The F-15EX represents the latest evolution of America’s vickers legendary Eagle fighter family, blending a proven design with cutting-edge 4.5-generation technology. The late Leutnant Karl-Heinz Ossenkop was a Focke-Wulf Fw 190 pilot with Luftwaffe fighter wing JG 26 ‘Schlageter’. Although intended to start its flying career fitted with Merlin 100s, the fifth Windsor (NN673) was to have instead featured Clyde powerplants and serve as the Mk.II prototype. Subsequently the number plummeted to 40 – all of which were to be Windsor Mk.IIs fitted with Rolls-Royce Clyde turboprop engines. Even as early as November 1944 the production order had been cut to just 100 examples.

There is a large collection of photographs and glass negatives of people, instruments and views of the factory. There is an excellent collection of early catalogues from 1860 and photographs, mainly of instruments, from 1870 onwards. In 1989 the business was sold to Bio-Rad Micromeasurements, an American company based in California, apart from the defence products, which were acquired by British Aerospace. This continued as a profitable business for many years, mainly selling microscopes, surveying instruments and micro measurement apparatus. After the war microscopes, survey equipment and engineers’ measuring instruments became the main products.

His race boats have been successful and he worked alongside Jaguar to marinise their engines for competition purposes. William (Bill) Bonner is well known as a Designer and Engineer and has produced world beating engines for Aero, Marine and Land use. Recently received a lifetime achievement award, he now looks to the use of alternative power and how this new innovation will require safety and logistic requirements to influence future marine design.
Demonstrating Vickers’ flexible approach to the end users heating, lighting and energy arrangements, the new system is not only compatible with lighting systems, but it also offers improved controls for multi stage boilers; thereby sharing the load to increase efficiency. Indeed, with typical payback periods of just two to three years, it’s an investment that will yield substantial returns for most companies.” Complete with an improved touchscreen controller and Calibrated to +/- 0.1°C, the digital air sensors enable the system to eliminate any wasted energy with precision accuracy. Designed to deliver accurate heating control with maximum efficiency, the new system enables commercial and industrial premises to gain control of their heating and reduce energy bills and CO2 emissions. Taking inspiration from your sense of style, design classics and the beauty of the natural world, we shape your project; meeting the regulations and functions of the layout.
He has worked on a new design for a hand built sportscar which uses the current Bonner V6, 6 litre petrol engine which puts out a staggering 900HP. As a licensed Aircraft engine designer and builder and repairer, based at Shoreham Airport. He has used his racing and speed records to create commercial and defence craft with novel designs for niche requirements. The latest property development is to construct a new hotel of 70,000 sq ft using all amenities John was subsequently head hunted to GE Capital where he looked after a FTSE 100 client followed by rapid promotion through regional sales management to General Manager-level heading up the eBusiness initiative within the company. Boasting a range of 4,000 miles, the aircraft was almost ready to fly when it was abandoned in March 1946.
After the sale of this operation in 1994, the Group concentrated on its property business and Professional services in the Construction Industry. To compensate for the fuel’s net, Wallis designed the outer wings to droop when the aircraft was sitting on the ground, and ‘flex’ on take-off as they took the weight. Maximum weight NK136 72,000lb (32,659kg), production aircraft 77,000lb (34,927kg)

In 1939 another factory was built on a larger site in Haxby Road and during the Second World War, of the 3,300 people employed by the firm, 1,400 were women. The new firm became Cooke, Troughton & Simms and in 1924 it became a wholly owned subsidiary of Vickers. On his death in 1868 his sons took over the firm which continued to expand and export goods worldwide, particularly astronomical and surveying equipment.

However, compared with the smaller types, the structure envisaged for the new aircraft was far more complex and required heavy support components throughout. This five-seat machine would be the last Vickers aircraft to use Barnes’ famous geodetic light-alloy arrangement, but the first fourengined type to employ it. However, rapid wartime development left this fine aircraft standing in the medium bomber category.

The failed Vickers Windsor
The production Windsor was to be known as the Vickers Type 483, 300 of which were ordered across seven batches in April 1943, with construction being undertaken at Weybridge. In early April 1945, NK136 was shown to overseas visitors, and in October that year, Vickers test pilot Douglas Webster ‘Tommy’ Lucke displayed DW512 at Farnborough’s German Aircraft Exhibition. By September 1944 the three Windsors had amassed 133 flights, many of which had been flown in excess of 20,000ft – with some attaining 31,000ft. Nevertheless, despite being the only airframe to closely represent a production machine, the flight was undertaken without any armament installed; this was finally fitted in January 1945. The third Windsor, NK136, was the only airframe fitted with armament, and consequently Vickers allocated it the new designation Type 461. However, before this could be properly investigated, the airframe’s career was abruptly cut short with the cancellation of Windsor production in November 1945.
