  • Handley Page, Lachmann, Flow Control and Future Civil Aircraft
    Handley Page, Lachmann, flow control and future civil aircraft John Green ABSTRACT Frederick Handley Page and Gustav Lachmann independently developed and patented the concept of the slotted wing as a means of increasing maximum lift. Subsequently they co-operated on the project and Lachmann joined Handley Page Ltd. The Handley Page slotted wing became used worldwide, generating substantial income for the company from use of the patent, and its descendents can be found on all modern transport aircraft. In the years following World War II, Lachmann led research at Handley Page to reduce drag by keeping the boundary layer laminar by surface suction. Handley Page led this field in the UK and developed a number of aircraft concepts, none of which came to fruition as full scale projects. However, looking to the future, the basic concept of laminar flow control holds out arguably the greatest potential of all technologies for reducing the fuel burn and environmental impact of future civil aircraft. 1. INTRODUCTION This is the story of two men of genius, Frederick Handley Page and Gustav Lachmann, Figs. 1 and 2. They were brought together by chance, as a result of having independently, and unknown to each other, invented and patented the same aerodynamic concept. During World War I they had been on opposite sides. Handley Page, who had been 28 at the outbreak of hostilities, established his company’s reputation as the designer of the large biplane bombers, the ‘bloody paralysers’ sought by the Royal Navy in 1914, that made a great contribution to the war effort in 1917 and 1918.

    57 / 630 Squadrons’ Association President Group Captain: David Houghton Vice President: Group Captain Tony Gunby Secretary: Gordon Lodge Newsletter 2016 Centenary Picture presented to 57(R) Squadron Page 1 In Memoriam The one aspect of the Newsletter I do not look forward to compiling as it means we have lost friends and supporters of the Association. This year I must report the loss of; Frank Kristensen Henry Ricketts Alan Turner Frank from Denmark attended a couple of Reunions with the Danish Party who look after 630 Squadron Graves in Denmark. On a number of occasions they have hosted visits from the Association on their Remembrance Day. Henry, who hailed from Perth in Australia had over the years been to a number of Reunions. Alan I had contact with by phone and letter over the years. Gordon Lodge President’s Piece I am told by our hyper-efficient Association Secretary Gordon Lodge, that it is now 2017 and therefore time for me to put pen to paper/finger to keyboard and compose a few words for our latest Association Newsletter. Where does the time go? Frankly, nothing I say can match the wonderful news from OC 57 Squadron elsewhere in this Newsletter that the continued existence of 57 Squadron as an active flying squadron has been secured for the foreseeable future. That fantastic news means that, so soon after we celebrated the 100th Anniversary of 57 Squadron in such fine style, we can look forward to more anniversary celebrations in the future and to the enduring memory of the legacy and spirit of 630 Squadro2n remaining equally vibrant.
