The mission suc- ceeded as the bombers got through to their targets and Lt. Charles Hall became the first Tuskegee Airman to shoot down a German plane. But the day was spoiled when the 99th also learned they had lost two of its fighter pilots. A postwar account of the event record- ed that the two pilots, Lieutenants White and McCullin, had crashed on takeoff. This report went unchallenged for more than sixty years. In the lead article historians Joseph Caver, Jerome Ennels, and Wesley Newton have dug into the historical record to set the story straight. In the second article, Air National Guard historians Alan Meyer and David Anderson seek precedents for the “9/11” 2001 terrorist attack against the United States. They focus on four case studies in the U.S. war on drugs involving non-state actors. Meyer and Anderson conclude that the past can indeed inform the future—provided we find the right places to look. It is well known that when the “Japanese Octopus” conquered the Far East in World War II, French Indo-China emerged as an important target of Allied air power. Less well known is the role of the colonial governor-general there. Appointed by France’s Vichy gov- ernment, Vice Admiral Jean Decoux became a willing collaborator. Professor Martin Mickelsen holds Decoux responsible for the torture and death of many Allied airmen he turned over to the Japanese. The fourth article, written by Roger Miller, an expert on the Berlin airlift and a fre- quent contributor to Air Power History, traces the origin and rationale of the name “Operation Vittles.” A superb and tenacious researcher, Miller demonstrates the value sometime inherent in answering a seemingly trivial question. Don’t miss the “Readers’ Note—Section 4 Officers” [page 71] by Generals Martin and Miller. Note that a great percentage of the advanced flight officers in the Class of 41B attained general officer rank. Lt. Gen. Michael A. Nelson, President of the Air Force Historical Foundation, provides the latest news concerning the Foundation and announces the Annual Awards Banquet scheduled for October 6, 2008.

ANTON MENGER'S remarkable study of the cardinal Dr doctrine of revolutionary socialism, now for the first W time published in English, has long enjoyed a wide reputation on the Continent; and English students of social philosophy, whether or not they are familiar with the original, will welcome its appearance in this trans- lation. The interest and importance of the subject will not be disputed, either by the opponents or the advocates of socialism ; and those who know how exceptionally Dr. Menger is qualified for work of this kind, by his juristic eminence, and his profound know- ledge of socialistic literature, will not need to be told that it has been executed with singular vigour and ability. Hitherto, perhaps because it was not generally accessible to English readers, the book has not received in this country the notice that it has met with elsewhere. Yet there are reasons why it should be of peculiar interest to English economists. The particular method of criticism adopted by Dr.

  • Thomas Hodgskin and Economic Progress; a Radical Reconstruction of His Endogenous Growth Theory
    THOMAS HODGSKIN AND ECONOMIC PROGRESS; A RADICAL RECONSTRUCTION OF HIS ENDOGENOUS GROWTH THEORY F.G. Day PhD 2009 THOMAS HODGSKIN AND ECONOMIC PROGRESS; A RADICAL RECONSTRUCTION OF HIS ENDOGENOUS GROWTH THEORY Frederick George Day A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Economics The Manchester Metropolitan University June 2009 1 Declaration I confirm that no part of this thesis has been submitted for the award of a qualification at this or any other university. 2 Abstract By means of a close reading of early 19th century economic works, and by reconstructing aspects of Thomas Hodgskin‘s political economy, this thesis presents an exposition of those parts of his work that contributed to his position on growth. Rather than concentrating on his ideas on capital, we have centred on his concept of political economy as a science concerned with labour as the sole creator of wealth. We present his political economy as having labour as its focal point within a hypothetical pure market economy. From here he sought a foundation to economic growth derived from human action rather than capital or other material circumstances. Hodgskin saw human knowledge and the use of technology as the starting point that would, from his perspective, lead inevitably to those economic conditions that produce improvements in economic welfare and by doing so allow for an increase in population. In order to demonstrate his ideas on growth, we reconstruct his concepts of what was natural and artificial to equate to the modern notions of endogenous and exogenous.

    Charles M. Schulz – Sonoma County Airport (STS) The Red Baron Flyer Fall 2019 Newsletter – Issue 56 Airport Solar System Awarded! A Power Purchase Agreement has been approved by the Board of Supervisors for a solar system at the Airport. The approved 834kW parking canopy solar structure will be installed over Long Term Parking Lot B, and will meet 100% of the Airport’s electrical needs. Parking canopies provide protection from weather elements, and produce clean and renewable electricity. The project will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 1,023 metric tons, the equivalent to 2,500,956 miles driven by an average vehicle, and save the County $3,627,981 over 20 years. The solar project has been awarded to Forefront Power. They are currently conducting the FAA glare analysis, and the project is expected to be operational by late summer 2020.

    US NAVY AIRCRAFT Douglas A-4B Skyhawk In the early 1950s, the Navy sought a jet-powered replacement for the large, piston-engined AD-1 Skyraider. Noted aircraft designer Edward Henry “Ed” Heinemann led his team in creating the Skyhawk, an aircraft weighing half as much as the Skyraider. The A- 4 Skyhawk features a modified delta wing with a span of only twenty-seven and one half feet that did not require folding for carrier hangar storage or transport to the flight deck. The A-4 met all Navy performance requirements and set a world speed record of 695 mph (1119 kph) in 1954, earning the craft the nickname “Heinemann’s Hot Rod.” The A-4 was flown by Senator John McCain off the USS Forrestal during the Vietnam War. He had previously flown Skyraiders off the Intrepid. The A-4B Skyhawk displayed on the hangar deck is painted to resemble one that flew off the Intrepid during her first Vietnam tour. The in flight photograph of this aircraft was provided by Gerald Sagehorn, a pilot who flew this aircraft off Intrepid. The A-4B Skyhawk on loan from the National Museum of Naval Aviation in Pensacola, Florida. Grumman/Eastern Aircraft TBM-3E Avenger 3E Avenger First flown in 1941 and introduced operationally in June 1942, the Avenger became the U.S. Navy’s standard torpedo bomber throughout World War II, with more than 9,836 constructed. Designed and built by Grumman Aircraft Engineering Coporation, they were affectionately nicknamed “turkeys” for their somewhat ungainly appearance. Avengers flew off the Intrepid throughout her World War II career.
