    A google for Rolls Royce Heritage Trust might help.

    Always liked “the flying gas ring” when applied to the Walrus.

    Aeroplane Monthly didn’t start until 1973.

    I’d love to hear any comments from him regarding the Westland Welkin, if he was involved with it in any way.

    Hello Mark,

    Someone on another flightsim forum seems to have found a picture from it which should date from the late fifties. Take a look here.

    Greets,

    Stieglitz

    Yup, that’s the source.

    I don’t think that it is a good idea to publicise this place further – at least until they have reviewed their security arrangements. 😮

    The largely forgotten RAF Tealing still retains most of its technical site, despite being closed at the end of the war.

    Raises the thought – what would happen to this material if Scotland ever got the independence the Nationalists wish for?

    Roger Smith.

    Or, if Scotland’s First Minister carries out his threatened quango purge?

    Mmm, I think that Resmoroh is indulging – rather successfully – in a winding up exercise.

    Thanks for that Martti, its fascinating stuff. I’ll have to get a copy of the DVD.

    At one point there were plans to put a jet engine in a Barra. Were plans drawn up before sanity prevailed – and do project drawings still exist?

    Wot JDK said. Looks pretty complex but actually quite simple – only two movements. All done manually.

    I think that the stickie up thingies on the upper outboard wing sections locked into a point on the lower side of the tailplane?
