One of the main changes from Sikorsky’s H-34 was the replacement of the piston-engine powerplant with a turboshaft engine; the Wessex was the first helicopter in the world to be produced in large num- bers that made use of a gas turbine propulsion system.[1] Early models were powered by a single Napier Gazelle engine, later builds used a pair of Rolls-Royce Gnome engines. The Wessex was initially produced for the Royal Navy (RN) and later for the Royal Air Force (RAF); a limited number of civilian aircraft were also produced, as well as some export sales. The Wessex operated as an anti- submarine warfare and utility helicopter; it is perhaps best recognised for its use as a search and rescue (SAR) he- licopter.

  • Target Acquisition Designation Sight, Pilot Night Vision System
    UH-1 Iroquois UH-1 Iroquois The Bell UH-1 Iroquois, commonly (or officially in the USMC) known as the "Huey", was a multipurpose military helicopter, famous for its use in the Vietnam war. Overview The Huey was developed from 1955 US Army trials with the Bell Model 204. The initial designation of HU-1 (helicopter utility) led to its nickname. It was first used by the military in 1959 and went into triservice production in 1962 as the UH-1. The last were produced in 1976 with more than 10,000 made in total, of which the majority (7,000 or so) were deployed in Vietnam. In Vietnam, 2,202 Huey pilots were killed and approximately 2,500 aircraft were lost, roughly half to combat and the rest to operational accidents. In Vietnam primary missions included general support, air assault, cargo transport, aeromedical evacuation, search and rescue, and electronic warfare. During the conflict, the craft was upgraded, notably to a larger version based on the Model 205. This version was initially designated the UH-1D and flew operationally from 1967. The Huey was phased out with the introduction of the UH-60 Black Hawk, although the Army UH-1 Residual Fleet has around 700 UH-1s that were supposed to be retained until 2015. Army support for the craft was intended to end in 2004. Modern twin-engine versions of the aircraft continue in service for the USMC. USAF Lieutenant James P. Fleming piloted a UH-1F on a 26 November 1968 mission that won him the Medal of Honor Vietnam era usage In Vietnam, the Huey was used for various purposes and had different designations for each task.

  • Westland - a Yeovil Centenary 2015 Marks the Centenary of Aircraft Construction in Yeovil
    Westland - A Yeovil Centenary 2015 marks the centenary of aircraft construction in Yeovil. The company has its origin with Petters Ltd: Petters were initially famous for their domestic ironware made at the Nautilus Works, and were later well known for their diesel engines. Petters’ aviation department was formed in 1915 by the Petter twins - Percy and Ernest. At the time aircraft construction in Britain was expanding rapidly to meet the needs of the First World War. The aircraft department was styled Westland Aircraft Works (Branch of Petters Ltd), with telegraphic address ‘Aircraft’, Yeovil. The company built a variety of types during the First World War including the following: One of the first 12 aircraft to be built by Westland, a Short 184 Short 184 seaplane: twelve aircraft, first aircraft delivered January 1916 Short Admiralty Type 166 seaplane: twenty, first aircraft delivered July 1916 Sopwith 1½ Strutter: seventy-five, delivery from late 1916 AIRCO DH4: at least 125 (some sources 140 or 150) AIRCO DH9 AIRCO DH9A Vickers Vimy: twenty-five aircraft Westland N1b Scout Westland Wagtail Westland Weasel Early Westland built aircraft, including the Short 184, Short 166 and 1½ Strutter, were delivered by rail, prior to the establishment of an airfield next to the works, the airfield coming into use in April 1917. Westland was responsible for the DH9A, which was transformed from the AIRCO DH9 by the use of the American Liberty engine. AIRCO would normally have carried out this development, but were too busy with contracts for the DH10. At least 350 DH9A were built by Westland.

    THE FASTEST HELICOPTER (A MODIFIED WESTLAND LYNX) AgustaWestland Lynx Lynx HAS3 of the Black Cats (Royal Navy) display team Manufacturer Westland/AgustaWestland The Westland Lynx is a helicopter designed by Westland and built at Westland's factory in Yeovil, first flying on 21 March 1971 as the Westland WG.13. Originally intended as a utility craft for both civil and naval usage, military interest led to the development of the Army and Navy Lynx, which went into operational usage in 1977 and was later adopted by the armed forces of over a dozen nations. The helicopter is now produced and marketed by AgustaWestland. Several aircraft were built under licence by French company Aerospatiale for French usage. When piloted by Roy Moxam in 1972, it broke the world record over 15 and 25 km by flying at 321.74 km/h. It also set a new 100 km closed circuit record shortly afterwards, flying at 318.504 km/h. In 1986, a specially modified Westland Lynx piloted by John Egginton set an absolute speed record for helicopters over a 15 and 25 km course by reaching 400.87 km/h (249.09 mp/h). The Lynx is one of the most agile helicopters in the world, capable of performing backflips, among other things. The British Army ordered 100 Lynx AH (Attack Helicopter) Mk.1 for various roles, including tactical transport, armed escort, anti-tank warfare (with eight TOW missiles), reconnaissance and evacuation. The Army has fitted a Marconi Elliot AFCS system onto the Lynx for automatic stabilisation on three axis. 1 Service history In British service it equips the Army Air Corps (AAC) and the Fleet Air Arm (FAA).

[Story on page 6—images by Michael Balter/MBAviation Images] EDITORIAL Only a year ago Britain was riding on the crest of an exchange rate bonanza with the aver- age Brit able to visit the USA and Europe safe in the knowledge that the UK Pound Sterling was ‘strong.’ But now that bubble has burst and the sham of it all has been highlighted. Tough times in UK air support are around. Running costs are climbing in the commodity that every nation holds up as the primary cost for air support – DOC’s. Fortunately fuel costs have now receded and that takes some of the sting out of the pain to come but the main concerns for UK operators is that engine and airframe maintenance con- tracts [PBH etc] are priced not in Sterling but in either US Dollars or Euros.

Free to travel anywhere in the United King- dom we please – which of course is not totally free! We are still faced with a world in turmoil and even those areas where we may choose to travel, including parts of Europe and the USA – do not really want us! Thanks to Covid 19, we remain unclean, and if we are not unclean the rest of the world is! True free- dom may have to be delayed a little while longer and those soothsayers who said it will be 2022 before we may get something near freedom may yet be found to be the wisest persons of our times. Meanwhile there is the Internet and this month sees PAvCon Europe joining nations across the world of airborne law enforcement together in dialogue. Bookings made by the end of April showed that it was in- deed to be an International event drawing delegates from across the globe. It will never match, let alone beat, face-to face networking but it keeps a door open for cooperation be- tween nations after over a year of little or nothing.
