  • Nieuport 28 (Full Scale)
    AIRDROME AEROPLANES Light Sport Compliant Nieuport 28 (Full Scale) Perhaps the most stylish aircraft of WWI, the Nieuport 28 offers a refined and aerodynamic aircraft from the WWI era. A total of 297 Nieuport 28s were purchased during the war, and they were used to equip the very first American fighter squadrons, starting in March 1918. All together, four AEF "pursuit" squadrons flew this fighting machine, the 27th, 94th, 95th and 103rd Aero Squadrons. This full scale replica offers the same appearance and character as the original version flown by WWI aces such as , Quentin Roosevelt, the son of US president Theodore Roosevelt, as well as American aces like the 26-victory ace, Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, who began his flying career in the Nieuport 28. This Airdrome Aeroplanes replica has adopted modern construction techniques, todays engine technology and flight performancequalities that make this modern version a joy to fly!

  • The Gps Luncheon Meeting Thursday, 11 October 2018
    The Grampaw Pettibone Squadron is a non-profit organization (IRS Sect. 501(C)(4) which, through meetings, discussions, speaker programs, and periodic field trips, serves to educate squadron members and the general public on the requirements of an adequate national defense, especially maritime aviation, which is essential to a free society, and to support the military professionals (active and reserve) responsible for many aspects of national defense. GPS also seeks to foster the strong pride, esprit, and fraternal bonds which exist among those associated with Naval Aviation. THE GPS LUNCHEON MEETING WILL BE HELD ON THURSDAY, 11 OCTOBER 2018 AT THE GARDEN GROVE ELKS LODGE LOCATED AT 11551 TRASK Ave., GARDEN GROVE Hangar doors open at 1130, Luncheon is at 1200, secure at 1330. Please make reservations before 9 PM on Monday 8 October. COST IS $18.00. FOR RESERVATIONS Please E-mail RayLeCompte34@Gmail/com or by Phone: 562-287-4846 About our speaker’s topic: LIBERATORS OVER GERMANY About our speaker: ROBERT RUIZ Like tens of thousands of other young Americans in World War II, Bob Ruiz answered his nation’s call by enlisting in the US Army Air Force. On completion of flight training, he was assigned to the 389th Bomb Group as a pilot flying his Consolidated B-24 Liberator in many extremely hazardous missions over the German heartland. Of his 35 missions, perhaps the most harrowing was a massed bomber attack over Berlin. While successfully completing his bomb run, his aircraft was struck multiple times by enemy anti-aircraft fire. He nursed his crippled airplane all the way back to England with only two of his four engines still functioning.

  • Master Narrative Ours Is the Epic Story of the Royal Navy, Its Impact on Britain and the World from Its Origins in 625 A.D
    NMRN Master Narrative Ours is the epic story of the Royal Navy, its impact on Britain and the world from its origins in 625 A.D. to the present day. We will tell this emotionally-coloured and nuanced story, one of triumph and achievement as well as failure and muddle, through four key themes:- People. We tell the story of the Royal Navy’s people. We examine the qualities that distinguish people serving at sea: courage, loyalty and sacrifice but also incidents of ignorance, cruelty and cowardice. We trace the changes from the amateur ‘soldiers at sea’, through the professionalization of officers and then ships’ companies, onto the ‘citizen sailors’ who fought the World Wars and finally to today’s small, elite force of men and women. We highlight the change as people are rewarded in war with personal profit and prize money but then dispensed with in peace, to the different kind of recognition given to salaried public servants. Increasingly the people’s story becomes one of highly trained specialists, often serving in branches with strong corporate identities: the Royal Marines, the Submarine Service and the Fleet Air Arm. We will examine these identities and the Royal Navy’s unique camaraderie, characterised by simultaneous loyalties to ship, trade, branch, service and comrades. Purpose. We tell the story of the Royal Navy’s roles in the past, and explain its purpose today. Using examples of what the service did and continues to do, we show how for centuries it was the pre-eminent agent of first the British Crown and then of state policy throughout the world.

  • 1914/1918 : Nos Anciens Et Le Développement De L' Aviation
    1914/1918 : Nos Anciens et le Développement de l’aviation militaire René Couillandre, Jean-Louis Eytier, Philippe Jung 06 novembre 2018 - 18h00 Talence 1914/1918 : Nos Anciens et le développement de l’ aviation militaire Chers Alumnis, chers Amis, Merci d’être venus nombreux participer au devoir de mémoire que toute Amicale doit à ses diplômés. Comme toute la société française en 1914, les GADZARTS, à l’histoire déjà prestigieuse, et SUPAERO, née en 1909, ont été frappés par le 1er conflit mondial. Les jeunes diplômés, comme bien d’autres ont été mobilisés pour répondre aux exigences nationales. Le conflit que tous croyaient de courte durée s’est révélé dévoreur d’hommes : toute intelligence, toute énergie, toute compétence fut mise au service de la guerre. L’aviation naissante, forte de ses avancées spectaculaires s’est d’abord révélé un service utile aux armes. Elle a rapidement évolué au point de devenir indispensable sur le champ de bataille et bien au-delà, puis de s’imposer comme une composante essentielle du conflit. Aujourd’hui, au centenaire de ce meurtrier conflit, nous souhaitons rendre hommage à nos Anciens qui, avec tant d’autres, de façon anonyme ou avec éclat ont permis l’évolution exceptionnelle de l’aviation militaire. Rendre hommage à chacun est impossible ; les célébrer collectivement, reconnaître leurs sacrifices et leurs mérites c’est nourrir les racines de notre aéronautique moderne. Nous vous proposons pour cela, après un rappel sur l’ aviation en 1913, d’effectuer un premier parcours sur le destin tragique de quelques camarades morts au champ d’honneur ou en service aérien en les resituant dans leur environnement aéronautique ; puis lors d’un second parcours, de considérer la présence et l’apport d’autres diplômés à l’évolution scientifique, technique, industrielle ou opérationnelle de l’ aviation au cours de ces 4 années.

  • Nous Avons Aussi Découvert Le Bushby Mustang II, Ressem- Blant Assez Au Mustang P-51D Mais Biplace Côte À Côte, Plus Petit Et Moins Puissant
    Nous avons aussi découvert le Bushby Mustang II, ressem- blant assez au Mustang P-51D mais biplace côte à côte, plus petit et moins puissant. Et surtout : le texte trouvé affirmait qu’il s’agissait d’un ‘’dérivé du Midget Mustang dessiné pour produire un petit avion civil ressemblant au célèbre P-51 Mustang’’… Nous avons regretté de ne pas avoir exploré plus attentivement tout ce qui porta le nom de Mustang dans l’histoire de l’aviation. Nous pensions que ce n’était pas notre sujet, consacré aux lignes de l’avion apprécié – son nom important peu. Cherchant un profil du Midget Mustang (mini-Mustang, ou Mustang nain), nous avons eu la surprise de constater que cet avion ne ressemblait absolument pas à un Mustang – mis à part peut-être la dérive angulaire, dé- tail. Ce Midget Mustang ne reprenait du Mustang que le nom, mais certains acheteurs des plans montè- rent leur avion en lui donnant vraiment un air de Mustang, et cela entre dans notre sujet. Quand fut dessinée la version bi- place Mustang II, le principe de verrière bulle comme sur le P-51D fut repris, ap- paremment, pour mieux mériter ce nom, sans décevoir cer- tains clients. 107 Autre bonne surprise : Jean-Christophe Carbonel a finalement trouvé le temps de nous dessiner une caricature de P-51D pour compléter son Moeufrane. Ce fut assez différent de ce que nous avions imaginé, et en fait il s’avère illusoire de parvenir à copier le trait de génie des artistes, qui se renouvellent à chaque dessin, toujours créatif.
