  • Vickers Valetta
    Vickers Valetta The Vickers Valetta is a British twin-engine military transport Valetta aircraft of the late 1940s. It was an all-metal mid-wing monoplane with a tailwheel undercarriage. Contents Design and development Operational history Variants Operators Role Military transport aircraft Accidents and incidents Aircraft on display Manufacturer Vickers-Armstrongs Ltd Specifications (Vickers Valetta C.1) First flight 30 June 1947 Notable appearances in media Number built 262 See also Developed from Vickers VC.1 Viking References Variants Vickers Varsity Notes Bibliography External links Design and development The Valetta was a military transport development of the Viking civil airliner. The 58th Viking (c/n 158) became the prototype Valetta, which was first flown from Brooklands[1] by test pilot Mutt Summers on 30 June 1947.[2] The Valetta differed from the Viking fundamentally in being fitted with more powerful engines, a strengthened floor and large loading doors.[3] Although named after the Maltese capital Valletta, the aircraft name is spelt with only one "l". The Viking and Valetta provided the basis of the Varsity. The Varsity, although similar, was slightly larger and had a tricycle landing gear and under-fuselage pannier. Operational history The Valetta C.1 entered service with the RAF in 1948, replacing the Douglas Dakota with RAF Transport Command and with transport squadrons in the Middle and Far East.[2] The Valetta was used to carry out parachute drops in the 1956 Suez Crisis,[4] and was used to provide transport support for a number of other British Military operations in the 1950s and 1960s, such as during the Malayan Emergency [5] and operations in Aden.[6] The Valetta C.2 was a VIP passenger transport and extra range.[7] The Valetta T.3 was built to provide a navigational trainer for service with the RAF College at RAF Cranwell and with No.1 and No.2 Air Navigation Schools.

  • Theromseymodellermay2009-HQ
    MAY 2009 THIS MONTH Welcome to the third edition of The Romsey Modeller. This month putting this magazine together has been a real struggle, not due to lack of content but too much, the first draft ran to 52 pages! Consequently I had to serialise many of the articles, which I will run over the next few months. As ever thanks for the fantastic support I have received from all those who have written pieces for this publication. Lack of space in this edition prevents me from publishing a full analysis of the club survey results but does provide an opportunity for anybody who hasn’t returned their survey form to do, so before I close the exercise. One item that was mentioned on almost all returns was the desire for the club to organise day trips to museums, air shows etc, with the most requested destination being the Bovington Tank Museum. I will raise this at our next meeting, I sure that it would not be too difficult to organise. While I think about our next meeting, a reminder that we will be holding a photo session, so bring some kits along. This is intended to provide some good quality images for the gallery on the website. The website is continuing to attract more visitors with traffic up 30% in the last month that equated to over 1000 unique visitors to the site from 64 countries. Back to this edition of the magazine, we have part 1 of an exclusive account written by Nigel Denchfield of his father’s wartime experiences flying Spitfires.

WELLESLEY VISIT 1938 THOMASTOWN, VIC. 3074. 80 comment With this issue we complete the publication of Volume 19 of the Journal. Now you are being asked to pay your subscriptions for Volume 20, and no doubt many members are irate about the extreme lateness of the publication schedule, and considering whether they should renew or not. You therefore deserve an explanation on the current status of the Journal. I won’t paint an optimistic picture because that is not fact, but the true situation is not as bad as many of the rumours circulating. SUBSCRIPTIONS SECRETARY Why is the Journal late? The reasons are threefold. In the first instance production fell behind the MIKE MADDEN planned schedule. The reasons for this were manyfold, not the most insignificant, being the lack of a steady flow of articles. However, the production of the Journal is the Editor’s responsibility and when it falls behind he must accept the blame. The second reason was an acute lack of funds even when we had something to print. A past administration had committed the Society to quite a large debt and the Com­ mittee decided that it would be in the Society’s best interests to get rid of this debt as soon as possible: un- EDITOR fortunately this left us with something of a cash shortage, and when Journals were available for publica­ PETER MALONE tion there was a further delay as they had to wait for funds.
