Dornier's Golden Arrow by Ivan Berryman. Arriving too late to take any meaningful part in the war, Dornier's extraordinary Do.335 Pfeil (Arrow) might have made a significant contribution to the war in the air, had it gone into mass production. Drawing on the company's considerable experience with pull-push engine arrangements, the Do.335 represented a radical change in fighter design, resulting in an aircraft with a top speed of 763 Km/h at 6500m. Here the seventh of ten Do.335A-Os gets airborne from Oberpfaffenhofen en route for evaluation by the Erprobungskommando 335 in September 1944. |
Tribute to Fl Off Tom Neil by Ivan Berryman. Flying Officer Tom Neil closes on a Dornier Do.17 on 15th September 1940, just one of four victories confirmed on that day, the others being two Bf.109s and another Dornier shared. He is depicted flying Hurricane Mk1 V7313 of 249 Sqn whilst based at North Weald. |
Tribute to Wing Commander Werner Christie by Ivan Berryman. Norwegian ace Wing Commander Werner Christie is shown in his personalised P.51K, KH790, the aircraft that he flew whilst in command of the Hunsdon Wing in the spring of 1945. Christie's final victory toll was 11 confirmed kills before being shot down and captured in April. |
Max Immelmann by Ivan Berryman. Max Immelmanns Fokker E.1(E13/15) shooting down a Vickers Gunbus during the Summer of 1915. Immelmann is characteristically already scouring the sky above for his next victim. |
Tribute to Leonard H Rochford by Ivan Berryman. Recording 18 individual victories plus another 11 shared with other pilots, Leonard 'Tich' Rochford scored most of his victories in the Sopwith Camel. However, under the stewardship of the more experienced Raymond Collishaw - who became the second highest scoring Candian Ace of the war - he flew his early missions with No.3 Naval Air Squadron in the Sopwith Pup. He had forced two Albatros down out of control in March and May 1917 before the victory depicted here on 7th July 1917. In Sopwith Pup N6162 he shared in the destruction of an enemy seaplane with 4 other pilots north of Ostend. He is one of the top 30 Commonwealth Aces of the war, and was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and Distinguished Service Cross with Bar. He died in 1986 aged 90. |
Tribute to Peter Wykeham-Barnes by Ivan Berryman. Lattely known as Air Marshal Sir Peter Guy Wykeham, KCB, DSO and Bar, OBE, DFC and Bar, AFC - he is shown here baling out of his stricken Gloster Gladiator of No.80 Sqn over North Africa on 4th August 1940. At the time he would have been known as Peter Wykeham-Barnes - a flying Ace who would go on to score 14 victories plus 3 shared in a wartime career which also saw him fly with No.274 Sqn and command No.73 Sqn, No.257 Sqn and No.23 Sqn. Remaining with the Royal Air Force after the war, he became a test pilot and served with the US Air Force in the Korean War before taking serveral roles in the RAF, culminating in Deputy Chief of Air Staff from 1967 until retirement in 1969. He died in 1995. |
The Shield Wall by Ivan Berryman The Roman shield wall tactic involved soldiers forming a tight, protective barrier with their large shields, creating an effective defensive formation that allowed them to withstand enemy attacks while simultaneously presenting a solid front for offensive manoeuvres. |
Concorde over New York (Concorde Farewell) by Ivan Berryman. A sight never to be repeated as a British Airways Concorde bids farewell to new York in October 2003. |
HMS Bounty by Ivan Berryman. Forever associated with the famous mutiny, HMS Bounty sailed to the South Pacific in the late 18th century. After almost a year and a half on a botanical mission, the experienced Captain William Bligh who had previously sailed with Captain James Cook on expeditions, was ordered with his supporters into the ship's boat by the mutineers, led by Fletcher Christian. Ultimately, the mutineers settled on Pitcairn Island, evading the Royal Navy for some 35 years by which time only one survivor of the mutiny remained, and Bligh reached safety after more than a month. |
Beurling's Day by Ivan Berryman. George Beurling's Spitfire Vc shooting down the Macchi 202 of Italian Faliero Gellis over Malta. The crippled aircraft had been hit in the engine and radiator, but he managed to crash-land it and survived as a prisoner of war. This was the same day that Beurling also shot down Italian ace Furio Niclot and a probable Messerschmitt Bf.109. |
Erich Hartmann by Ivan Berryman. With 352 victories to his credit, Erich Hartmann is recognised as the greatest fighter pilot of all time, depicted here as his Messerschmitt Bf.109G prepares for another sortie. |
Trafalgar Aftermath by Ivan Berryman. Ravaged by the combined guns of the allied French and Spanish fleets at Trafalgar and by the great storm that followed the battle, a weary battered HMS Victory enjoys the relative calm as crew from HMS Neptune are despatched to take up the tow from the 3rd rater HMS Polyphemus for the final leg of her journey to the safety of Gibraltar, the flagship still bearing the body of Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson. |
A Hasty Exit by Ivan Berryman. P/O J E Marshall baling out of his stricken 79 Sqn Hurricane on 30th August 1940. |
Tribute to Ivan Kozhedub by Ivan Berryman. Considered the highest scoring Soviet and Allied Ace of World War Two, Ivan Kozhedub is credited with more than 60 victories in less than two years from July 1943 to April 1945. Seen here late in the war flying his Lavochkin La-7, he is also notably the first Soviet pilot to claim an Me262 jet. Awarded the Hero of the Soviet Union three times, he stayed with military aviation and served in the Korean War. He died in 1991, aged 71. |
Queen Elizabeth at Southampton by Ivan Berryman. No text for this item |
HMS Dolphin by Ivan Berryman. The nuclear-powered submarine HMS Repulse (S23) manoeuvres in preparation to berth at HMS Dolphin in Portsmouth harbour in the late 1970s. |
Tribute to Pilot Officer Ted Shipman by Ivan Berryman. Flying as Leader of B Flight, 41 Sqn, on 15th August 1940, Pilot Officer Ted Shipman and the rest of his flight found themselves among a mass of Messerschmitt Bf.110s that had been detailed to escort a bomber force of Heinkel He111s on a raid on the North of England. Having made one head-on attack on one of the Bf.110s, Shipman manoeuvred his Spitfire Mk.1 onto the tail of another and fired a long burst into it. This was M8+CH of Oberleutnant Hans-Ulrich Kettling of 1./ZG76 and rear Gunner / Radio Operator O/ Gefr Volk, whose starboard engine burst into flames and disappeared into the dense cloudbase. Shipman claimed this initially as a probable, but it was later confirmed as a victory when the aircraft was found to have crash landed at Streatham Nr Barnard Castle. Spitfire K9805 (EB-L) is depicted breaking off the attack as Kettling's stricken Bf.110 begins to burn. Ted Shipman would go on to serve with the Royal Air Force until December 1959 retiring as a Wing Commander. Ted would also go onto become friends with Hans-Ulrich Kettling, the pilot he shot down. |
Running Up by Ivan Berryman (PC) Hawker Typhoon Mk 1bs of 175 Sqn warm up for a daylight sortie from Lydd, Kent, in August 1943. Centre aircraft, JP496, HH-W, is that of Squadron Leader R.T.P. Davidson |
Bristol Boxkite by Ivan Berryman. Based on a design by Henry Farman, the Bristol Boxkite first appeared in 1910 and was put into service with the RFC from its formation in 1912. It was used extensively by RNAS training schools at Eastbourne, Eastchurch and Hendon, but the type was withdrawn from service in 1915 due to obsolescence. Military versions were distinguishable from production aircraft by having extended upper wings to increase lift under load, as depicted here. |
Half-Salvo by Ivan Berryman. A Bristol Beaufighter of No.248 Sqn, Banff Strike Wing, fires off a half-salvo of four rockets. |
HMS Victory - Home Before the Squall by Ivan Berryman. Against the darkening skies of an impending storm, HMS Victory is depicted entering Portsmouth Harbour. This iconic ship, launched in Chatham in 1765, is now preserved in Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard on public display and is still a commissioned warship in the Royal Navy. Weighing 2,162 tons, Victory was crewed by 850 men and carried 104 guns on three decks. |
