Contents Listing - Articles & Features in this issue
HARNESSING THE STORM SPIRIT - One of the least-publicised combat aircraft in operational service today is India's indigenous HF-24 Marut. The long development process and the current opera- tional status of the Marut are fully described in this extensive account from our Indian correspondent Pushpindar Chopra.
HS.1182 - A HAWK FOR YOUNG BIRDMEN - The Hawker Siddeley HS1182 is under development as the RAF's future basic trainer and is expected to remain in service at least until the end of the century. In this issue we present the first cutaway drawing and detailed description of the HS 1182.
YAKOVLEV'S LIGHTWEIGHT ? THE YAK-23 - In the mid fifties, the diminutive Folland Gnat attracted wide interest and much favourable comment for reversing the trend towards ever-more- sophisticated and expensive fighters. But before the Gnat flew, the Soviet Air Force had already put into service a fighter ? the lightweight Yak-23 ? which matched it in almost every design aspect. Our "Warbirds" features tells the story for the first time.
UNLUCKY SEVEN - The de Havilland Albatross four-engined airliner of 1937 was, and still, is, one of the aestheti- cally most pleasing of aircraft designs. It held great promise, but fate conspired otherwise, and as this account reveals, the seven examples built suffered more than a fair share of ill-fortune during the half-decade between the first and last flights of an Albatross.
FLYING THE GEODETIC GIANT - H A Taylor describes, in our "Viewed from the Cockpit" series, the characteristics of the Vickers-Armstrongs Wellington, the most noteworthy aeroplane to make use of the Barnes Wallis geodetic construction principles.
THE UNDECLARED AIR WAR - It was known to those involved as "the Nomonhan Incident" but to the world at large it didn't exist. It was an undeclared war, but none-the-less real for the thous- ands of troops involved ? and it brought Japanese and Soviet airmen into violent conflict over the Khalkhin Gol. A detailed account, to be published in three parts, is presented by our Japanese correspondent Eiichiro Sekigawa.
AIRSCENE - The monthly round-up of news and background to the news presented under section headings for Military Affairs. Civil Affairs, Aircraft and Industry and new Civil and Military Aircraft Contracts.
MODEL ENTHUSIAST - Modelling comments, the latest kits reviewed and a page of colour drawings of the Breguet Bre 693.
TALKBACK - Readers of AIR enthusiast offer comments of general interest.
PLANE FACTS - Answers to readers' enquiries from the AIR enthusiast files; Hafner PD.6 and PD.7 and Foster Wickner Wicko and Warferry.
FIGHTER A TO Z - Continuing the AIR enthusiast encyclopaedia of the world's fighter aircraft, from the Berliner-Joyce XFJ-1 to the Bernard 10.
IN PRINT - New aviation literature noted.
AIRDATA FILE - Technical data, photographs and general arrangement drawings for the Ted Smith Superstar 700, 1000 and 3000.
