WELCOME TO AEROEXPO UK 2014
We are pleased to be staging our ninth AeroExpo UK event here at Sywell Aerodrome, voted by pilots as “the Best GA Airport in the UK 2012/2013”. A lot of work has gone into the preparation for this year's event and we are all looking forward to welcoming visitors to what should be an even larger and more exciting event than previously experienced. Our aim over the course of the year has been to add as much value to the visitor experience and build upon the foundations made in previous years. We are thankful for the commitment and support from all our Media Partners, Exhibitors, Pilots and Visitors. Your support makes this annual event a focal point for the Aviation Community in the UK. We have some notable new Exhibitor Line-Ups, New Initiatives and with the exciting inclusion of the RV, Vintage Piper and Europa Fly-Ins, there should be a real buzz around the place. Special thanks must be made for the valued support of our Event Sponsors, Jeppesen, Hayward Aviation Insurance and Cirrus Aircraft for sponsoring the event this year. I would like to invite you all to pass on any suggestions on how we can create an even better experience for you in the future. Please feel free to provide your thoughts, observations or experience to us and send to me personally at alex@avbuyer.com We wish our exhibitors a successful event and hope that all visitors enjoy a great weekend at AeroExpo UK!

THE UK’S FESTIVAL OF AVIATION
22 The GA Unit - improving our regulation of this key part of UK aviation The Civil Aviation Authority’s (CAA) new General Aviation Unit has been open for business since April 1. The Unit is the latest demonstration of the CAA’s determination to being a better regulator, reducing and improving our regulation of this key part of aviation in the UK. The unit will be dedicated to effective regulation that supports and encourages a dynamic GA sector. It will make a key contribution to fulfilling the Government’s aspiration for the general aviation sector to enjoy a safety regulation system that imposes the minimum necessary burden and empowers individuals to make responsible decisions to secure acceptable safety outcomes, to make the UK the best country in the world for general aviation. Andrew Haines (right) Chief Executive of the UK Civil Aviation Authority said: “I have been the first to admit that the way the CAA has regulated the UK’s GA sector has sometimes been disproportionate, and is in need of reform. The launch of the unit is a genuine indication of our commitment to regulate in a sensible and proportionate way. Of course, where there are clear safety justifications, the CAA will regulate to protect UK citizens, however we also recognise that we need to do that in a way that equally encourages a vibrant GA sector for the UK.”
The GA Unit has been set up in conjunction with government ministers Grant Shapps and Robert Goodwill
He added: “The new unit will improve efficiency and create greater transparency and accountability. The GA Unit has been set up in conjunction with government ministers Grant Shapps (above left) and Robert Goodwill (above right) in direct response to the coalition Government’s GA Red Tape Challenge which has made us take a long, hard look at how we regulate the GA
sector. I am delighted that our work in this area is being strongly supported by such key government ministers and by Patrick Ky (bottom right), the new Executive Director of EASA, all of whom are key partners in this important transformation.” Commenting on recent achievements and future work, Tony Rapson (right), a former Royal Air Force Group Captain, air traffic controller and aviation policy expert, who heads the brand new General Aviation Unit, said: “We have been working with both the Light Aircraft Association and British Microlight Aircraft Association to delegate oversight and support of nationally regulated Permit to Fly aircraft. This will devolve our airworthiness tasks and introduce a more proportionate approach. I expect the transitional work to be completed by September this year. We also plan to reduce the burden on maintenance organisations under Part M by removing the requirement for an approval to work on individual aircraft types, saving £1,600 for each type. And we propose to allow many Permit to Fly aircraft to fly at night and in instrument conditions giving them the freedom they have wanted for so long.
We will work with EASA to deliver its general aviation road map which will reduce regulatory burdens on EASA aircraft. “We also recognise that much of the regulatory burden imposed on the GA sector originates in Europe. That is why my team and I will actively engage with the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) to achieve better outcomes for UK GA. Specifically, we will work with EASA to deliver its general aviation road
map which will reduce regulatory burdens on EASA aircraft.” Work already completed to reduce the regulatory burden includes: > A project to de-regulate single seat microlights > Allowing hand held radios in permit to fly aircraft > Changing the requirement to reduce the amount of classroom training required for student pilots > Allowing gyroplanes to be used for self-hire Other proposed changes are: > Reducing the requirements for flight testing prototype or modified aircraft to encourage innovation > Allowing balloon pilots over 65 to continue as the single pilot of commercial balloon flights > Submitting to EASA a new alternate training syllabus for private pilots that is more in keeping with current needs > Reducing the number of questions in initial pilot exams to the minimum required Tony Rapson added: “I am very grateful for the support the GA community has given to me and my team in setting up the unit and helping us set our priorities. This has to be a partnership if we are to deliver real change.”
The GA Unit will also be holding a major briefing event at this year’s AeroExpo UK The GA Unit will also be holding a major briefing event at this year’s AeroExpo UK at Sywell Aerodrome on Sunday 1 June 2014 with Government ministerial presence also planned. The session is open to anyone attending Aero Expo event and will be an opportunity to ask questions and help set the agenda. Andrew Haines, Tony Rapson and members the unit will be on hand to discuss anything and everything in the main seminar room.

The AirBike was designed by Wayne Ison who also designed the very successful Minimax series amongst others. The AirBikeUK-Lite is built as an SSDR. It has a traditional built up wooden wing the same as the Minimax, and a 4130 metal tube truss constructed fuselage and empennage. It is a single seat light weight aeroplane that can be built as an SSDR in the UK, similar to the FAR 103 in the US, or as a microlight in the France. There have been some changes to the original design to make it compliant with UK rules, but these changes have not influenced its great flying attributes.

WORLD WAR 1 – CENTENARY 1914-18 and 2014-18

Per ardua ad astra
“Through adversity to the stars” The Royal Flying Corps (RFC) was the air arm of the British Army during the First World War, until it merged with the Royal Naval Air Service on 1 April 1918 to form the Royal Air Force. During the early part of the war, the RFC supported the British Army, by artillery co-operation and photographic reconnaissance.
> The BE2 aircraft was one of the first British fighters deployed to France by the RFC in 1914. This is the “Biggles” ‘plane based here at Sywell.
AIRCO DE HAVILLAND DH.2
This work gradually led RFC pilots into aerial battles with German pilots and later in the war included the strafing of enemy infantry and emplacements, the bombing of German military airfields and later the strategic bombing of German industrial and transportation facilities. The RAF was under the control of the new Air Ministry. After starting in 1914 with some 2,073 personnel, by the start of 1919 the RAF had 4,000 combat aircraft and 114,000 personnel in some 150 squadrons.
The Airco DH.2 was a single-seat biplane “pusher” aircraft which operated as a fighter during the First World War. It was the second pusher design by Geoffrey de Havilland for Airco, based on his earlier DH.1 two-seater. The DH.2 was the first effectively armed British single-seat fighter and enabled Royal Flying Corps (RFC) pilots to counter the “Fokker Scourge” that had given the Germans the advantage in the air in late 1915. Until the British developed a synchronisation gear to match the German system, pushers such as the DH.2 and the F.E.2b carried the burden of fighting and escort duties.
ROYAL AIRCRAFT FACTORY B.E.2
AVRO 504K
The Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.2 was a British single-engine tractor two-seat biplane which was in service with the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) from 1912 until the end of World War I. About 3,500 were built. The first RFC aircraft deployed to France were a mixture of BE2’s (No 2 & 4 Sqns), Bleriot monoplanes & Farmans (No 3 Sqn) and Farmans, Avro 504s & BE8s (No 5 Sqn). Initially used as front-line reconnaissance aircraft and light bombers; variants of the type were also used as night fighters. Like many warplanes since, the B.E.2 was retained in front line service after it had become obsolete, for want of a suitable replacement. After its belated withdrawal it served as a trainer, communications aircraft and on anti-submarine coastal patrol duties.
> The Shuttleworth Collection’s Avro 504K The Avro 504 was a World War I biplane aircraft made by the Avro aircraft company and under licence by others. Production during the War totalled 8,970 and continued for almost 20 years, making it the most-produced aircraft of any kind that served in World War I, in any military capacity, during that conflict. Over 10,000 were built from 1913 to the time production ended in 1932. Continued on page 31 >

NIEUPORT 17 C.1
ROYAL AIRCRAFT FACTORY R.E.8
> Royal Aircraft Factory R.E.8. > Original colour photo of a Nieuport 17 C.1 Fighter based in Aisne, France 1917 in French Air Force colours. The Nieuport 17 C.1 was a slightly larger development of the earlier Nieuport 11, and had a more powerful engine, larger wings, and a more refined structure in general. At first, it was equipped with a 110 hp (82 kW) Le Rhône 9J engine. Initially, the Nieuport 17 retained the above wing mounted Lewis gun of the “11”, but in French service this was soon replaced by a synchronised Vickers gun. In the Royal Flying Corps, the wing mounted Lewis was usually retained.
SOPWITH CAMEL F.1
The Royal Aircraft Factory R.E.8 was a British two-seat biplane reconnaissance and bomber aircraft of the First World War designed by John Kenworthy at the Royal Aircraft Factory. The R.E.8 served as the standard British reconnaissance and artillery spotting aircraft from mid-1917 to the end of the war, serving alongside the rather more popular Armstrong Whitworth F.K.8. Over 4,000 R.E.8s were eventually produced and they served in most theatres including Italy, Russia, Palestine, and Mesopotamia, as well as the Western Front.
ROYAL AIRCRAFT FACTORY S.E. 5A
> Jack Kearby’s S.E.5A Replica > Replica of Camel F.I flown by Lt. George A. Vaughn Jr., 17th Aero Squadron. The Sopwith Camel F.1 was a British First World War single-seat biplane fighter introduced on the Western Front in 1917. The aircraft was manufactured by the Sopwith Aviation Company, Kingston upon Thames, Surrey, UK, on a site only 100 metres from where this event guide is being prepared. It had a short-coupled fuselage, heavy, powerful rotary engine, and concentrated fire from twin synchronized machine guns. Though difficult to handle, to an experienced pilot it provided unmatched manoeuvrability. A superlative fighter, the Camel was credited with shooting down 1,294 enemy aircraft, more than any other Allied fighter of the war. It also served as a ground-attack aircraft, especially near the end of the conflict, when it was outclassed in the air-to-air role by newer fighters.
THE UK’S FESTIVAL OF AVIATION
The Royal Aircraft Factory S.E.5 was a British biplane fighter aircraft of the First World War.The first examples reached the Western Front before the Sopwith Camel. Although it had a much better overall performance than the Camel, problems with its HispanoSuiza engine, particularly the geared-output H-S 8B-powered versions, meant that there was a chronic shortage of S.E.5s until well into 1918 and fewer squadrons were equipped with the S.E.5 than with the Sopwith fighter. Together with the Camel, the S.E.5 was instrumental in regaining allied air superiority in mid-1917 and maintaining it for the rest of the war, ensuring there was no repetition of “Bloody April” 1917 when losses in the Royal Flying Corps were much heavier than in the Luftstreitkräfte.

WORLD WAR 1 – CENTENARY 1914-18 and 2014-18
Vauxhall’s support for historic aircraft as part of WW1 centenary Luton - Vauxhall Motors, one of only two surviving British manufacturers which supplied vehicles for military use during World War 1, is to support the “Biggles” Biplane BE-2, an authentic flying replica of the world’s first purpose-designed military aeroplane, as it commemorates the centenary of the outbreak of the Great War.
> (From L to R) Vauxhall Type D Army, staff car. “Biggles” B.E.2 WW1 replica aircraft, and Vauxhall Zafirer Tourer with special anniversary livery. A Vauxhall ZafiraTourer, carrying a special livery portraying the 1914 two-seat observation biplane, and a 1914 Vauxhall Type D Army staff car will accompany the aircraft at events across the UK through 2014.
The BE-2 aircraft will also cross the Channel on 13th August The BE-2 aircraft will also cross the Channel to commemorate the first deployment of the Royal Flying Corps to France in August 1914. The aircraft will land at Amiens in France on 13th August 2014, exactly one hundred years to the day from the arrival of the first aeroplanes accompanying the British Expeditionary Force. The aircraft will then take a leading role in the ceremonies organised by the Western Front Association and the British and French governments, including flypasts over Great War trenches and over a special ‘drumhead service’ at the Arras military war cemetery. Now, as then, the aeroplane will naturally require ground support. Between 1914 and 1918, Vauxhall Motors was at the forefront of such activities, with over 1,500 examples of the Vauxhall D-Type being built at the rate of about eight per week to the order of the War Office. This year the spacious, comfortable and economical Vauxhall ZafiraTourer will provide a similar support role, 100 years on.
War and the Churchill Tank in World War Two, so it’s fitting that we should bring these vehicles together for such an important commemoration.’
About “Biggles” Biplane: Biggles’ Biplane is a unique, authentic replica of a 1914 BE2c, Britain’s first purpose-designed military aeroplane. It was built at Northampton’s Sywell Aerodrome in 1969 for the film “Biggles Sweeps the Skies” featuring Capt W E John’s fictional hero. The film however was never completed and the aircraft was instead used for the BBC drama TV series ‘Wings’ and flown by a ‘WW1 flying circus’ in the USA. The aircraft crashed in Wisconsin in 1977 and was thought to be lost before the remains were discovered in 2005, in the back of a shed in upstate New York. Stephen Slater and Matthew, son of the film replica’s original constructor Charles Boddington, acquired the wreck and returned it to the UK, where the hard work began... Following a complete rebuild of every aspect of the aeroplane, “Biggles” Biplane returned to the skies again in May 2011 and now offers a unique sight and sound at air shows across the UK. For more information visit: www.biggles-biplane.com
‘Vauxhall is proud to support this wonderful recreation of a very important, historic aeroplane,’ said Denis Chick, Vauxhall’s Director of Communications. ‘Our company’s vehicles have played a pivotal role in both wars, with the D-Type staff car in the Great
