Los quatro Mosquitoes!

Los quatro Mosquitoes! 

Er; no... Actually chaps it's a I.Ae.24 Calquin, (Royal Eagle) flown by the Fuerza Aérea Argentina. Patterned on the great Mossie, it had Pratt & Whitney R-1830-G engines instead of the more powerful Merlins. Around 100 were built & served between 1947 - 60. 

Armed Forces Day!

We humbly Salute you, one and all!

Generations apart joined in bravery and dedication. 

Another fine memorial to those called upon to do extraordinary tasks.

My what a fab flock of birds!

When this covert recon Intel photo flew from our Top Secret files, me lovely Lt Carruthers came over all emotional and used her womanly wiles to entice me to take her up...

Talk about Air Cor..!  Ahem.

Any jolly Chap or Chapette know if there any fabulous Spitfires or Hurricanes with my call sign registration of WNG or WCO or even my Top Secret moniker of JTW?

If so, Please, PLEASE send Carruthers & I a photo, either in the comments here or via facebook https://www.facebook.com/RoyalAirFarce

Ta awfully, Wing Co

Spit - Fire

We're listening... (Before Radar II)

Early Acoustic ear enhancement 

Czechoslovakian single & double units 1920s

Mobile rapid response unit US 1930s

German Unit late 1930s-early 40s

Before Radar

Before Radar "Acoustic amplifiers were in widespread use to attempt to detect unseen incoming enemy aircraft.

The Scientific Eggheads from all the advanced nations developed what was then the latest technology to listen out for approaching engines via a now bizarre looking  array of devices designed to aid the ear of specially trained operators.

Most had a range of about 25km in calm weather.

While most were fairly mobile units,  England in the late 1920 -30s, constructed a series  of  "acoustic locator walls" and concrete antennas along the coast, some of which can still be found today.

Presumably if you listen out for them...

1928 10 metre Concrete Antenna ( England )

1930 70 metre Locator wall. Reputed to "hear" approaching aircraft from a very impressive 100km away! (England)

                                                     Acoustic "radar" 1920s U.S.A.





                       Japanese air locator 1930

US Army 1940

England 1930s

France 1930s

Introducing Pilot Officer Fairfax

Or is it..?

Ahem.
