Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is reset, facsimile edition of the incredibly rare operational manual for the Rolls-Royce Merlin engine used in the Spitfire I and Hurricane I in 1940. Published by Rolls-Royce, PILOT'S NOTES: MERLIN II III & IV, 4TH EDITION APRIL 1940 was a miniature sixteen-page hardback booklet issued to RAF fighter pilots flying Spitfires and Hurricanes in the Battle of Britain. It provided a crib sheet of key characteristics, instrument and engine settings that should be adhered to whilst flying with a single Merlin-engined aircraft.The Rolls-Royce Merlin is the most recognisable aero engine in the world, powering the Spitfire, Hurricane, Lancaster, Mosquito and Mustang, the aircraft that made the difference between victory and defeat at critical moments in the Second World War - the Battle of Britain and the allied aerial offensive against Germany. The Merlin was literally the engine that won the war. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Rolls-Royce Ltd was originally a British luxury car but entered the aero engine manufacturing business in the First World War. First established in 1904 by the partnership of Charles Rolls and Henry Royce, it's car and aero engine divisions were later split and today it is arguably the most important aero engine manufacturer in the world.

Book excerpt: Few can have imagined, when Rolls Royce first ran its new PV-12 aero engine in 1933, that the soon re-named Merlin would go on to be the most famous engine in the world. In a production run that lasted from 1936 to 1956, Rolls Royce built over 160,000 Merlins in 50 different variants, and over 50,000 examples were built in the USA under the Packard name. The early versions of the Merlin produced around 1000 horsepower, but late version Merlins were rated at up to 2000hp and it was Merlin and Packard engines that powered some of the most famous aircraft ever flown, including the Hawker Hurricane, North American P-51 Mustang, the Avro Lancaster and the de Havilland Mosquito. The inside story of the most famous engine/aircraft combination in history is told in The Merlin Engine Spitfires Handbook. Using original RAF 'Pilot's Notes' from the Crécy Publishing archive, this handbook reproduces the unabridged content, typography and illustration of those historic documents. Covering the Mk1 Spitfire, the Mk9 Spitfire and the Mk16 Spitfire, the reader can see the progression and development of the Spitfire - from the first pre-war version with its Merlin II engine, to the ultimate Spitfire/Merlin combination the 1943 Spitfire 16 with its American-built Packard Merlin 266. The Merlin Engine Spitfires Handbook puts the reader into the cockpit of these iconic aircraft, seeing the very documents those Spitfire pilots had to hand as they flew and fought in possibly the best-known fighter aircraft of all time, a witness to the increasing power and capability of this supreme engine/aircraft pairing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spitfire Mk Is and IIs served only briefly in the frontline with the RAF, but their pilots were responsible for achieving impressive scores against the Luftwaffe during 1940/41. This volume details the RAF's first aces of World War 2 who helped stem the German tide during Britain's struggle for survival in the bitter years between 1939 and 1941. Early-mark Spitfires were notorious for their light armament, overheating engines and short range, but during the dogfights over Dunkirk and south-east England, then the first tentative sweeps across France, many pilots achieved scores of note.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stanley Hooker joined the Bristol Aeroplane Company in 1949 and tugged a rather reluctant company into the jet age, determined to give real competition to Rolls-Royce. So successful was he that in 1966 Rolls-Royce decided the best thing to do was to spend ?63.6 million and buy its rival. By this time there was scarcely a single modern British aero-engine for which Hooker had not been responsible.

Download or read book Rolls-Royce Merlin Manual - 1933-50 (all engine models) written by Ian Craighead and published by Haynes Publishing UK. This book was released on 2015-03-15 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rolls-Royce Merlin liquid-cooled V-12 piston aero engine is considered an icon of British engineering with a worldwide recognition. It was one of the most successful aircraft engines of the Second World War period and its incremental development ran hand in hand with that of the legendary Supermarine Spitfire to which it was fitted from the very beginning. From its genesis in the 740hp PV-12 engine that was first flown in 1935, the Merlin went through rapid development during the war years until in its ultimate version, the Merlin 130 series designed specifically for the de Havilland Hornet, it produced over 2,600hp. Merlin engines powered many more of the best-known Allied combat aircraft of the war including the Hawker Hurricane, Boulton Paul Defiant, P-51 Mustang, Avro Lancaster, Handley Page Halifax, and the de Havilland Mosquito. Many variants of Merlin were built by Rolls-Royce at their factories in Derby, Crewe and Glasgow, as well as by Ford of Britain at their Trafford Park factory near Manchester. The Packard V-1650 was a license-built version of the Merlin made in the United States. When Merlin production finally ceased in 1950, almost 150,000 engines had been delivered.
