	Smer's 1/72 Fairey Fulmar Mk. I/II
		I of No. 803 Squadron FAA flying from the HMS Formidable in 1941. The second is a Fulmar Mk.
		II of No. 809 Squadron FAA flying from HMS Victorious in 1942. Both planes are finished in slate gray and dark sea gray over sky. The Mk.
		I from 803 Squadron is coded 6J, with the codes in sky, and carries what appears to be a unit badge on the nose. The serial is N4129 for this plane, while that for the Mk.

	Cyprus, 1955-1973
		Without surprise, there was actually no plan for a Turkish invasion of the island in the early 1960s: Turkey was in no position to launch such an operation.
		There was no modern road along the coast from Silifke to Antalya (this was constructed only in the 1970s), and no road between Antalya and Izmir (constructed only in the 1980s).
		No specific details about eventual operations of the surviving four Texans in support of the CNG are known yet.

	The Fairey Swordfish, Albacore, & Barracuda
		Four squadrons of Swordfish in all were attached to Coastal Command and put to every task for which they were capable: mine-laying, bombing of naval and ground targets, spotting, and reconnaissance.
		The last operational squadron was disbanded on 21 May 1945, shortly after the fall of Germany, and the last training squadron was disbanded in the summer of 1946.
		FAA Albacores remained in service in second-line squadrons in Africa and the Middle East for the rest of the war.

	Second World War Books Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		The second in command of a squadron was known as the senior pilot, and there was usually a senior observer as well, both of whom would usually be lieutenants.
		Squadrons were divided into flights, and for those squadrons providing aircraft for the MAC-ships or catapult flights, there could be an extremely large number of flights, all given a suffix letter.
		On 30/03, the squadron transferred for one of two temporary spells aboard Victorious and on 03/04 it shared ten hits with 830 Squadron during a dive bombing attack on the Tirpitz in Norway.

	Roden 1/48 Gloster Gladiator Mk. I
		No Gladiator review would be complete without mention of the three Gladiators reputedly named "Faith, Hope and Charity", which were the sole air defense of the Mediterranean island of Malta from May 5 to June 28, 1940.
		In addition to the national and squadron markings, the decal sheet includes extensive stenciling, the most unusual - and welcome - of which is Dunlop markings for the tires (tyres).
		Typical of smaller kit manufacturers, there are no locating pins on the fuselage halves but there are deep fitting tabs of good area for locating the lower wing, the tailplane and the fin - no crude butt joints here.

		He said no damage was reported on the ground and an inquiry has been ordered into the cause of the crash.
		The FAA says the premature cracks, if not corrected, could result in fatigue cracks in the lap joints and rapid decompression of the airplane.
		Fifteen years ago, the FAA determined that lap joint failure contributed to an Aloha Airlines incident where a part of the fuselage peeled off the aircraft while it was in flight.

	The Martin B-26 Marauder
		This was remarkable since no prototype had been flown, and for that matter no prototype was even formally planned.
		Four Marauders were used in the torpedo-bomber role at the Battle of Midway in June 1942, scoring no hits and losing two of their number.
		The RAF operated five squadrons of Marauders, the SAAF operated six squadrons, and the Free French operated six squadrons in North Africa.

	DeHavilland Hornet / Sea Hornet Review by Steven Eisenman (Classic Airframes 1/48)
		The first, a silver doped F.20 of 728 Squadron, FAA, at Hal Far, Malta in 1954 (Note: The Hornet was wood, so it is not a natural metal finish).
		The second is a FAA NF.21 night-fighter in Extra dark Sea Gray over Sky, which was assigned to 809 Squadron on HMS Vengeance in 1951.
		No question about it, you don’t have to be one of Her Majesty’s Subjects to appreciate this great looking aircraft.

	Guatemala since 1954
		No aircraft were damaged, despite a number of rounds falling within the base perimeter, then not a single round landed inside the hangars where A-37s were parked.
		No less but two parachute battalions were based at Gen. Felipe Cruz AB, near San Jose, while the Military Aviation School was meanwhile moved to Retalhuleu, under control of the Military Zone 13-16.
		Guatemala is still enjoying no peace or stability ever since, then instead of an open war it is meanwhile suffering from massive corruption as well as most terrible forms of political viollence and violent criminal activity.

	MoD makes a fist of it...
		The squadron embarked on HMS Indomitable in March 1943, and provided fighter cover for the Sicily landings in July of that year, with a brief pause at RAF North Front (Gibraltar) when the ship was torpedoed.
		The squadron remained part of HMS Eagle's air group until it was disbanded once more in February 1972, after the then-government decided that Britain no longer needed aircraft carriers.
		The OEU rejoined the squadron at Yeovilton in January 1994 and the squadron continued to convert to the new aircraft.

	Fairey Fulmar aircraft profile. Aircraft Database of the Fleet Air Arm Archive 1939-1945
		FAA Fairey Fulmar X8812 6F of 809 squadron of HMS Victorious.
		The Fulmar, N1855, was delivered for tests at the C squadron AandAEE Boscombe Down in May 1940, in the same month Fulmar N1856 joined 778 squadron at Lee on Solent with the plan to convert it to a seaplane, but in fact it was completed as a landplane version.
		However, it contined to be useful, being sent to 768, 767 and other squadrons to assist conversion of pilots to Barracudas eg DR664 at Lee on Solent by 810 squadron in April 1943 to May 1943.

	Aeroclub 1/48 Sea Venom (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		The squadrons were tasked with providing night and bad weather air defense for the Anglo-French fleet, and as strike aircraft for daylight operations over Egypt.
		During the operation, only one Sea Venom was lost, with WW281 of 893 Squadron making an emergency wheels-up landing aboard Eagle, during which it became the first aircraft to be saved by the ship's nylon deck barrier, though it was damaged beyond repair in the process.
		With all this masked off, I painted the lower fuselage with Gunze-Sanyo "Sky," which I think is closer in color to post-war FAA "Sky" than the Tamiya "Sky" I use for WW2 aircraft, and painted the upper surfaces with Tamiya Dark Sea Grey.

	Classic Airframes 1/48 Hornet
		Despite the addition of several hundred pounds of naval equipment in the three prototype Sea Hornets, they were only a very few knots slower than their land-based counterparts, with all other performance characteristics so close as to be indistinguishable.
		The first Hornet-equipped squadron was No. 64 which took part in the Victory Fly Past over London on June 8, 1946 from its base at Horsham St. Faith.
		The N.F.21 served operationally with 809 Squadron from 1949 to 1954, operating aboard HMS "Vengeance" in 1951-52.

	Classic Airframes 1/48 Sea Hornet
		801 Squadron, formed June 1, 1947, was to be the only operational squadron to use the F Mk.20, taking their aircraft aboard HMS "Implacable" in 1949.
		I did not have to do this for the observer's cockpit, since I had decided to open the lower hatch, which meant that the observer's seat was in the folded position that allowed entry to the very-tight cockpit; I am sure only very small men were assigned as radar operators with the Sea Hornet.
		Beyond these differences, assembly of the rest of the model was no different from what I had done with the F Mk.3, other than to use the parts for the A-frame tail hook.

		This one is the first of these and it has to be said the detailing, attention to detail and finish is first rate the airframe being superbly recreated, as too the markings, undercarriage and ordnance consisting of rockets.
		Its distinctive design features were a sharp delta wing, matched by a canopy that must have been very constraining due to its angular shape and like the modern F-117 it was a clean aircraft until such time that the missiles had to be launched when they would be despatched from their respective internal ordnance bays.
		This features an aircraft from No. 87 Squadron in 1942 and it has to be said that the detailing of the airframe is on parr with many of its rivals, the ribbed fuselage and access panels upon the wings being points of note.

		While some have suggested that the dogs were killed to hide evidence of radiation poisoning, there is no evidence that either animal was suffering from such a malady.
		Yet considering the extent of the cover-up underway at the time, and the number of people who feared for their jobs, the autopsy reports on the dogs could have been faked.
		There is no indication from his source notes that the author ever interviewed any of McVeigh's friends or associates, or did any independent research on the bombing whatsoever.

		There is no proper C-130 cockpit in SF at present, you may wish to copy over the cockpit folder from the P-3C.
		This aircraft was not flown by No 33 Squadron, nor has it worn the serial A20-809, but has purely been 'cannibalised' for spare components.

	1984 USAF Serial Numbers
		About 10 min after takeoff, crew reported an emergency (the no. 2 engine had shut down due to a thrust reverser not locked tight) and attempted to return to Dover.
		Cause is believed to be uncommanded unlocking of thrust reverser on No. 2 engine, although crew was able to shut engine down before thrust reverser actually deployed, aircraft was flying too slowly and selection of 40-degree flap led to uncommanded sink and contact with the ground.
		After No. 2 engine was shut down following a thrust reverser not locked indication light, crew continued to manipulate its throttle while leaving the fully-funcional no 3 engine in idle, on final approach this and improper flap setting caused a stall.

	Committee Reports
		For example, the plan states that both FAA and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration have similar performance goals in the area of aviation fatalities.
		While it should be clear that there is no prospect of support from the Committee to reregulate the airline industry, it should also be clear that airline competition is an area of substantial Congressional interest and attention.
		Included in the Committee recommendation is $17,205,000 to establish a helicopter squadron (HITRON 10) as the initial operating capability of the airborne use of force initiative which has shown promise in improving the Coast Guard's ability to intercept go-fast boats.
