January - June 2011 3 PRESIDENT’S MEMO The annual Symposium and Banquet approaches and I trust as many of you as possible will travel to Anaheim for what promises to be a first class event. Following the theme of the Centennial of Naval Aviation, the program will focus on many of the highlights of this special year in Naval Aviation history. You will not want to miss it. This year SETP has hosted 10 different symposia and at each venue, the rooms were full of test pilots, flight test engineers and interested folks. The keys to success included great technical presentations on relevant test activities and William A. Flynn (F) relating the lessons learned from on-going programs of all Lockheed Martin sizes and shapes. The hard work of busy testers preparing SETP President presentations and writing technical papers was appreciated by these audiences who came to listen in spite of difficult economic times. I wish to thank everyone who donated their time and effort to participating in these forums. Honest, humble, open communication relating our mistakes, failures and successes from our adventures aids our fellow testers directly as they take on-board the lessons learned to apply to their own work. It has been a very difficult year with the accidents and fatalities we have suffered. Our organization is focused on preventing accidents, communicating what we learn flying and testing aircraft. We relate lessons learned and tell each other how our aircraft and systems have evolved hoping that those who follow us will not suffer our fate. However, as diligent, focused and humble as we may be, we cannot mitigate every risk nor prevent every accident. I wish we could change that. As many will recall, SETP began an association with the Mayday Foundation in recent years. Mayday provides critical incident stress aid to families of aircraft incident or accident victims. The Foundation is based in Germany and is closely associated with the airline industry in Germany and the greater European flying community. Their network provides a very effective web of support to those who need help, including the families of our SETP organization. Mayday has links to similar support groups in the US and Canada, helped by ALPA, and we will forge relationships with the North American network to develop counseling and support for the SETP families left

  • The Ninety Nines
    THE NINETY NINES THE NINETY NINES Captain Nancy Aldrich, aviation writer If you have been reading my blogs, I'm sure you have noticed several references to The Ninety Nines. This article will explain just who they are and what they do. In 1929, the first All Women's Air Derby was held during the National Air Races. It attracted 20* brave, adventurous young women, and covered 2,759 miles. The race began at Santa Monica, California, and ended in Cleveland, Ohio. To qualify as a racer, the women had to have a minimum of 100 flight hours, at least 25 of which had to have been on cross country flights. These were the same requirements for men competing in National Air Races. In the early days of aviation there were not many women pilots, but most of the women had met at previous events. They were a tight band and looked forward to this first real race for women. It was a chance to prove their skills to the general public. They took this event very seriously and were somewhat upset when the humorous commentator, Will Rogers dubbed it, "The Powder Puff Derby." On August 18, 1929, nineteen pilots took off, one more left the next day. Fifteen of the women arrived in Cleveland, 9 days later. Almost every pilot had some kind of problem during the race. Tragically, Marvel Crosson was killed when she crashed in Gila River Valley. Her crash was attributed to carbon monoxide poisoning. When it was learned that she had been killed there was a public outcry to cancel the race.

  • The Fairey Rotodyne
    THE FAIREY ROTODYNE The Rotodyne represents an entirely new approach to air transport, and its amazing performance is a triumph for the British Au.i4.ii Industry. It is the first true vertical take-off airliner, and is capable of carrying a full load of passengers or freight, operating from airlicUU no larger than two tennis courts. Unlike the conventional helicopter the Rotodyne is economical to operate, and also capable of much hijr.lin speeds and greater range. The prototype Rotodyne, built under a Ministry of Supply contract, first flew on 6th November, 1957, and achieved its first transition to complete autorotative flight in April, 1958. This prototype, the subject of this model, is capable of carrying 48 passengers or five tun» of freight; the eventual production version will be larger, carrying up to 70 passengers or 8 tons of freight, and will be powered by the more powerful Rolls-Royce Tyne engines in place of the present Elands. A striking demonstration of the Rotodyne's performance was given in January, 1959, when it set up a record 191 m.p.h. on a 100 kin closed circuit. This exceeds the previous record by 49 m.p.h.j and is even 29 m.p.h. faster than the previous absolute speed record for heli- copters. This speed, together with the range of 450 miles, to be increased to 650 miles in the developed version, and of course the weighi lifting and vertical take-off performance, puts the Fairey Rotodyne into a class of its own. Already three airline operators have indicated their intention of buying the Rotodyne, and great interest is being shown by civilian and military operators throughout Europe and America.

  • Thrust Control of Vtol Aircraft – Part Deux Daniel C. Dugan
    THRUST CONTROL OF VTOL AIRCRAFT – PART DEUX DANIEL C. DUGAN [email protected] Aero Engineer/Research Pilot´‡ NASA Ames Research Center Moffett Field, California ABSTRACT Thrust control of Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) aircraft has always been a debatable issue. In most cases, it comes down to the fundamental question of throttle versus collective. Some aircraft used throttle(s), with a fore and aft longitudinal motion, some had collectives, some have used Thrust Levers where the protocol is still “Up is Up and Down is Down,” and some have incorporated both throttles and collectives when designers did not want to deal with the Human Factors issues. There have even been combinations of throttles that incorporated an arc that have been met with varying degrees of success. A previous review was made of nineteen designs without attempting to judge the merits of the controller. Included in this paper are twelve designs entered in competition for the 1961 Tri-Service VTOL transport. Entries were from a Bell/Lockheed tiltduct, a North American tiltwing, a Vanguard liftfan, and even a Sikorsky tiltwing. Additional designs were submitted from Boeing Wichita (direct lift), Ling-Temco-Vought with its XC-142 tiltwing, Boeing Vertol’s tiltwing, Mcdonnell’s compound and tiltwing, and the Douglas turboduct and turboprop designs. A private party submitted a re-design of the Breguet 941 as a VTOL transport. It is important to document these 53 year-old designs to preserve a part of this country’s aviation heritage. INTRODUCTION During the design phase of an aircraft, the control of Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) aircraft, thrust should be a straightforward process.

  • X-15 Manuscript
    “X-15: WINGS INTO SPACE, Flying the First Reusable Spacecraft” by Michelle Evans University of Nebraska Press, Outward Odyssey series © 2012 In the Footsteps of the X-15 The primary place associated with the X-15 is Edwards AFB, California. However, there are many other locations where you can directly see the areas the rocket planes flew and landed, where men tracked them through the upper atmosphere and beyond, to find the surviving aircraft today, and where you may pay your respects to some of the men who made the world’s first reusable spacecraft possible. This appendix provides information on disposition of the various aircraft, engines, and mockups, as well as a tour itinerary for those interested in following the footsteps of the X-15. Beside making an excellent historic multi-day field trip for a group from scout - ing or as a school project, this tour is perfect for anyone with a bit of adventure and ex - ploration in their soul. The full tour can comfortably take a week or more, depending on how much time is spent at various locations and taking in the surrounding areas. Some sections, such as Palmdale/Lancaster to Cuddeback Dry Lake, then on to the Mike Adams memorial, may be accomplished in a single day for short excursions. 1. DISPOSITION OF ARTIFACTS Three X-15s were built by North American Aviation. The plant was at the southeast cor - ner of Los Angeles International Airport, which is now the location of the airport’s cargo terminal, near the intersection of Imperial Highway and Aviation Boulevard.

The Wright brothers made four flights that day. On the last, Wilbur Wright flew for 59 seconds over a distance of 852 feet.
