The US Navy placed a contract with DouglasAircraft Company for the development ofthe TBD torpedo bomber in 1934, which was to be a technological jump in carrier aviation in a period where naval aviation was dominated by biplanes on carrier decks. This would soon change. The TBD Devastator’s first flight was on 15th April 1935. Subsequently Douglas quickly delivered a prototype to Anacostia US Naval Air Station for the evaluation and performance trials. The prototype performed well with only a slight alteration to enlarge the canopy to increase visibility. The US Navy BuAir placed an order on 3rd February 1936 for 114 TBD-1s. The first production aircraft was evaluated for testing purposes and was modified as the type's only seaplane variant when it was fitted with floats as the TBD-1A. The TBD was powered by the 850 horsepower Pratt & Whitney R-1830-64 Twin Wasp radial engine.

Pathfinder P-38s For No.5 Group RAF Bomber Command 1944

That 5 Group Bomber Command experimented with using the North American P-51 Mustang in the hands of 617 Squadron to carry out the precision marking of targets during daylight raids during the summer of 1944 is comparatively well known. That 5 Group also experimented with the Lockheed P-38 Lightning to carry out a similar role by both day and night is less well known and the colour schemes carried by these P-38 Lightnings are enigmatic to say the least.

beau finale beaufighter tf.10

the bristol beaufighter is an aircraft i’vealways liked although an example hasnever made its way across my workbench because it is essentially a world war ii aircraft, which means that it is outside my usual area of interest.
