  • Sopwith and Hawker at the Ham Factory, North Kingston
    SOPWITH AND HAWKER AT THE HAM FACTORY, NORTH KINGSTON The National Aircraft Factory No.2 was built through the winter of 1917 by the Ministry of Munitions and leased by Sopwith Aviation to more than double their production capacity The factory which stood near Ham Common on the road between Kingston and Richmond was built in 26 weeks. It was one of four huge factories in a scheme where contractors would make aircraft under licence but Sopwith leased this one to build their own products. From April 1918 hundreds of Sopwith fighter aircraft were being built at Ham Sopwith Snipes, Dolphins and Salamanders were built in large numbers but, when the war ended a year earlier than predicted, many orders were cancelled leaving huge stocks of unwanted components. Sopwith’s offer to buy the factory was refused by the Government and it was sold for £227,000 to Leyland Motors In 1948 Leyland Motors sold the Ham factory to Hawker Aircraft Ltd who needed a large factory in which to build their new jet aircraft designs By the late 1940s the Canbury Park Road Kingston Factory was unsuitable for modern aircraft design and construction and Hawker Aircraft’s Langley satellite factory was too close to the new Heathrow airport. The Company considered moving completely to a large factory in Blackpool before approaching Leyland Motors to buy the Ham Factory occupied by Sopwith Aviation 30 years earlier. The price was agreed at £585,000. Through the 1950s Hawker Hunters were in “Super Priority” production at Ham for the Royal Air Force and other NATO forces With the Cold War at its height the Government and NATO gave “Super Priority” status to Hunter production at the Ham factory and also at Hawker’s satellite factory at Blackpool and Armstrong Whitworth’s at Bagginton, Coventry.

The aircraft, a Meteor (G-LOSM), Vampire (G-HELV), Hawker Hunter T7 (G-VETA) and a single seat Hawker Hunter F4 (G-HHUN) had planned to transit in formation. However before departure G-HHUN had experienced a problem with an exhaust gas temperature (EGT) gauge and so the other three aircraft departed initially and G-HHUN followed some 20 minutes later, taking off at 1141 hrs. After landing, G-HHUN was refueled with 730 litres of AVTUR for its forthcoming practice display at Biggin Hill. The pilots of the Vampire and Meteor left their aircraft at Dunsfold and returned to Bournemouth as passengers in a light aircraft.

  • A Harrier GR.9, ZD 406, Royal Navy Naval Strike Wing, RAF Station Cottesmore, 2009
    Harrier GR.7/9 BRITISH FIGHTER 1/48 SCALE PLASTIC KIT #1166 INTRO The development of precision-attack missiles with a nuclear warhead during the 1950s changed strategic military doctrine dramatically. It became obvious that large military air bases would become easy targets that could be wiped out by a single, precise strike. This prompted French aircraft designer Michel Wibault to wonder, in 1955, if NATO might not be making a mistake by constructing some 100 new 'field' bases called Basic Operational Platforms (BOP) alongside the border of the Eastern Block. Instead, Whibault proposed the development of an aircraft with VTOL (Vertical Take-off and Landing) capability, eliminating the need for the proposed air bases. First drawings The VTOL (Vertical Take off and Landing) concept is not a new idea. Several VTOL aircraft were proposed during World War II, but it was the dawn of the jet era that brought new possibilities, first tested with Rolls-Royces´ Bedstead flying device. A real aircraft followed in the form of the Short SC.1 prototype, using four RB.108 turbojets pointing downward with a fifth pointing to the rear for forward propulsion, but it was quite obvious such a layout was ineffective. Instead, Wibault proposed a single powerful gas turbine, driving four high-capacity movable blowers via shafts. There was not too much interest at Dassault, but it attracted the attention of USAF colonel Johnny Driscoll, who was then commander of the Paris based MWDP (Mutual Weapons Development Program). He presented Wibaults´ plans to Theodore von Karman and the famous engineer and physicist was impressed.

  • Aviator's Fluid Balance During Military Flight
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Aviator’s Fluid Balance During Military Flight Anna Levkovsky; Sivan Abot-Barkan; Leah Chapnik; Omer Doron; Yuval Levy; Yuval Heled; Barak Gordon INTRODUCTION: A loss of 1% or more of bodyweight due to dehydration has a negative effect on cognitive performance, which could critically affect flight safety. There is no mention in the literature concerning the amounts of military pilots’ fluid loss during flight. The aim of this study was to quantify fluid loss of pilots during military flight. METHODS: There were 48 aviators (mean age 23.9) from the Israeli Air Force who participated in the study, which included 104 training flights in various flight platforms. Bodyweight, urine specific gravity, and environmental heat strain were measured before and after each flight. Fluid loss was calculated as the weight differences before and after the flight. We used a univariate and one-way ANOVA to analyze the effect of different variables on the fluid loss. 21 RESULTS: The mean fluid loss rate was 462 ml · h . The results varied among different aircraft platforms and depended on flight duration. Blackhawk pilots lost the highest amount of fluids per flight, albeit had longer flights (mean 108 min com- pared to 35.5 in fighter jets). Jet fighter pilots had the highest rate of fluid loss per hour of flight (up to 692 ml, extrapolated). CONCLUSION: Overall, at 11 flights ≈( 11%) aircrew completed their flight with a meaningful fluid loss. We conclude that military flights may be associated with significant amount of fluid loss among aircrew. KEYWORDS: dehydration, pilots, aircrew.
