‎* Selten. Mike Harker (* 29. November 1947; ? 1. April 2011 in St. Martin) war ein US-amerikanischer Drachenfliegerpilot und Pionier des freien Radios in Deutschland. Mike Harker flog als erster Mensch mit einem Drachenflieger am 11. April 1973 vom Schneefernerkopf des Zugspitzmassivs nach Ehrwald und wurde damit zum Vorreiter des Drachenfliegens in Europa. Im Dezember 1987 startete er zusammen mit Peter Samstag und zwei weiteren Mitarbeitern mit dem ?Betriebsversuch zur Erprobung des lokalen Rundfunks in Garmisch? den Vorläufer des privaten Rundfunksenders Radio Oberland. Anlässlich der Drachenflugweltmeisterschaft 2010 am Tegelberg startete Mike Harker zu seinem letzten Drachenflug. Mike Harker starb am 1. April 2011 auf seiner Yacht in der Marigot Bay vor der Antillen-Insel St. Martin eines natürlichen Todes. (Quelle Wikipedia)‎

‎The Flying Wings Of Northrop‎

The book is in Very Good condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The white covers have some light generalized toning. The text pages are clean and bright. "Northrop Corporation was a leading United States aircraft manufacturer from its formation in 1939 until its 1994 merger with Grumman to form Northrop Grumman. The company is known for its development of the flying wing design most successfully the B-2 Spirit stealth bomber.The parent company moved its operations to Kansas in 1931 and so Jack along with Donald Douglas established a "Northrop Corporation" located in El Segundo California which produced several successful designs including the Northrop Gamma and Northrop Delta. However labor difficulties led to the dissolution of the corporation by Douglas in 1937 and the plant became the El Segundo Division of Douglas Aircraft. Northrop still sought his own company and so in 1939 he established the "Northrop Corporation" in nearby Hawthorne California a site located by co-founder Moye Stephens. The corporation ranked 100th among United States corporations in the value of World War II military production contracts. It was there that the P-61 Black Widow night fighter the B-35 and YB-49 experimental flying wing bombers the F-89 Scorpion interceptor the SM-62 Snark intercontinental cruise missile and the F-5 Freedom Fighter economical jet fighter and its derivative the successful T-38 Talon trainer were developed and built.

Korda's brilliant work of history takes the reader back tothe summer of 1940when fewer than three thousand young fighter pilots of the Royal Air Force - often no more than nine hundred on any given day - stood between Hitler and the victory that seemed almost within his grasp. Korda recreates the intensity of combat in "the long deliriousburning blue" of the sky above southern England and at the same time - perhaps for the first time - traces the entire complex web of political diplomaticscientificindustrialand human decisions during the 1930's that led inexorably to the world's firstgreatestand most decisive air battle.Korda deftly interweaves the critical strands of the story- the invention of radar the most important of Britain's military secrets; the developments by such visionary aircraft designers as R.J. Mitchell Sidney Cammand Willy Messerschmitt of the revolutionaryall-metal high-speed monoplane fighters the British Spitfire and Hurricane and the German Bf 109; the rise of the theory of air bombing asthe decisive weapon of modern warfare and the prevailing belief that "the bomber will always get through" in the words of British prime minister Stanley Baldwin. As Nazi Germany rearmed swiftly after 1933building up itsbomber force only one manthe central figure of Korda's bookAir Chief Marshal Sir Hugh Dowwdingthe ecentricinfuriatingobstinatedifficultand astonishingly foresighted creator and leader of RAF Fighter Command did not believe that the bomber would always get through and was determined to provide Britain with a weapon few people wanted to believe was needed or even possible.Dowding persevered - despite oppositionshortage of fundingand bureaucratic infighting - to perfect the British fighter force just in time to meet and defeat the German onslaught.Korda brings to life the extraordinary men and women on both sides of the conflictfrom such major historical figures as Winston ChurchillNeville Chamberlainand Reichsmarschall Herman Goring and his disputations and bitterly feuding generals to the British and German pilotsthe American airmen who joined the RAF just in time for the Battle of Britainthe young airwomen of the RAFtheground crews who refueled and rearmed the fighters in the middle of heavy German raidsand such heroic figures as Douglas BaderJosef Frantiseland the Luftwaffe aces Adolf Galland and his archrival Werner Molders. Winston Churchill memorably said about the Battle of Britain "Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few." Here is the story of "the few"and how they prevailed against the odds deprived Hitler of victoryand saved the world during three epic months in 1940. US.NY,HARPER COLLINS PUBLISHERS,2009. hardcover‎

‎OPERATION VICTOR SEARCH.‎

‎Lavenham: Terence Dalton 1979. 172 pp large 8vo 9 1/8" H. Map endpapers. B&w photographs maps. "On the 20th August 1959 the prototype Victor Mark 2 bomber disappeared during flight trials over the Irish Sea. The captain of a coaster bound from the Mersey to the Thames noticed a splash some eight miles away when off the Pembrokeshire coast reported it to Ilfracombe Radio Station and made a brief entry in the ship's log. From then on Operation Victor Search was underway. Controlled by H.M.S. Harrier it involved more than 40 ships and 4000 men and women and was officially described as 'probably the greatest salvage operation of its type ever undertaken'. Those at sea toiled for long and arduous hours often in the most atrocious weather throughout a wild winter and much of the following year. When the final signal 'Return to harbour - search complete' went out the trawlers backed by salvage vessels had carried out more than 12000 hauls and nearly 600000 pieced of the missing Victor had been recovered. This represented 70 per cent of the aircraft and gave the Royal Aircraft Establishment Farnborough enough information for them to be 'reasonably satisfied' that they knew the cause of the accident."
