  • Het Grote LUCHTVAARTKENNIS Register
    Het grote LUCHTVAARTKENNIS register Het register van het Luchtvaart Historisch Tijdschrift ‘LUCHTVAARTKENNIS’ en de daaraan voorafgaande ‘Mededelingen’ van de Afdeling Luchtvaartkennis van de KNVvL geeft een overzicht van hetgeen in de afgelopen jaren is gepubliceerd, m.u.v. de eerste jaargang, die helaas niet meer te traceren blijkt. Uiteraard is v.w.b. De eerste jaargangen selectief opgetreden, aangezien daarin veel summiere feiten (vliegtuiggegevens etc.) staan, die zo niet achterhaald, dan toch eenvoudiger elders te vinden zijn. Ook de diverse publicaties van het vooroorlogse Nederlandse burgerlucht- vaartregister zijn weggelaten, omdat deze na het verschijnen van het boek ‘75 jaar Nederlandse burgerluchtvaartregisters’ als overbodig kunnen worden beschouwd. Aangezien eerst in 1987 een volledige paginanummering voor het gehele jaar werd ingevoerd, wordt tot dat jaar de vindplaats aangeduid met jaartal en nummer van de betreffende aflevering van de ‘Mededelingen’. Vanaf 1987 geschied zulks per pagina. De in de Luchtvaartencyclopedie verschenen onderwerpen worden aangeduid conform de aflevering waarin deze verschenen. In een enkel geval uit 1985/86 bleek dit niet te achterhalen. Wanneer in een artikel de gehele productie van een bepaalde fabriek wordt weergegeven, wordt volstaan met de vermelding van de fabriek en worden niet de afzonderlijke types vermeld.

  • The Dream of Flying
    Pressemitteilung Flugwerft Schleißheim The Dream of Flying More than 125 years of aviation history – at a historic site From the Lilienthal glider to the Europa rocket, more than 70 aircraft are on display at Flugwerft Schleißheim on 8,000 square meters – on the edge of an airfield that is more than 100 years old. The Flugwerft was opened in 1992 as the first branch of the Deutsches Museum and has since become one of the largest and most important aviation museums in Germany. A good 100,000 visitors come to Oberschleißheim every year. The museum is located on the edge of the oldest operating airfield in Germany. In the historic hangar, where aircraft were once repaired and maintained, visitors today get a brief introduction to aviation. There are also aircraft on display that have a direct connection to the history of the Flugwerft - such as military aircraft from the time of the First World War. But the Musculair 2 muscle-powered aircraft also belongs here: it was used to set a world speed record at Schleißheim airfield in 1985. Larger aircraft are waiting in the new exhibition hall: a Heinkel He 111 and Douglas DC-3, for example, a three-engine Dornier Do 24 flying boat or the ATTAS research aircraft. In addition, there are military aircraft from the post-war period: a Starfighter can be seen here as well as a Soviet Mig or the first prototype of the Eurofighter. Equally impressive are the exhibits that Pressemitteilung actually represent a technological dead end: the German high-flyers such as the Dornier Do 31, which swallowed up enormous development costs but never reached production maturity.

In 1962, LAC Ian Baillie, who was a RAAF airframe fitter at Point Cook RAAF Base near Melbourne, purchased the aircraft and all its components were moved to Point Cook where a slow but enthusiastic rebuild commenced in huts and hangars on the base.
