CONTENTS
59 MASTERY IN MARINE HARRYING Since taking delivery of its first Hawker Siddeley Harriers two years ago, the US Marine Corps has brought its first squadron up to combat readiness and is now busy studying the air combat manoeuvrability of the AV-8A. A progress report, with colour illustrations.
63 THE FELLOWSHIP FINDS
A SLOT Fokker-VFW is extending the range of variants of the F28 Fellowship by developing a slatted wing which adds to the versatility of this short-range jet transport. Colour photographs and a cutaway drawing supplement this report from Amsterdam.
69 MR BEDE'S DREAMBOAT
John Fricker describes the history so far of the remarkable BD-5 - designed by Jim Bede to be built by amateurs and the subject of a somewhat chequered flight test programme to date, despite overwhelming acceptance from homebuilders.
73 LIKE GREASED LIGHTNING
Captain Eric Brown continues his "Viewed from the Cockpit" series on the German aircraft types of World War II with an account of the remarkable Arado Ar 234 Blitz, and we present a new cutaway drawing.
82 LISUNOV'S WELLINGTON
Converting a DC-3 to a Wellington is one of the more improbable projects undertaken in the interests of authenticity for film-making. The project, based on the Soviet version of the DC-3, the Lisunov Li-2, was undertaken in Czechoslovakia and is fully illustrated in this account.
84 FROM ITALY TO ENGLAND IN THREE DAYS Delivering the
SR.1 airship from Italy to the RAF's lighter-than-air base at Pulham, Norfolk,
set no records but was a three-day flight against the elements for the crew.
Capt T B Williams, an officer on the flight, recalls the excitement of 55 years ago.
91 THE BULLDOG BREED Part II of the Warbirds feature started last month, in which the export versions are described and we provide a page of colour profiles and a complete production list of the famous Bristol biplane.
