Restoring a Spitfire - An insight into building, restoring and returning Spitfires to the skies

The Spitfire remains one of the most iconic combat aircraft and to own an airworthy example is the Holy Grail for warbird collectors. For an aircraft that first flew more than 70 years ago it may seem incongruous that there is a flourishing industry centred on this aircraft in the 21st century.

The Merlin: The Engine That Won the Second World War

El Rolls-Royce Merlin es uno de los motores de avión más famosos de la historia. Impulsó aviones clave de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, como el Spitfire y el Hurricane, que defendieron Gran Bretaña durante la Batalla de Inglaterra en 1940. También fue utilizado en los bombarderos Lancaster y Halifax en misiones sobre Alemania, así como en el Mosquito, conocido por su precisión en bombardeos y reconocimiento.
En Estados Unidos, el Merlin equipó al P-51 Mustang, que escoltaba a los bombarderos B-17 y B-29 en incursiones diurnas. El Mustang también operó en el norte de África, el Mediterráneo y el Pacífico. Este motor fue clave en la victoria aliada.
El Merlin sigue siendo un símbolo y su característico sonido aún se escucha en Inglaterra, especialmente en exhibiciones del Battle o Britain Memorial Flight. Recientemente apareció en la celebración del centenario de la RAF, con un Lancaster liderando una formación de Spitfires y Hurricanes.
El expiloto Gordon Wilson narra el desarrollo y uso de este motor en la guerra, incluyendo relatos de las tripulaciones que dependían de él.

WK275 : The Restoration and Preservation of the Last Supermarine Swift F4

WK275 is a unique historic airframe and the only Supermarine Swift F4 left in the world. The aircraft spent 46 years outside an army surplus store before being purchased off eBay in 2012 and restored by Jet Art Aviation to static display condition.
It now resides with Vulcan to the Sky which draws 1,500 paying visitors a month who will see WK275 and the other famous artefacts on site.

Guy Ellis sets the scene of the importance of Britain's early jets, covers the development of the Swift, which puts WK275 in context, then traces the heritage of that aircraft, its operational life, how it was acquired and finally the full story of its restoration with a plethora of detailed photographs, drawings and publicity images.

The Swift pioneered the second generation of jet fighters and by recording the full story of one special aircraft, Guy Ellis has delivered a fitting tribute to British ingenuity. Ideal for exhibit visitors, vintage aircraft enthusiasts, restorers and Supermarine aficionados.
