September proved to be another strong month for civil movements and the military made a better showing with an exercise in and around the Solway, then good participation in Joint Warrior 2015/2 with a naval live firing exercise involving helicopters and MRPA continuing as this is typed. - All produced first time visitors. Elsewhere the annual Dunhill Classic links golf tournament boosted exec jet and general aviation movements at Dundee and Edinburgh.

We have now reached the actual SCAN 50th anniversary date - the editor was pleased to hear recently from the second editor, Ricky Clarkson (1969-70) who recalled the day when he went to Edinburgh to find out about what being Editor of SCAN involved, and returned to Glasgow with the duplicator and typewriter to start on the next issue!. Any younger readers may need further explanation of what these two devices were! Briefly -the 1960s production process involved the creation of a carbon stencil on a portable manual typewriter which was then wrapped around the pre-inked drum of the duplicator. This in turn was hand cranked multiple times to create back to back foolscap pages which were then collated in page order (usually by walking round a table as a group activity!), stapled, folded twice, enveloped, stamped and finally put into pillar boxes in the hope that the GPO would not weigh the contents! At about the same time a man landed on the moon!

Correcting OC404 Falcon 2000 N510CT was actually photographed at Prestwick and not Edinburgh.

Finally Alan McKnight who has been the Prestwick movements section sub editor for over 20 years has indicated that he would like to give this up as soon as a successor can be found. If you are interested and can help please contact the Editor. Many thanks to Alan for his sterling work over the years.

ACCIDENTS & INCIDENTS 2 January 2015 Airport Saab 340B, G-LGNN At approximately 65 KIAS during an attempted takeoff in strong and gusty crosswind conditions, the aircraft swung to the left and departed the paved surface. The power levers were not selected to ground idle and the aircraft came to a halt with a collapsed nose landing gear, 250 m after leaving the paved surface. There were no injuries. The aircraft was subsequently declared uneconomic to repair. History of the flight The aircraft had been prepared for a Commercial Air Transport flight from Stornoway Airport to with 26 passengers and three crew on board; the commander was the Pilot Flying (PF) and the co- pilot was the Pilot Monitoring (PM). At 0825 hrs the aircraft was taxied towards Holding Point A1 for a departure from 18. At 0832 hrs G-LGNL was cleared to enter the runway from Holding Point A1 and take off, and the ATC controller transmitted that the surface wind was from 270° at 27 kt. The commander commented to the co-pilot that the wind was across the runway and that there was no tailwind. As the aircraft taxied onto the runway, the co-pilot applied almost full right aileron input consistent with a cross- wind from the right. The commander advanced the power levers, and the engine torques increased symmetrically. The commander instructed the co-pilot to “set takeoff power”. Approximately one second after this call, the engine torques began to increase symmetrically, reaching 100% as the aircraft accelerated through 70 kt. During the early stages of the takeoff, left rudder was applied and the aircraft maintained an approximately constant heading. As the aircraft continued accelerating, the rudder was centralised, after which there was a small heading change to the left, then to the right, then a rapid heading change to the left causing the aircraft to deviate to the left of the runway centreline. The pilot applied right Scottish Air News NO 433 rudder but although the aircraft changed heading to the right in response, it did not alter the aircraft’s track significantly and the aircraft skidded to the left, departing the runway surface onto the grass at an IAS of 80 kt. The power levers remained at full power as the aircraft crossed a disused runway and back onto grass. During this period the nose landing gear collapsed before the aircraft came to a halt approximately 38 m left of the edge of the runway and 250 m from where it first left the paved surface. After the aircraft came to a halt, the captain saw that the propellers were still turning and so called into the cabin for the passengers to remain seated. One of the passengers shouted for someone to open the emergency exit but the cabin crew member instructed the passengers not to do so because the propellers were still turning. The co-pilot observed that the right propeller was still turning so operated the engine fire extinguishers to shut down both engines. When the passenger seated in the emergency exit row on the right of the aircraft saw that the right propeller had stopped, he decided to open the exit. He climbed out onto the wing and helped the remaining passengers leave the aircraft through the same exit, instructing them to slide off the rear of the wing onto the ground. The left propeller was still turning at the time the right over-wing exit was opened and the passenger seated in the left-side emergency exit row decided not to open the left exit. The crash alarm was activated by ATC at 0833 hrs. An aircraft accident was declared and the aerodrome emergency plan was put into action. When the Rescue and Fire Fighting Services (RFFS) arrived at the scene, passengers were still exiting the aircraft and the left propeller was still turning. After leaving the aircraft, the cabin crew member confirmed to the RFFS that all passengers had exited the cabin and had been accounted for outside. The passengers were taken to the fire station and then on to the passenger terminal. There were no injuries. Information from the crew The commander had not flown for 14 days. He reported that he went to sleep at approximately 2230 hrs the night before the flight but woke at about 2345 hrs and was “very restless thereafter” until he arose at 0445 hrs. The crew reported that, for a left-seat takeoff, the aircraft is kept straight on the runway to begin with by using nosewheel steering (NWS). The PF then transfers his left hand from the NWS wheel to the control yoke and calls ‘my controls’ when he has sufficient rudder authority to maintain directional control. Although the active runway was Runway 36, the commander elected to use Runway 18 because it was no less favourable for takeoff in the crosswind conditions. He decided to takeoff using 100% torque in case there were any gusts in the wind or the crosswind became partly a tailwind. He recalled that the FO held full right aileron as the aircraft began its takeoff run. He moved his hand from the NWS wheel to the control yoke when he felt he had rudder authority but the aircraft began to turn left “immediately and violently”. The commander could not recall calling for the takeoff to be rejected or reducing the power levers to ground idle. He reported that he said “emergency evacuation” to the co-pilot after the aircraft had come to rest. He did not recall whether the condition levers were set to off during the evacuation. The co-pilot recalled that the loss of control occurred after the “handover of control” when the speed was between 60 and 80 kt. The cabin crew member stated that, during the takeoff, the aircraft swung violently one way then the other before the ride became “very rough”. When the aircraft stopped, she stood up and asked whether anyone was injured. She heard the commander shout that the propellers were still turning and for the passengers to remain seated. She, therefore, walked through the cabin to instruct the passengers to remain seated. Although she saw the red emergency cabin call light, indicating an emergency public address was being made from the flight deck, she did not hear an evacuation command. She saw that a passenger had opened the over-wing exit on the right side of the aircraft but, because the right propeller had now stopped and he was helping passengers to exit the aircraft, she let him continue. Examination of the accident site Marks from all six tyres were visible on the runway from about 200 m after the taxiway where the aircraft entered Runway 18. These tracks diverged to the left and then departed the paved surface after another 100m. The tracks remained visible on the unpaved surface beside the runway until the point where the aircraft came to rest, a further 250 m, but were not visible for the period when the aircraft crossed a disused paved runway. The rubber marks left by the tyres indicated that the tyres were not rolling straight ahead and, as the aircraft approached the side of the runway, the geometry of the marks indicated that the aircraft was progressively yawing to the right of its direction of travel. Calculations indicated that this yaw angle reached a maximum of approximately 14° just after the aircraft entered the grass beside the runway and it remained fairly constant until the aircraft reached the disused runway. There were no tyre marks across the disused runway but when they reappeared in the grass on the far side the aircraft was no longer yawed. Shortly after this point the ground markings indicated where the nose landing gear collapsed. The runway surface was grooved and in good condition with no significant previous rubber deposits in the area of the tyre tracks from this event. Due to the rapidly changing environmental conditions a surface friction measurement was not carried out. Examination of the aircraft The aircraft came to rest with its nose on the ground as the nose landing gear had broken off rearwards under the fuselage. Both propellers had struck the ground and the outer portion of each propeller blade had NO 434 Scottish Air News broken off. The radome and lower forward fuselage sustained substantial damage including tears which allowed mud and water to be forced in to the lower fuselage and avionics bays. The damage did not affect the cabin area, emergency exits or passenger egress. There was no damage to any of the seats or their harnesses. Recorded information The aircraft was fitted with a 2-hour CVR and a Flight Data Recorder (FDR) which recorded just over 52 hours of operation including the accident takeoff. The FDR recorded a number of parameters, including lateral acceleration, aircraft heading and rudder pedal and surface position. NWS angle, NWS wheel position, brake pressures and groundspeed were not recorded, nor were they required to be. During taxi towards Runway 18, the flight crew performed a flight control check, consisting of applying full deflections of the control wheel and the rudder pedals. Examination of the aircraft after the accident revealed significant damage and mud ingress in the forward avionics bay which was likely to have caused the premature end to the recording. Also, due to this significant damage, no system testing could be performed to confirm this. Previous takeoff FDR data from G-LGNL was analysed to assess the takeoff acceleration profile. The accident flight acceleration fitted well with that of previous flights up to the point where the aircraft departed the paved surface suggesting no issues with dragging brakes. The nosewheel steering system The nosewheel steering (NWS) is hydraulically operated by a single actuator which is controlled by a wheel on the left side of the cockpit. To steer, the wheel must be pushed down to engage mechanically with the steering system and operate an electrical switch to open the steering hydraulic shutoff valve. When the wheel is released the hydraulic power is removed and the nosewheel castors unless it is deflected by more than 20º (+/- 5º) in which case a solenoid steering brake locks the steering system preventing further deflection. Due to damage sustained, it was not possible to conduct a detailed check of the steering system and its rigging. However, a visual examination of the system did not reveal any pre-existing defects. Analysis The attempted takeoff During the attempted takeoff, the rudder was central from 40 kt and remained so until approximately 65 kt. Between approximately 52 and 65 kt, the aircraft turned right slightly before it turned left sharply at approximately 65 kt. Given that the rudder was central, this change of direction might have been caused by one, or a combination of the following factors: a. Differential braking b. Asymmetric thrust c. A change in wind speed and direction d. A NWS input Data from the FDR showed that thrust was applied symmetrically throughout the takeoff run, and the manufacturer did not consider that the data for longitudinal acceleration and indicated airspeed supported the use of differential braking. The crew reported that the swing to the left took place at the handover of control, as the commander released the NWS control and moved his hands to the control yoke, and there might have been a change in NWS input as the nosewheel began to caster. However, because the rudder was in the neutral position and would have had no effect, any NWS input prior to the swing was probably in the ‘turn left’ sense, to oppose the weathercock effect tending to turn the aircraft into the crosswind. In that case, any change in NWS input would have been in the wrong sense to cause a sharp swing to the left. It was possible that, immediately before the commander released the NWS control, there was a marked drop in the wind speed. In this case, the extant left NWS input would probably have been more than that required to counter the lower crosswind and the aircraft would have begun to turn left. However, this possibility could not be confirmed as there was no data to show whether or not the aircraft had actually experienced a marked change in wind speed or direction. As the aircraft moved towards the edge of the runway, the pilot applied right rudder in an attempt to return to the runway centreline. With the aircraft still on the runway, the nose of the aircraft began to turn right in response to the rudder input but the main landing gear maintained their track towards the runway edge. The track of the nose landing gear moved towards that of the right landing gear, indicating that the aircraft was skidding left as it departed the paved surface. Takeoff technique The technique for controlling the direction of the aircraft on the runway is to use rudder assisted by NWS at low speeds because the rudder has reduced effectiveness below 40 kt. Although the left pilot’s hand should remain on the NWS control until 80 kt (for directional control in case of a rejected takeoff), NWS should not normally be used above 60 kt. When rudder is used, the requirement for NWS to assist directional control will reduce progressively as speed increases above 40 kt and rudder effectiveness increases. It is likely that no assistance will be required by 60 kt and, therefore, there will be no step-change in NWS directional effect when the pilot releases the steering control. During this attempted takeoff, rudder was approximately neutral from 40 kt, the point at which it would have become effective, and directional control was probably maintained through NWS alone (asymmetric thrust or differential braking having been discounted). If Scottish Air News NO 435 rudder had been applied, there would have been a reduced NWS requirement at any given speed and therefore there would have been a reduced likelihood of a change directional effect when the NWS control was released. The lack of data showing NWS commands meant that these considerations could not be verified.

30 September 2015 Rotterdam Airport Saab 340B, G-LGNJ Loganair The aircraft, as flight LC843 from Rotterdam to Aberdeen with 18 people on board, was climbing out of Rotterdam's runway 06 when the crew stopped the climb at 2500 feet reporting a hydraulic failure. The aircraft entered a hold while the crew worked the checklists. The crew declared emergency reporting they would not have nose wheel steering following landing. The aircraft landed on Rotterdam's runway 06 about one hour after departure and slowed safely coming to a stop on the runway. Subsequently the crew reported a problem with the brakes pressure, the aircraft began to move slowly, the aircraft veered off the runway and came to a stop with all gear on soft ground. There were no injuries. The airport was closed for about six hours. The Dutch Safety Board reported they were investigating an occurrence with a small airliner at Rotterdam with a hydraulic failure affecting nose wheel steering.

Although its scheduled to operate between Canada and the Caribbean, there’s always a chance it will operate a Transat flight to Glasgow. ceased operations on 31 October 2015. The Boeing 717 operator was shut down in a controlled way after SAS decided to restructure its franchise operations. Cityjet have agreed with SAS Scandinavian Airlines to lease in and operate eight new Canadair Regional Jet 900 aircraft, from Spring 2016 onwards. As part of the deal Cityjet will acquire Blue1, although the Boeing 717 fleet will have already been phased out over the winter. In a separate announcement, Cityjet have ordered fifteen Sukhoi Superjet 100s, to replace its fleet of BAe RJ85s. Four will be delivered in 2016 with the first arriving in March, and eleven in 2017 with all being in service by November. The airline has also signed for ten options. Links Air The regional/ACMI operator, most recently seen operating flights out of Glasgow to the , has had its AOC revoked on 16 October, and suspended operations. Norwegian Having done some detective work, the latest with the Norwegian low cost operator is that there are currently FOUR subsidiary airlines, with a fifth on the way : Norwegian (ICAO code NAX, active fleet as of mid October two B733s, one B734 on lease from Go2Sky, 62 B738s, and six B788s); Norwegian Air International (ICAO code NAI, active fleet as of mid October 14 B738s based at Gatwick); Norwegian Air Norway (Code NAN, active fleet 16 B738s based Oslo); Norwegian Long Haul (ICAO code NLH, two B788s, based New York and Bangkok, two AOCs active, one in Ireland). A UK AOC has been secured (ICAO code IBK), though at the time of writing no formal name has been announced, all flights continuing to use NAX callsigns. The airline was recently quoted as being interested in operating Edinburgh to USA flights using Boeing 737MAX aircraft when they become available, and haven’t ruled out a multistop service, being the example quoted. At the end of October however, the airline confirmed an order for 19 Boeing 787-9 aircraft, adding to the 11 already on order. We guess they will have to go somewhere!

INDUSTRY NEWS Airbus will increase A320 family production to 60 aircraft per month from mid 2019, from four locations : in France, Finkenwerder in , Mobile, Alabama, USA, and Tianjin in China. ATC Lasham, together with ATC Southend, has gone into administration, throwing into doubt the future of aircraft maintenance at these well known spotter haunts. Following World War II, Dan Air established its engineering facilities at Lasham in 1954, and over the years Dan Air brought many types through their facilities there, including Bristol Freighters, Avro Yorks, Douglas DC-3s/7s, Airspeed Ambassadors, DH Comets, Boeing 727s, Boeing 707s, BAe 146s, and even their Airbus A300B4.

MILITARY NEWS There has been recent speculation that the RAF will order a number of P-8A Poseidon aircraft, to fulfil the role previously performed by the Nimrod. However, and in typical RAF/UK Government style, there is debate over the role the P-8s would fulfil. The RAF needs two distinct missions - maritime patrol and STARS (Surveillance Target Attack Radar System). The current RAF Sentinel aircraft perform a version of STARS, but its understood that any P-8 would have less capability, in terms of range and ceiling (the latter vital for STARS capability) than the Sentinel, if a dual role was specified. Maintaining two types would have cost implications, but one type would have drawbacks, and would carry two sets of equipment for just one mission. The US Navy/USAF has the same predicament, and is currently evaluating replacements for its E-8C JSTARS aircraft, with the Gulfstream G650, Bombardier Global 6000, and Boeing 737-700 as competing platforms. All of this is separate from another requirement, the Signals Intelligence NO 438 Scottish Air News (SIGINT) mission, previously performed by three Nimrod R.1 aircraft, and being replaced by three Boeing RC-135W Rivet Joint aircraft, which should see service until 2045.

And finally..... The US Department of Transportation has set up a task force charged with the creation of a registration process for unmanned aircraft systems, or drones, in response to public and government concerns over their use, particularly the danger to aircraft and people on the ground. It seems the important weight restriction is 55lbs, with all drones having an all up weight greater than this having to be registered. Drones below this weight may also have to be registered, so good luck to all those former toy balloon hunters (yes AN I’m looking at you :)) ) on your future US trips!

Aboyne: Fournier RF5 G-KCIG has relocated to Easterton with the same owner. Cumbernauld: The collection of Islander airframes being rebuilt is expanding again after last years’ clear out with G-BIIO arriving as F-HDEV on 24 Aug and reverting to its former reg on 25 Sep with Islander Aircraft Ltd. Dundee: PA28 G-BGKS has changed ownership from Tayside Aviation Ltd to G Simpson but remains based. Easterton: It seems that Midget Mustang G-IIJC never did come north with its Forres based owner (JN211) and is “Based Abroad” at RNAS Culdrose. Fournier RF5 G-KCIG has moved over from Aboyne. The damaged remains of Airtourer G-ATJC have been moved out of sight behind a mound on the airfield and easy to miss and Minimax G-CEDW is now just a small cockpit section and too small to consider any more (also Bonfire Night is approaching!). . One of the based flexwings was written off on 11 Oct in a ditching in the Cromarty Firth fortunately without injury and may turn out to be G-CDUH as that wasn’t present during a visit on 17 Oct. X’Air G-XIOO hasn’t arrived at the airfield yet (OC391) and is probably at the owners’ home in Lhanbryde for re-work. Glenrothes: Skyranger G-CIPR which was built here is now flying. Insch: A new resident is Ce150 G-BDUO with BA Nicholson & SJ Anderson which arrived in early September but as there is no hangar space available has flown north to Wick for shelter over the winter. Ce150 G- AWMT has also moved out again to Peterhead Longside for similar hangarage and both will return in the spring. Scottish Air News NO 439 Kirknewton – Latch Farm: Exotically registered WT9 Dynamic ZU-EVX was roaded in from down south during September is being kept in its purpose built trailer but how long it will be here for isn’t known. Whether it will ever fly locally is also not known but it has been cancelled from the South African Register to the UK but hasn’t been allocated G- marks yet. Confirming (OC391) Polaris FIB G-CIXI is not here. Leuchars: Confirming (OC391) RV7 G-CFWV was again flying from here (and not Kingsmuir) on 17 Oct, the FR24 track being very clear. Perth: CTSW G-CFGZ is a new resident for GR Cassie which arrived on 22 Sep after a night stop at East Fortune. Another new one is Eurostar G-FLYJ which arrived on 2 Oct for I Archer and also arriving that day was Christen built.Pitts S-2B Special G-OWTF which arrived with DP Curtis although it may move on in due course. Skyranger G-CCLF has changed owner to A Gilruth. The new Scotlands Charity Air Ambulance is an EC135 which has been appropriately registered G-SCAA with Bond Air Services Ltd and is the former G- SASB. When it arrives, Bo105 G-CDBS will be returned to Gloucestershire, the spare G-NDAA having departed there via a fuel stop at Blackpool on 9 Oct. MTO Gyroplane G-CGTF arrived from Peterhead Longside for a short stay while the owner undergoes a training course and another as yet unknown gyroplane is also due before the year-end for training before moving north to a new owner at Insch. A departure is Rallye G-OACI possibly to Thornhill or Buchlyvie as the owners have an address on Loch Lomond. Another on the move is Sportcruiser G-CFPA which after a year or so here with its Glasgow owner has moved away again destination unknown, possibly back to Strathaven? Two more arrivals for hangarage over the winter are G-NESE P2002 from Insch and Rc114 G-ZIPA from Longside which should return to those places in the spring. Europa G-IHCI is currently away being converted to tail-wheel configuration. Peterhead Longside: Ce150 G-AWMT from Insch is a temporary resident over the winter (see above). Newly arrived RV7 G-RVSA (SE339) has changed owner to J Stevenson. RC114 G-ZIPA which usually lives outside has moved to Perth for winter hangarage. Prestwick: Long-Ez G-OMJT has been sold away to a new owner at St Athan. Strathaven: Rans S6 G-MITE has been sold to DM Lonnen at an address in Helensburgh but is thought to remain based. It’s been replaced by Skyranger G-MARO with S Gavin t/a G-MARO Flying Group. Wick: Ce150 G-BDUO from Insch is a temporary resident over the winter (see above).

HELICOPTERS • Bond Offshore – S92: No sooner had we reported the non-flying status of G-VINF at Aberdeen (OC392) than it entered service on or around 21 Sep; The company has completed construction of a new 21,000sq ft hangar at Aberdeen located between Bond’s two passenger terminals on the east side of the airport. • Bristow – AW189: G-OENA arrived at Aberdeen from Norwich on 8 Oct for some maintenance but won’t become based: S92: confirming (OC392) G-MCGY arrived at Aberdeen on 29 Sep but but quickly moved on to Newquay; The next SAR aircraft G-MCGZ c/n 92-0262 was registered on 8 Oct, will also go there. • CHC Scotia – AS332L: Confirming (AP128) G-CHCI has left Aberdeen and is now at Rzeszow in . The remaining Aberdeen based aircraft G-CHCG, CHCH, PUMM and PUMO have also been shipped over there to join the rest in storage. • R44 G-CHKW has been active at both Glenrothes and Cumbernauld since arriving from on 18 Sep. We have shown this as “Based Abroad” for a number of years but wonder if with its Scottish address it has moved up here for some training with Heliair or perhaps now based at one of these airports?

MICROLIGHTS – G-Mxxx’s & FLEXWINGS • G-BYOW Blade has changed owners to P Szymanski & P Gadek in Edinburgh but remains based at East Fortune West. • G-CIUO PPHU Ekolot KR-010 Elf, a type of microlight motor glider has been registered to BK Harrison at a Glasgow address jointly with GE Steadman who has an address in Alberta, Canada. Mr Harrison owns other aircraft based at Strathaven but this one isn’t thought to be there and he has another unusual Polish built micro glider type G-CIIF which hasn’t been seen anywhere in Scotland yet. • G-MWVA Pegasus has been registered to W Frosina with an Aberdeen address and we await confirmation of where it will become based. • One of the three Easterton based flexwings, possibly G-CDUH Quik, was written off on 11 Oct (see above).

HOMEBUILDS, GYROCOPTERS, RESTORATIONS, PRESERVATION & INACTIVE • Kitfox G-LOST which disappeared from the hangar at Glenrothes in June 2013 is no longer Lost! It has turned up at Pine Lodge Auctions in Dunshalt village close to Auchtermuchty in Fife. • The Evans VP-2 project which recently resurfaced in the Peterhead area (SE340) was quickly sold on E- bay and is said to now be in the care of Neil Geddes at Bridge of Weir.

. mm i5-'- tiiiBSI^Tr " v«^ Scottish Air News NO 441 • The forward fuselage of B737-528 VP-BRV is now at Montrose Avenue in Hillington to become the centrepiece of a new restaurant area in a go-karting and leisure centre called “The Experience” which is being built in the former Rolls Royce factory. It was seen heading there on the M8 on 14 Oct and has come from Kemble where it was broken up. It came north via an exercise at RAF Honington and the rear fuselage section excluding the tail is at Stansted used by Swissport as a training aid. • WJ721 Canberra nose preserved in Gairloch has been with the Morayvia collection in Kinloss village since the summer on loan from the owner B Hudson and is undergoing some restoration. It is no longer connected with 832 Sqn Air Cadets. The museum is now located in the former Abbeylands primary school and only Nimrod XV244 which is a complete airframe remains on the airfield all other exhibits being noses plus the Sea King having moved here. • XX637 Bulldog painted as XX530 hasn’t been seen at Kinloss since 2008 and is presumed to have been scrapped as it hasn’t turned up anywhere else. It was badly damaged when being roaded there for display by 2175 Sqn ATC in 2007 and had it still been around its most likely that it would have gravitated into the care of Morayvia by now. • SAAB Safir G-ANOK, long stored on a farm at Yarrowford in the Borders and in which your section editor had a number of flights in the early 1970s when it was based at Edinburgh,is being advertised for sale at £5,000 so may move on elsewhere for rebuild shortly.

GLIDERS • Skylark BGA957/BGL which was reported to have moved to Portmoak from Falgunzeon is thought to have moved back to Dumfriesshire as it was seen with the visiting contingent from there on 19 Sep. • LS-4 G-CHKX not seen at Portmoak for a long time has been sold and is now with a new owner at Kenley. • Pirat G-DCZJ hasn’t been reported at Easterton since Oct 2102 but has a current C of A so we wonder if it’s been sold as the owner acquired G-CJTW from Portmoak last year. Or perhaps like LS-8 G-CHWS it is kept in Keith and trailered up to the airfield to fly. • The nose section from Bocian G-DDBX marked HBS from its days with the Highland Bocian Syndicate has yet again reappeared in the blister hangar by the Clubhouse at Portmoak. It’s probably always been here hidden among the junk! Badly damaged it came here for spares use from Easterton about four years ago after it was written off following a hangar roof collapse due to snow. The tail section with the registration is at Risely Sackville Lodge airstrip in Bedfordshire. • Pirat G-DDNT formerly at Drumshade with an owner in Forfar has moved to Portmoak to become based and was seen out of its trailer on 17 Oct. • ASW-19 G-DERR is new with Edinburgh University Sports Union at Portmoak - first seen there on 21 Sep.

BALLOONS • M Cowling no longer lives in Glencarse or flies from Perth and has moved south taking his balloons G- CCUE, G-OIIY and G-XPDA with him. Virgin G-VBFY which he flew has also departed (OC393). • Lindstrand LBL120s G-ENBD and G-DUBI plus LBL69 G-HSBC have been sold by their Stirling owner and are now registered in Poland, Congleton in Cheshire and Austria respectively.

BASED ABROAD • PA28 HAMR at Elstree has been sold having been replaced by G-OFDR (OC393). • The three Bo 105s G-BATC, G-TVAM and G-WAAN registered to South Georgia Heritage Trust at an address in Dundee and used in the South Atlantic Islands for spraying to keep the rat population down have returned to the UK at , as is normal at this time of the year. There is some uncertainty as to if this was their last trip to the southern hemisphere and if they will now be scrapped

FLY-IN REPORT SCOTTISH AERO CLUB COMMEMORATIVE DISPLAY, PERTH, 26 SEP 2015 The purpose of the event was to commemorate Lt Commander John “Jock” Moffat RNVR who is now 96 years old and commenced his flying training nearly 80 years ago. He has been a member of the SAC for over 30 years following a 40 year break from flying after his wartime service as a pilot in the Fleet Air Arm. It was whilst flying off HMS Ark Royal in 1941 that John was involved in his most celebrated war time engagement, the successful torpedoing of the German battleship Bismarck. What a hero! Sadly that’s where the excitement ended as on the day it was a fairly low-key local event with mainly based aircraft sitting on the grass in front of the hangar or taking part in the small flying display. Visitor participation from elsewhere in Scotland was limited to these few - G-AHUV Tiger Moth G-BIYJ PA18 G-EGPG PA18 G-ARNY Jodel G-BVHC G115 G-IDAY Skyfox G-AVEX Condor G-BVHE G115 G-NESE P2002 G-AWUE Jodel G-BVHG G115 G-VDOG Bird Dog G-AZWF Jodel G-BYHT Robin marked Army 24582 G-BDKH Emeraude G-CGTX Jungmann N3110J Maule G-BIID PA18 marked E.3B-599 N2530K Ce180 fuel stop airfields scanned

Local Notes: Another very good month, with visitors for all tastes. Beginning with military, the 3rd saw UC-35 166500 for a couple of nights while our own RAF put in appearances by Cranwell Kingairs for night- stops on the 15th and 22nd, plus some Squirrels on the 16th and 17th. C26 910502 (18th) and C146 95-3058 (20th) plus French Xingu 74 (18th and 21st) and German Transall 5109 (29th) completed the overseas contingent. The 29th also saw our last visit by a Boulmer Sea King, XZ590, as that base closed, the end of an era. There was a steady flow of biz-jets, most exotic being Phenom SP-AVP (6th, 8th), Premier YL-KSG (9th), HS125 LY-HCW (16th), Galaxy PR-OFT (17th), G650 SX-GSB (22nd) and Falcon 7X TC-KMR (29th). Airline charters included Belgian A320 OO-SNG (12th), B737 YL-PSH (16th), GoSky B737 OM-GTD and Travel Service B737 OK-TVX (both 18th) and Small Planet A320 SP-HAF (19th). BA sent B777 G-YMMC on a LHR service on the 3rd, while Virgin Red closed down on the 26th. The 17th saw an unusual visitor in the shape of DHC8-300 N800AW which night-stopped en-route Holland to . It was another 1m+ passenger month, the figure of 1,073,541, representing a 8.7% increase over September 2014. glasgow GLA / EGPF Alan Reid e-mail : [email protected]

LOCAL NOTES: USN visitors were in preparation for Exercise Joint Warrior 2015/2 which we will report in full next month. Shortage of ramp space meant that the Luftwaffe Tornadoes operated from Leeming but were frequently reported in transit north of the border Only one Typhoon departure was reported during the month - ZK336/FD of 1 Sqn to TMU, Coningsby. Tornado GR.4 departures from 15(R) Sqn to ATTAC CMU, Marham comprised ZA541/034 15/09, ZA587/055 20/09, ZA551/043 01/10 with replacements in the shape of ZA601/066 02/09 ex 31 Sqn, ZD742/090 15/09 ZG750/128 01/10, ZG752/129 06/10. The KDF C-130J and based 15(R) Sqn Tornadoes (supplemented by ZA405/014, ZA453/022 loaned from Marham) took part in Exercise Cobra Warrior (formerly known as CQWI ) which took place in and over Cumbria and Southern Scotland between 14/09 and 02/10 and may well have accounted for other unusual sightings These include night landings in the dark at Carlisle Airport in the late evening of 22/09 by ZZ173 Globemaster III RRR821(by far the largest aircraft ever to land - albeit briefly!) , ZH886 Hercules C.5 Zorro71, 11-5733 MC-130J USAF 67 SOS Strix 20 and two unidentified CV-22Bs Knife63/64 plus an unidentified Chinook. G-DDMV DA42 worked Spadeadam while Cobham Falcon 20s G-FFRA/RAO/L/S were reported earlier that evening over the Scottish Borders. tailfin

SPOTTING OVER THE YEARS by Graham Marchbank The Early Years - 1950s and 1960s An interest in early RAF Turnhouse airshows began as a ‘wean’ and at RAF recruitment drives in Edinburgh’s Meadows complete with Hurricane P2617 and Canberra cockpit. The cranes in the photo suggest the year is 1964 as Edinburgh University library is still under construction. I was none the wiser about a hobby that would take hold for the next half century. The unbelievable racket of an Air France Caravelle taking off at Manchester Ringway in ‘68 and the DC7 on the apron must have got me hooked, no doubt egged on by my cousin Peter - a local spotter. SCAN is by that time 3 years old. Easily seen from Meggetland

■. i Scottish Air News NO 473 sports fields in Edinburgh after school games on a Wednesday were RN (Airwork) Meteors bashing the runway 31 circuit. Distinguishing between a Vanguard’s Tynes and a Viscount’s Darts was another giant leap of progress. The days of the Channel Airways Scottish Flyer Viscount service were numbered. Telescopes. There was huge teenage snobbishness between owners of Hilkinson Pancratics and Swift ‘Swindles’ but I never owned either! So too airband radios. Some guys had Sanyos in a horrible brown leatherette case and I eventually bought a Wien Flight 4 from the long gone Shandwick Salerooms in Edinburgh just after decimalisation in ‘71 for £14.99. Not exactly pocketable but it did the job. Dougie Crowe spent his money more wisely on a new rock album every weekend. The Edinburgh spotters’ nick- names were legendary: Sponge, Fruit, Pickle, Scottish, Spout, Smee. Often there was just nothing to see so a game of footie with a tennis ball on the viewing terrace staved off the boredom. Suggestions were made I should join CSAG… … … …

SCAN and into the 1970s Edinburgh hosted plenty aging RAF metal - from Belfasts, Comets, Devons, Hastings and Shacks to Varsitys. Britannias visited regularly and of course 12AEF based Chipmunks kept the 26 circuit alive. “Bravo 32 downwind!“ The RN produced Canberras, Gannets, Hunters and Sea Princes to name but a few. The Army pitched in with Beavers and Sioux. But in 1970 pretty much all the commercial flights were domestic although I do recall a summer Channel Trident service to Rimini and Dan-Air and Channel Comets. But these were patchy seasonal services. So it was a diet of Cambrian, Aer Lingus and BEA Viscounts for the most part - huge excitement in the summer when BUIA Heralds to the Isle of Man would visit. Having said that we didn’t know we were about to lament the disappearance of Caledonian, Donaldson, Lloyd and Monarch Britannias or the Invicta and Bergen DC4s. Leuchars air show 1970 was my first, boosted as I recall, by two non-show related F-102s from Keflavik. The arrester nets at the end of Edinburgh’s runway 31 were rarely deployed and by ‘74 it was all change with the construction of the 07/25 runway and a new terminal. That hailed the end of the Eastern Scottish 38 Stirling bus down the Turnhouse Road which halted at the old airport. We had a great laugh in the mid 70s collating the A4 version of SCAN at Iain Gibson’s house. We’d launch about 600 envelopes down the chute at Edinburgh’s GPO on the unsuspecting night shift workers and I can tell you the air turned blue. Spells as Edinburgh branch organiser and then treasurer was quite rewarding if you could get a good speaker (Loganair and others did the honours) but it soon became a drag doing the VAT returns on airshow coach trip paperwork. I had time on my hands to edit SCAN briefly in 1979 and piece together its (by then) A5 booklet format. I’d then jump on the Honda 175 to deliver SCAN master pages to Fergus Abraham in Motherwell. Trips up to the old Edinburgh tower to do the logs were the bonus. Carrier visits to the Forth and football or rugby charters have been well documented in SCAN down the years. Cockpit visits should not go by without a mention - a quick word with crews at Edinburgh would often result in an invitation onboard. The Catair L1049 F-BRAD, DC3s and BEA Viscounts stand out. All before fences and security! Seeing Jock Stein at Glasgow airport is etched on my memory. Aberdeen FC get off a chartered flight at Edinburgh: Davie Robb; a giant of a man towering over Drew Jarvie! A minor rock moment - I remember Uriah Heep getting off a King Air. Sergeant Dan; Edinburgh airport’s very own PC Murdoch who kept us in order - decent bloke just doin‘ his job. At last a first flight - a Britannia Airways Bristol Britannia G-ANBE in 1970 from Newcastle to Munich Riem, noting a Dan-Air Ambassador at Newcastle and BUIA DC3s at Gatwick. But the Dan-Air Viscounts from Lydd to Beauvais and back in 1979 on a CSAG-organised Paris airshow trip come a close second. My wee brother is in the ATC and getting air experience flights in an Argosy out of RAF Thorney Island.

The 1980s By now I was exiled in London. LHR was within easy reach by motorbike and latterly a clapped out Austin 1100 where we would park amongst the nissen huts at BA maintenance and watch the 27R landers if Queens Buildings didn‘t appeal. PanAm TriStars, TWA B727s, GulfAir VC10s. Crivvens. When Iraqi Airways IL76s visited for ‘machine parts’, the motorbike was pressed into action to access the cargo area cul-de- sacs usually after dark! LGW could be reached on the cheap at weekends by train using wily season ticket discounts. Altair Caravelles, Ambassador B732s, British Island 1-11s, Brymon Twin Otters, the Dan Air fleet, Euroair and Ryanair (yes) Bandeirantes, Laker DC10s, Orion B733s, PeopleExpress B747s, NorthWest DC10s, Nationair and World DC8s, Wardair A310s - all history. My friends and CSAG stalwarts Iain Gibson, Alistair Ness and Brian Elliott are by now also in London. SCAN still comes through the post to remind me about what I’m not seeing north of the border. But trips abroad are widening the net. Just edging it, my best ‘80s flight is probably the Air Malta B720 9H-AAL from Luqa to Heathrow in ‘84. A trip down under in ‘88 is spoilt only by an Air New Zealand leg on leased Britannia B732 G-BHWF for Pete’s sake; from Christchurch to Auckland. It could only happen to me! Also in ‘88, I made a curious trip in NO 474 Scottish Air News Foster Yeoman’s Islander G-AYYW from Oban to Glensanda Quarry then after a ferry back across Loch Linnhe in Navajo G-WSSC from Oban to Stansted. Then there was a hurl in American’s MD80 N418AA from Denver to DFW to give life to the country number ‘Did you ever see Dallas from a DC9 at night’ by Joe Ely.

The 1990s I’m settled back up north again and Ryanair are beginning to flood the market if at first with 1-11s. Easyjet are pitching in ; good for the logs and Go are building a network out of Edinburgh alongside British Midland and Air UK. Summer charters and cargo are beginning to pick up - DHL bring in loads of their Belgian registered B727s and sub-leased American registered machines. Edinburgh was also Electra central; even Zantop machines would show up. For a timetable collector (just the British stuff) you had to grab what you could get before everything went on-line, so early Loganair, Air Ecosse, , Easyjet and Go examples remain in a box in the loft somewhere - maybe the subject of a separate Tailfin article some time; who knows. The ‘60s BEA and BOAC ones make interesting reading. Top 90s flight must have been the US Air DC9 N967VJ from Philadelphia to Norfolk. Or maybe the American Trans Air TriStar N196AT from JFK to Edinburgh in just 5½ hours. The Aer Lingus B747 EI-BED from Edinburgh to Dublin and back on rugby empties was a bit of a wangle. The most humorous flight goes to the British Midland Fk100 G-BVJA from Edinburgh to Heathrow. Nothing remarkable in itself except it parks up on a remote stand at T2. We disembark. We go up the escalator to find ourselves at immigration. Yes, immigration. What? Of course none of us is armed with passports and eventually border control is persuaded we just came down from Scotland - perhaps by the fella waving his Daily Record in the air as proof. First time I ever saw a tabloid used as a visa!

The The noughties was the decade of the discount deals - I once did Lubeck-Prestwick for £19 with a free train trip back to Edinburgh thrown in. Best flights? Fleets were by now a bit dull but the Buzz Bae146 G-BTTP from Stansted to Linate stands out. Of course Buzz didn’t last long and it was a sign of things to come. Over-expansion. Click A320 EC-ICT from Edinburgh to Barcelona in 2007 was a good sign of more to come but it was just another victim of the recession before merging with Vueling. But at least they are back. I hitched other flights on B737s by Futura, Globespan, HapagLloyd Express, European Air Charter and Sabena before they all went to the wall.

The 2010s Although my Emirates B777 out of Glasgow to Dubai in 2010 diverted to Sharjah (some boneyard stuff duly logged from on board) it’s difficult to pinpoint a stand-out flight yet…so I won’t! By 2015 we’re half way through the decade and without a doubt FR24 and on-line SBS has made all the difference. With so many helpful websites those days, you can’t miss much…only the famous east coast haar blocks my view from Leith of Edinburgh’s 24 approach but I can’t control that! SCAN is still dropping through the letter box, I’m still submitting the odd digital photo - and there’s everything to look forward to; in the short term ’s leased in Dash 8s, more Easyjet A320s, and in the longer term, new types to shake things up a bit at last like A350s, A400Ms, CS300s, Sukhoi RRJs and Mitsubishi MRJs. Yet fifty years on it’s great to see the occasional fiscal year ‘63 USAF C135 trailing over the top.
