Two Jet Provosts (the other being XW322/1) were held at readiness for use by the Prince during his four-month course; he flew just over 92 hours in Jet Provosts, 23 ½ of them solo on the first Cranwell Graduate Entry course , from 8 March to 20 August 1971. Both had the Royal (Prince of Wales) Cypher on the engine intakes. They were locked under guard in a hangar each night with their own dedicated ground crew. All flights were over a specific airspace over Lincolnshire and monitored by a radar controller based at Northern Radar at RAF Lindholme.

This paper traces some of the major milestones in the progression of airplane speeds from subsonic to supersonic. While some historical background is included on work done prior to the twentieth century, the major emphasis is on the twentieth century developments after the man-carrying airplane became a practical reality. The techniques of increasing airplane speed revolve around means of increasing the propulsive force and means of reducing the airframe resistance (drag). With the changes in speed, the attendant changes in flow patterns due to the compressibilty of air introduce some aerodynamic problems. In addition, geometric changes introduced to combat the effects of compressibility also promote aerodynamic problems. Someof the solutions to these problems are illustrated, and many inno- vative design features that have evolved are discussed. INTRODUCTION For thousands of years, mankind has been upgrading the methods and means of transportation by land, water, and, finally, air. There has always been a human urge both to move more and to move faster. The progression has included walking; the use of animals; the discovery of the wheel, which, in turn, lead to handcarts, and when combined with animal power, to chariots, wagons, and carriages.

  • Britain and the Challenge of Air Defence Dr David Jordan
    FREEMAN AIR & SPACE INSTITUTE Invented and Predicted Futures: Britain and the Challenge of Air Defence Dr David Jordan Paper 4 About the Freeman Air and Space Institute The Freeman Air and Space Institute is an inter‑disciplinary initiative of the School of Security Studies, King’s College London. The Freeman Institute is dedicated to generating original knowledge and understanding of air and space issues. The Freeman Institute seeks to inform scholarly, policy and doctrinal debates in a rapidly evolving strategic environment characterised by transformative technological change which is increasing the complexity of the air and space domains. The Freeman Institute places a priority on identifying, developing and cultivating air and space thinkers in academic and practical contexts, as well as informing, equipping and stimulating relevant air and space education provision at King’s and beyond. The Institute is named after Air Chief Marshal Sir Wilfrid Freeman (1888–1953), who was crucially influential in British air capability development in the late 1930s and during the Second World War, making an important contribution to the Allied victory. He played a central role in the development of successful aircraft including the Spitfire, Lancaster and Mosquito, and in planning the wartime aircraft economy – the largest state‑sponsored industrial venture in British history.
