his or her first taste of jet flying after having learnt basic flying skills at the controls of a piston-engined aircraft. The first (advanced) Hawk training phase, designated HW 1, starts during the second year of cadets' studies in the National Defence University and consists of Hawk type rating, navigation, instrument flying, aerobatics, formation flying, and night flying. The next (lead-in) phase, known as HW 2, focuses on tactical training and consists of basic air-to-air and air-to-ground work before students progress to the more demanding Hornet multi-role fighter. The Hawk can also carry air sampling pods that were used extensively during the volcanic ash crisis in the spring of 2010. The Hawk has has limited engagement capability against attack aircraft, helicopters and other equivalent targets under favorable conditions. The Hawk is also flown by the Air Force's official display team the Midnight Hawks, in which case the team's four aircraft are fitted with smoke generators for enhanced visual effect. Team pilots are flight instructors. During the 2017 display season six aircraft used by the team received a special blue-and-white livery in celebration of the 100th anniversary of Finland’s independence.

    THE JET AGE AND HELICOPTERS raf100schools.org.uk HISTORY OF MODERN AIRCRAFT TECHNOLOGY AND THE RAF The historical information here explores some of the basic technical information about aircraft and how they have affected events and how events have affected aircraft. There are two key focuses: the jet age (development of the fighter jet) and the impact of the helicopter. Anyone using this information is advised to watch the film Jet Age and Helicopters carefully to understand some of the technical information. EARLY AIRCRAFT The Industrial Revolution introduced huge technological and scientific changes to many people, especially those living in Europe and the Americas. The development of engines and the use of man-made power, such as steam, made a significant difference to industrial output and to travel. One of the earliest types of engine invented was the early piston engine.

C ONTENTS TO J UNE 2017 AIRFIELD REVIEW The Journal of the Airfield Research Group The journal was initially called Airfield Report , then ARG Newsletter, finally becoming Airfield Review in 1985. The number of pages has varied from initially just 6, occasio- nally to up to 60 (a few issues in c.2004). Typically 44, recent journals have been 48. There appear to have been three versions of the ARG index/ table of contents produced for the magazine since its conception. The first was that by David Hall c.1986, which was a very detailed publication and was extensively cross-referenced. For example if an article contained the sentence, ‘The squadron’s flights were temporarily located at Tangmere and Kenley’, then both sites would appear in the index. It also included titles of ‘Books Reviewed’ etc Since then the list has been considerably simplified with only article headings noted. I suspect that to create a current cross-reference list would take around a day per magazine which equates to around eight months work and is clearly impractical. The second version was then created in December 2009 by Richard Flagg with help from Peter Howarth, Bill Taylor, Ray Towler and myself.
