A Great War 130-HP Clerget Propeller Boss, centrally mounted with a mahogany faced electrical clock, the laminated top edge of the boss stampd "AD 644 RH, D2590, P2650, 130 HP Clerget, 7 I`, 37cm across Clerget Rotary Engine (Type 9)- France. In 1917 the Sopwith Camel airframe cost ú874 10s, the Clerget engine that powered it cost ú907 10s, the fact that the power unit cost more than the airframe is often overlooked. The Clerget had neither the peculiar intake arrangements of the Gnome nor the strange connecting rods of the Le Rhone, its valves were actuated by conventional rocker arms from two pushrods per cylinder, these constituting a recognition feature Clergets were made in 110hp and 130hp models, and the 130 may have been a little overdeveloped, since it was subject to overheating. It used a special type of piston ring, called an "obdurator` ring, below the wrist pin to block heat transfer from the combustion area to the lower part of the cylinder, when this ring broke, as it was prone to do, the cylinder turned blue from the heat, Clergets were generally very well engineered except for this problem, those made in England by Gwynne were especially good. Used predominantly in Nieuports and Sopwiths, but also when captured in a number of German triplanes. Visit www.dnfa.com for condition reports

A "Battle of the River Plate` Royal Navy Group of Seven to Chief Engine Room Articifer F. J. Curnow: 1939-45 Star, Atlantic Star, Burma Star, Italy Star, War Medal 1939-1945, Naval Long Service & Good Conduct Medal, ERII (MX. 59983 F.J. Curnow. C.E.R.A. H.M.S. Ranpura.) together with certificate of service (enlisted 10 May 1939) and showing service abroad, mounted for wearing, good, very fine. H.M.S. Exeter 25 August 1939 - 12 April 1940,. The Battle of the River Plate, HMS Ajax, Achilles and Exeter engaged the German pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee on Wednesday 13th April, off the estuary of the River Plate on the coast of Argentina and Uruguay, in which was to be the first major naval battle of the Second World War. "The Graf Spee, despite having correctly identified Exeter, initially suspected that the the two light cruisers were smaller destroyers and that the British ships were protecting a merchant convoy, the destruction of which would be a major prize. Despite the lack of air reconnaissance Langsdorf called upon the immediate acceleration of the Graf Spee`s diesel engines, He closed on the British squadron at twenty four knots in the hope of engaging the steam-driven ships before they could work up from cruising speed to full power, this was to prove a costly mistake. Lansdorf could have manoeuvered to keep the British ships at a range where he could destroy them with the Graf Spee`s 11 inch shells while remaining out of range of the Royal Navy`s 6 and 8 inch weapons, instead the Royal Navy executed their own battle plan, Exeter turned to the North-West whilst Ajax and Achilles, operating together, turned to the North-East to separate the Graf Spee`s fire Admiral Graf Spee opened fire on Exeter at 19,000 yards, her opening salvo proved to be fairly accurate and by her third she starting hitting her target. An 11 inch shell burst over the Exeter`s mid-ships, splinters from this shell killed the torpedo tube`s crews, damaged the ship`s communications, riddled the ship`s funnels and searchlights. Minutes later a shell hit her B-turret, puttings its guns out of action, shrapnel swept the bridge, killing or wounding all personnel except the Captain and two others. At this point Exeter turned so that she could fire her port torpedoes, and received two more direct hits, one hit A-turret and put it out of action, the other entered the hull and started fires, at this point Exeter was severely damaged, having only Y-turret still in action, minutes later she listed heavily to starboard, taking water forward, but she still steamed at full speed and fired the one remaining turret. After an electrical fault this final pair of guns failed and Captain Bell was forced to break off the action` HMS Bonaventure 15th May 1940 - 31st March 1941 (Sunk, May 31st 1939). HMS Bonaventure was a Dido-class cruiser built by Scotts of Greenock and launched on the 19th April 1939, she served initially with the Home Fleet on completion, and escorted WS convoys. While on such duty with WS5a on 25th December 1940, the convoy was attacked by Admiral Hipper, although no damage was incurred or inflicted. Almost immediately afterwards the ship was ordered to the Mediterranean, on the 28th of December, Bonaventure intercepted the German blockade runner Baden (8204 tons) off Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, a capture was not possible due to bad weather, so Bonaventure sank the ship with a torpedo Bonaventure was a part of Force "F` during the Operation Excess convoy to Malta in January 1941, she was attacked by the Italian torpedo boats Circe and Vega south of Pantelleria, but sank Vega on the 10th January. She then participated in the Greek campaign, but on the 31st March 1941, whilst escorting a convoy from Greece to Alexandria, she was torpedoed and saunk by the Italian submarine Ambra, south of Crete with the loss of 139 lives.

Robert Taylor, Limited Edition Print, 250/1000, "The Dawn Patrol`, SE5A`s of No. 85 Squadron, Royal Airforce, Armentieres, 1918, signed in pencil by the artist and two Great War pilots, Gwilym H Lewis/R H Roberts, framed and glazed, 51cm x 70cm Lieut. (T./Capt.) Gwilyn Hugh Lewis, DFC. (Northamptonshire Regiment). "It is largely due to this officer`s ability and judgment as a flight leader that many enemy machines have been destroyed with very few casualties in his formation. He is bold in attack, and has personally accounted for eight enemy aircraft, displaying marked disregard of personal danger` Supplement to the London Gazette, 21 September 1918 Gwilym Lewis 1897-1993, was the oldest survivor of the Royal Flying Corps and, having shot down twelve enemy aircraft, their last ace. He numbered among his friends Mick Mannock VC, who was credited with seventy two enemy aircraft. Lewis was born in Birmingham in 1897, and was educated at Marlborough College, in 1915 he volunteered for service with the Northampton Regiment. After three weeks he found this hard work and applied for a transfer to the Royal Flying Corps. After a basic course of instruction at Farnborough he was posted to Upavon, the RFC`s Central Flying School and in April 1916 was awarded his pilot`s wings, he then joined 32 Squadron and on 29th May, with only four and a half hours of flying in a DH2, flew with his squadron to France in a clapped-out plane, while anxiously looking for a ship to land alongside in case his engine failed. Although the youngest pilot in his squadron he was soon in action. He recalled later a patrol in September 1916, "I was well above the rest when I spotted a two-seater Roland, I couldn`t see his crosses until he passed right over, then I could see the observer looking over the side with his gun pointing straight at me, I went as white as a ghost, but for some reason he did not open fire` Lewis was to lose many friends from his squadron, but his most heartfelt loss was his elder brother Edmond, an inexperienced pilot who was shot down on his father`s birthday after a single-handed fight with five German aircraft, it was a loss from which his father never recovered. In September 1917 Gwilym Lewis was made a Flight Commander of 40 Squadron, one of his fellow Commanders was Mick Mannock, who nick-named Lewis "Noisy", because he was so quiet In July 1918 Lewis was awarded the DFC, he was exhausted - and wise enough at the age of 21 to realise this, other more experienced pilots were not. On his last day in France at his farewell lunch, he recalled Mannock`s taking the great Irish ace, G.E.H. McElroy to one side and warning him not to follow the enemy down, because ground fire would get him. Six days later Mannock himself was killed by ground fire following down a two-seater. Five days after that McElroy was also shot down. Lewis spent the final month of 1918 as an Instructor at CFS, Upavon. He decided against a career in the new RAF and was demobilised in 1919, he was 21 and was never to fly a plane again. Visit www.dnfa.com for condition reports

A Great War, 1917 Bristol F2B Fighter, Laminated Mahogany Two-Blade Propeller, the ten hole boss stamped "200hp Sunbeam Arab 1, D 3080, P2650, G618, N17 AB 8210`, 3.1m high The Bristol F2B (Brisfit). By 1916 British Air-Command had decided that a replacement for the slow and very vulnerable BE2 series of aircraft was badly needed. Bristol at this time had designed a two-seater aircraft of girder construction, to overcome the restricted forward view for the pilot, the upper wing was placed only 12 inches above the fuselage, the pilot`s line of sight was obstructed only by the airfoil section, thus rendering good visibility forwards, upwards and forward, downward, the necessary distance between wing planes was obtained by moving the lower wing under the fuselage.The revised model F2B fighter/reconnaissance took to the skies, with its improved 275hp. Rolls- Royce Falcon engine, quickly becoming a tremendous success The engine was liquid cooled and the radiator, first deployed as side-mounted, was soon changed and located up front giving the nose a characteristic outline. The armament was a Vickers .303 machine gun mounted under the hood, with shooting synchronized to fire through the propeller arc through a round outlet in the upper part of the radiator. For the observer there was a Lewis machine gun mounted on a Scarff ring mount. As production increased during 1917 it became difficult for Rolls-Royce to keep up demand, and other engine alternatives were tried and employed, among them the Siddeley Puma, Hispano-Suiza 200 hp and the 200hp Sunbeam Arab The Sunbeam Arab being finally chosen, although others continued to be tested since the Arab variants proved to be somewhat under-powered, and the installation also altered the nose contours and exhaust stack arrangement. In September and October 1917, orders for 1,600 F2Bs were placed and by the end of the Great War, the Royal Air Force had 1,583 F2Bs in operation. A total of 5,329 aircraft were eventually built mostly by Bristol. Visit www.dnfa.com for condition reports

A De Havilland Gipsy Major, Mahogany Laminated Two-Blade Propeller, the eight hole boss stamped "DRG DH 5234/J/8, GIPSY MAJOR, D6 75 P4 4 A G 57402 JULY 1938`, with brass tipped leading edges, originally canvas covered, 2.1m. The De Havilland Gipsy Major or Gipsy IIIA is four-cylinder, air-cooled, inline engine used in a variety of light aircraft of the 1930`s, including the Tiger Moth, Hornet Moth and Leopard Moth The De Havilland Tiger Moth. During the early 1920`s de Havilland identified a need for an aircraft to meet the needs of the growing number of clubs and private flyers. In 1926 the manufacturers re-engined the aircraft with the new Gipsy engine and a legend was born. With an impressive power to weight ratio the Moth became involved in some of the most memorable record breaking flights of the day. A new version with a welded steel tube fuselage was produced in the late 1920`s, to meet overseas demand for a strengthened model. The Royal Air Force ordered 134 Moths, by 1939 however most of these original aircraft had been retired, so the RAF pressed at least 146 civilian owned Moths into service, they were used for training and a wide range of miscellaneous communication activities.
