Next, more advanced F.8 fighter and FR.9 fighter-reconnaissance types were both operated by the RAF and exported to overseas forces. Besides several European air forces, these types also flew in Australia as well as with a couple of Middle Eastern countries, which as it happened were actually in war with each other. The Meteors became the first jets of the Israeli air force, but they were also pressed into service alongside Vampire jets in Egypt and Syria.

Development of jet fighter later to be named Vampire began in 1941 and related closely with development of H-1 jet engine, for which the engine section of de Havilland company was responsible. The engine was known later under its new name Goblin and its development was very successful. The Vampire was therefore ordered under Air Ministry specification E6/41 for an experimental machine able to be converted to a fighter plane. The design of the plane was fully adjusted to the new engine, which resulted in overall tiny dimensions of the plane, very low undercarriage and the tail planes being carried by two slim tail booms. The first prototype, unofficially named Spider Crab, flew for the first time on September 20, 1943 with G. de Havilland Jr at the controls. The trials were a success and an order for first 120 planes was placed in May 1944 and was continuously increased. The production planes were licence-built by English Electric since de Havilland was busy producing Mosquitoes. The original name Spider Crab was rejected by the RAF and changed to Vampire Mk.I. First squadrons got their Vampires in May 1945, but did not take part in the war. The development continued in further versions, besides the versions with DH Goblin engine, there were also versions with Nene engine (built in Australia), two-seat night fighter versions, two-seater training versions or naval fighter versions. The Mk.I version was also the very first jet fighter aircraft to be used by military of neutral countries, Switzerland and Sweden.The kit's plastic parts come on three grey styrene sprues and two clear sprues which are accompanied by a fret of photo-etches. The first clear sprue offers the standard, late type of the clear hood and also the original, early style canopy typical for the first Mk.Is. This part, however, was not manufactured to our standards, which we regret of course, and thus we have decided to rework the design completely and produce a second sprue with much more exact rendition of the early hood. The decal sheet contains markings for three RAF machines which differ by having various national markings on them, another machine with serial A78-1which was flown by the RAAF down under and the final option brings a very special French machine, in fact a remotely controlled drone named PorthosOriginally, the Vampire Mk.I kit was to offer schemes for just two operators of the type, the RAF and RAAF. It has been decided, however, that a new marking option will be offered in this boxing to make it more attractive for a wider range of modellers.

The obsolete Gladiator fighter biplanes called for replacement by some more modern piece of equipment. The Sweden's effort to solve this trouble by making a purchase abroad was only partially successful as because of the 1940 embargo, the US-made Seversky P-35A and Vultee Vanguard fighter planes could not have been delivered and Italian Fiat CR.42/J II and Reggiane Re.2000 machines were only kind of stop-gap measure. So the Swedish government took a decision not to rely on foreign supplies any more and commissioned a new and indigenous fighter machine to be built by FFVS's (Royal Air Administration Aircraft Factory in Stockholm) team led by chief designer Bo Lundberg.The first prototype J-22 aircraft took off for the first time on September 20, 1942 and the production airframes, known as the J-22A, saw service no later than the following year. Another version, designated as the J-22B, was later also produced. In total, the J-22 fighter saw service with seven Flygvapnet's Air Wings and remained on active duty until 1952. Between 1943 and 1946, they were the backbone of the Swedish fighter forces until their replacement by more modern types such as were the propeller-driven Saab J-21A and J-21R jet fighters and abroad-purchased P-51Ds and DH 100 Vampires.The kit contains nicely detailed resin parts with a PE-fret, white metal undercarriage legs and a decal sheet with markings for two J-22A machines. One of them is adorned with white stripes on its fuselage and wings which were used to mark aircraft taking part in an military exercise. The other kit option is embelished with a unit's badge in a form of a figure of the devil.

It was the second jet, after the Gloster Meteor, operated by the RAF. It replaced wartime piston-engine fighters and was in front-line service until 1953. The Vampire FB Mk.9 was a tropicalised fighter-bomber variant based on the Vampire Mk.5, which was in production from 1951 to 1953. It was a single-seat monoplane aircraft, of a combined wood-and-metal construction, powered by a DH Goblin turbojet. It featured twin-boom tail configuration with two wing-root intakes, bubble canopy and was fitted with a non-ejection seat. It was equipped with four Hispano cannons mounted in the fuselage nose. A Godfrey air-conditioning unit was installed in the starboard wing root of the FB.9. Two external fuel tanks or 500lb bombs could be carried under the wings, while eight 3' RPs could be attached inboard of the booms.Almost 1,600 Vampires of Mk.I through to Mk.9 were manufactured (of which 347 were FB.9s), and another thousand of other Marks were built under licence in other countries.The Vampire FB.9 equipped a number RAF squadrons in the Middle East and the Far East. Some FB.9s were also loaned by the RAF to the RAAF in Malta and to the RNZAF in Cyprus and Malaya. In 1953-54 the Rhodesian Air Force acquired 16 Vampire FB.9 fighters, fitted with a more powerful Goblin engine. A further batch of 13 FB.9s was obtained from South Africa in the late 1960s.

In April 1918, RFC Mousehold Heath became RAF Mousehold Heath, and following the war, Boulton & Paul Ltd took over the site as a test facility, although it should be noted that they had been present there during the conflict. During the latter half of the 1920s, the Norwich and Norfolk Aero Club was established and from 1933, four grass landing strips were built forming the basic infrastructure of the first Norwich Airport, although by the beginning of the Second World War, use of the site had been reduced although it remained operational as an airfield up to the 1950s when it was redeveloped into the Heartsease Housing Estate. RAF Horsham St. Faith and RAF operations In 1939, a new airfield was constructed at nearby Horsham St. Faith, and opened on June 1st 1940 as RAF Horsham St. Faith. During the early part of the war it became home to a number of squadrons; Nos.19, 21, and 66 flying the Spitfire I, No. 105 Squadron flying the Mosquito IV, and Nos. 18, 21, 107, 110, 114, and 139 Squadrons, flying the Blenheim IV, with the exception of No. 139 Squadron which switched to the Mosquito IV in 1942. In 1945, the base became home to No 65 Squadron operating the Mustang III and IV and the de Havilland Hornet F.1. The United States Army Air Force arrives In the autumn of 1942, Horsham St. Faith began to be used firstly by USAAF ground units and then shortly after and briefly by the 319th Bombardment Group (Medium) operating B-26 Marauders. The 319th quickly departed then they were reassigned to the Twelfth Air Force and moved to Saint-Leu in Algeria. It wasn't until April 1943 that the next USAAF unit, the 56th Fighter Group arrived comprising the 61st, 62nd and 63rd Fighter Squadrons flying the P-47 Thunderbolt. Again, occupation of Horsham was short-lived. Work had started on expanding the base for USAAF heavy bomber use and so the 56th FG relocated to RAF Halesworth in Suffolk in July. This was a move which was not entirely well-received by 56th FG personnel due to the relative comfort afforded by facilities and conditions at Horsham when compared to those at Halesworth. In January 1944, the 458th Bombardment Group (Heavy) arrived with their B-24 Liberators and comprised the 752nd, 753rd, 754th and 755th Bomb Squadrons. Offensive combat operations began the following month. The 458th BG remained at Horsham until July 1945 when they returned to the United States. Post war and a return to the RAF That same month, the base was returned to Royal Air Force command and over the next twenty or so years, became home to a number of RAF squadrons; No 23 Squadron flying Vampire NF. 10's (1955-56), Canberra's (1956-57), Venom NF. 3's and Javelin FAW. 4/FAW. 7 (1958-60). No. 34 Squadron (1949-51) on flying target duties. No. 65 Squadron (1946) flying Spitfire LF. XVIe's and Hornet F. 1's. No. 74 Squadron (1946-50) equipped with Meteor F. 3's and F. 4's. No. 118 Squadron (1945-46) with Mustang III's. No. 141 Squadron (1955-56) flying Venom NF. 3's. No. 228 Squadron (1959-64) Bristol Sycamore HR. 14's and Westland Whirlwind HAR. 2, 4 and 10's. No. 245 Squadron (1946-55) operating Meteor F. 3's, F. 4's and F. 8's. Nos. 257 and 263 Squadrons (1947-50) flying the same Meteor variants as No. 245 Squadron. No. 275 Squadron (1957-59) with Bristol Sycamore HR. 14's and Westland Whirlwind HAR. 2's and HAR. 4's. No. 307 (Polish) Squadron (1945-46) operating Mosquito NF. 30's and last but not least, No. 695 (1945-49) on target duties. A number of other wide and varied ground and training units were also stationed at Horsham during these years. Operations at Horsham St. Faith began to wind down from 1963 with the RAF finally departing the base in March 1967. Civilian use Following RAF use, the site was bought by Norwich City and County Councils and was redeveloped for civilian use. Two of Horsham's three original runways were closed with only the third being utilised. This was due to the runway location and direction which avoided flights overflying nearby residential areas. Norwich Airport finally opened in 1971, with charter flights beginning that year, a common operator being Air Anglia, although during the earlier years, only prop-driven aircraft operated from the site. As the years progressed, increased income allowed the airport to be expanded with the addition of a second control tower, although some of the original pre-war and WW2 building still survive, but have been converted for other uses. Norwich is home to the City of Norwich Aviation Museum, with a number of static aircraft exhibits both military and civilian, along with an extensive archive and display documenting the history of the airport. Destinations from Norwich do (or have) include(d); Amsterdam, Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Exeter, Rhodes, Palma, Manchester, Tenerife, Alicante, Málaga, Menorca, Ibiza, Heraklion, Corfu, Bourgas, Crete, Bergamo, Paphos, Jersey, Lapland, and Dalaman.

Construction of Ringway Airport as it was formerly known, in 1935, and the site partially opened in June 1937 before becoming fully operational in June 1938, officially opening with an air pageant to mark the occasion. The first scheduled flight to take off from Ringway was a KLM Douglas DC-2 bound for Amsterdam. KLM was, at this time, the only international airline to use Ringway. The Second World War and 1950s In 1939, the airport was expanded by the construction of a Royal Air Force satellite station to the north east for flying training and parachute training use, and was named as RAF Ringway becoming operational in early 1940. No. 1 (Coastal) Operational Training Unit RAF was the first squadron based there and No. 1 Parachute Training School RAF became active in June of the same year. The latter was responsible for training agents of the SOE (Special Operations Executive) to jump. Also based at Ringway was No. 14 Ferry Pilot Pool, Air Transport Auxiliary responsible for the 'delivery to unit' of aircraft built, repaired or modified by Fairey Aviation and Avro both of which also occupied large facilities at the base, and built Fairey Battles, Fulmars and Barracudas, along with Bristol Beaufighter's, Handley Page Halifax bombers and Avro York transports. Ringway was also instrumental in the development of prototypes of the Avro Ringway, Lancaster and Lincoln bomber. A large number of units were based at Ringway over the course of the war. Nos 4, 78, 253, 264, 296 and 663 Squadrons and numerous other units were located there. In 1939 No. 613 (City of Ringway) Squadron operated from the base and then again post war flying Supermarine Spitfires and later, de Havilland Vampires as part of the Royal Auxiliary Air Force. After the war and into the first half of the 1950s, the facility started to introduce civilian traffic once more, with initially, pleasure flights being operated by Airviews Ltd. In 1946, Air France commenced services from Ringway, and in 1953, Sabena Belgian World Airlines began trans-Atlantic flights from Ringway to New York flying Douglas DC-6Bs, along with British European Airways and Dan-Air also operating services. In 1957, the Royal Auxiliary Air Force disbanded its squadrons and RAF Ringway was closed and came totally under civilian use as a cargo and maintenance hub. In 1958, construction began of what would become Terminal 1, with a number of existing buildings from the RAF Ringway era being demolished to make way for this new facility. The main runway was also extend to 7000 ft allowing longer range aircraft to land at the airport. Terminal 1 opened towards the end of 1962. The 1960s and 1970s Throughout the first half of the 1960s air traffic began to build at Ringway, with airlines large and small using the facility. Among regular users during the '60s were; Austrian Airlines, Dan-Air, Falcon Airways, Martins Air Charter, Air Safaris, Autair International, Aer Lingus, Air Afrique, Balair, British European Airways (BEA), BKS Air Transport, British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC), Braathens SAFE, British Eagle, Caledonian, Channel Airways, British United Airways, El Al, KLM, Swissair, Union De Transports Aeriens (UTA), Britannia Airways, British Midland, British Westpoint, Canadian Pacific, Transglobe, Olympic, Invicta, Luxair, Cambrian Airways, Compagnie Air Transport, Air Ferry, and Seaboard World Airlines. This is not including minor operators or operators that made fleeting visits or flights that were diverted. A number of European air forces as well as the USAF and RCAF made visits or stop-off flights to Ringway too. 1970 saw the first flight into Ringway of a BOAC Boeing 747. This was the first wide body airliner to land at the facility, and heralded the beginning of a new era. Ringway had now become a truly global airport. In 1968, work on the M56 motorway was started and a link to Ringway Airport was built by 1972. In 1975, the airport was renamed as Manchester International Airport, replacing the original Ringway name. The name would change again in 1986, when it simply became Manchester Airport. Also by this time, the airport had expanded greatly, and in fact, the complex straddled the county border across into Cheshire. The 1970s also saw the expansion of greater air traffic and more carriers using the site; Balkan Bulgarian, Wardair Canada, BEA Channel Islands Airways, Monarch Airlines, Air Spain, Aero Spacelines, Air Canada, SAS Scandinavian, World Airways, Court Line, Skyways International, Kestrel Aviation, Lufthansa, Northeast Airlines, Spantax, Cyprus Airways, Aeroflot, Alidair, British Airtours, Fred Olsen, British Airways, Iberia, Pacific Western, Trans International, QANTAS, Air Malta, British West Indies Airways (BWIA), East African Airways, Jugoslovenski Aerotransport (JAT), British Caledonian, Trans World Airlines (TWA), Pan American World Airways (Pan Am), South African Airways, Air Kilroe, Iran Air, Korean Air Lines, Laker, Malaysian Airlines, Singapore Airlines and Trans European Airways (TEA). Manchester International had become one of the busiest UK-based airport hubs outside of Heathrow. The 1980s The 1980s saw further expansion and improvement. As has been mentioned, the 'International' moniker was ditched in favour of Manchester Airport in 1986. Also in the same year, the World Freight Terminal was opened. This served only cargo and freight flights and included storage facilities, office and warehouse space and also three maintenance hangars, with facilities for over one hundred freight transport companies. In 1988, it was decided that a second terminal would be required to handle the huge volumes of traffic going through the airport, and in 1989, Terminal 1A Domestic as it was then known, was opened by Diana, Princess of Wales. The 1980s saw further carriers operating to and from the airport; CP Air, Inex Adria, Air Ecosse, Air Europe, Air UK, Aviaco, Aviogenex, Executive Express, Guernsey Airlines, Interflug, Kar-Air, Nor-Fly Charter, Orion Airways, Saudi Arabian Airlines, Icelandair, Transportes Aereos Portugueses (TAP), Tarom, Air Manchester, Capitol Airways, Finnair, Garuda Indonesia, Hapag Lloyd, Manx Air Lines, Nigeria Airways, Royal Air Maroc, Transavia Holland, Kenya Airways, Inter City Airlines, LOT Polish Air Lines, Tunis Air, Euro Air Transport, Loganair, Genair (British Caledonian), Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines, Air 2000, Air India, Cal Air International, Canafrica, Continental Airlines, DLT Luftverkehrsgesellschaft (DLT), Instone Atlantic Air Transport, Birmingham Executive, Gulf Air, Highland Express, Hispania, Inter European Airways, Martinair Holland, Mediterranean Express, Middle East Airlines (MEA), Emery Worldwide, Nationair Canada, Okada Air, Piedmont Airlines, Gamair, Scibe Airlift, Aeromaritime, Air UK Leisure, Amber Air, American Airlines (AA), Ryanair, Baltic Airlines, Corse-Air International, Delta Airlines, Air Atlantique, Connectair, London City Airways, Iraqi Airways, London European Airways, Lionair, Manxfly Aviation, Paramount Airlines, Spanair, Aer Turas, Aero France, Air Hong Kong, Air Atlanta Icelandic, Air Liberte, Alitalia, BHT BoÄŸaziçi, Biman Bangladesh, Business Air, Delta Air Transport (DAT), Europe Aero Service (EAS), Scottish European, Hawaiian Air, Hot Air, Lufttransport-Unternehmen (LTU), United Parcel Service (UPS), Noble Air, Novair International, Oasis Airlines, Paramount Airways, Trans-Mediterranean Airways (TMA), Trans Ocean Airways, and Worldways Canada. 1990s and into the 21st century Terminal 2 was opened in 1993 by the Duke of Edinburgh, and the same year saw the opening of Manchester Airport railway station providing a vital transport link into Manchester itself and to allow onward travel. Runway Two was commissioned in 1997, and subsequently caused protests across the area not only from environmentalists, but also from groups opposed to the proposed demolition of listed buildings that the location of the runway would cause. Construction of the runway started nevertheless and it was opened in early 2001. Terminal 1A was renamed as Terminal 3 and in 1998 a new British Airways extension was opened at that location. Further facilities were constructed at Manchester and by the early 2000s, the airport was handling some 15 to 20 million passengers a year. A new coach, bus and rail hub was opened in 2004, and that same year, it was announced that the airport would be expanded to enable the new Airbus A380, currently the worlds largest passenger airliner, with Emirates Airlines beginning flights in September 2010. Work also began on upgrading Runway 1 in 2011, along with a terminus for the Manchester Metrolink in the same year. Examples of carriers seen at or operating to and from the airport during the '90s and 2000s not listed above are as follows; Air Atlantis, Air Europa, Air Europe Express, Air Holland, Air Niugini, Business Air, Canadian Airlines International, Emirates, Futura, Aero Lloyd, American Trans Air, Nortjet, Princess Air, Zambia Airways, Air Koryo, ACS Cargo, Air Columbus, Air Littoral, Air Transat, ATI, BASE Business Airlines, Excalibur, Kalitta Flying Services, Nordic East, DHL, Royal Air Maroc, Silk Air, Viva Air, Aire d' Evasions, Air Foyle, Istanbul Airlines, Jersey European, Lauda Air, Premiair, TNT Cargo, Translift Airways, TUR Avrupa Hava Yollari, Air Ukraine, AirAlfa, Air Ops, Airworld, Ambassador Airways, British World Airways, Regional Airlines, Suckling Airways, Southern Air Transport, Turkish Airlines, Air Lanka, Advance Cargo, Aerocondor, Eurodirect, Polar Air Cargo, Sabre Air, Transwede, Uzbekistan Airways, Air Inter, Sunways, Crossair, CSA Czech Airlines, Onur Air, Palmair, Pakistan International Airlines (PIA), Peach Air, Swedair, Virgin Atlantic, Air Engiadina, Air Mauritius, Air Plus, Air Scandic, Canarias Regional Air, Croatia Airlines, Cubana, Debonair, Flying Colours, Islandsflug, L' Aeropostale, Maersk Air, Malmo Aviation, Miami Air, Sun Country, Portugalia, Skyservice, Sobelair, Streamline, Trans Arabian Air Transport (TAAT), Virgin Express, Viva Air, VLM, Aero Continente, Air Toulouse, Air VIA, AirStan Heavylift, Canada 3000, Condor, EuroCypria, Belair, Apple Vacations, JMC Air, Keenair, Skydrift, Virgin Sun, Gill Airways, Go Fly, Heavylift Cargo, Iberworld, KLM UK, Pegasus, Royal, Royal Jordanian, Aeris, TCS Expeditions, Air Anatolia, Tailwind Airlines, TUI, Easyjet, Thomas Cook, Etihad, Aurigny, Eurowings, Jet2, Enter Air, Flybe, Alba Star, Belavia, Hainan Airlines, Blue Islands, Air Charter Scotland, Qatar Airways, Pullmantur Air, AnAir, Antonov Airlines, and Danish Air Transport. Of course, the operator lists are not exhaustive! Looking to the future, Manchester Airport will undoubtedly continue to expand as the years progress, and will continue to be one of the United Kingdoms' leading air transport hubs. The base itself It will be noted from the schematic diagram that there are items that will need to be added to the base. The main one is part of the terminus which runs along the flight line. Aerial measurements are given for this, but it will be down to the modeller to research the building and how to construct it. This area can, of course, be trimmed off.","Vinyl Bases","Catalogue","2","£16.66" "Kits-World","KWB144-482","1:144","'Marston Mat' Pierced Steel Plank (PSP). 225mm(W) x 225mm(H) 9inches(W) x 9inches(H)'Marston Mat', was a very common covering used for makeshift runways, parking areas and other military uses where rough ground was prevalent. Each panel measured 1 ft 7.5 in by 11 ft 9.75 in, and interlocked with its neighbour by a series of flat 'T' hooks and slots along each of the longest sides, which allowed a degree of flexibility of movement. PSP was used by Allied armies and air forces on all fronts during World War Two and continued in use through the Korean War and well into the Vietnam War. During the latter conflict however, PSP was found to be unsuitable to that environment due to vegetation growing through the lightening holes which could be ingested into aircraft intakes. PSP was gradually replaced with the improved M8A1 type which omitted the lightening holes. Millions of PSP strips were produced and it is still commonly found around the world to this day in both civilian and limited military use around the world.Applicable aircraft types:USAAC/USAAF/USAF/USN/USMC/USCG/US Army- Beechcraft Model 18.Bell P-39 Airacobra, P-63 Kingcobra, Bell UH-1 Huey, Bell AH-1 Hueycobra.Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, B-29 Superfortress.Boeing Stearman Model 75 Kaydet.Boeing Vertol CH-46 Sea Knight, CH-47 Chinook.Brewster F2A Buffalo.

Now, consider the title 'Royal Air Force Transport Command'... to many readers this may prompt images of huge formations of Dakotas, disgorging paratroops over Normandy, Arnhem, or the Rhine; others will have a recollection of the Berlin Airlift. On the other hand, many of us will recall seeing, and ignoring, the occasional Argosy, Beverley, Bristol Britannia , Hastings, Comet, or, perhaps, a VC-10, in the static park at a Battle of Britain Open Day, while they aimed their cameras at the Hunters, Gloster Javelins, Lightnings, V-Bombers, or Shackletons on show- these were the exciting defenders of these isles; and those others..?
