Talk:Douglas D-558-2 Skyrocket

message: I've heard the M2 flt was because Scotty'd heard USAF was about to go M2, & wanted USN to get cred. The record lasted about 1 day...  Trekphiler 02:38, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Wasn't extending the vertical stabilizer was independent of the canopy modification? The canopy was changed early in 1948 (January?) on the #1 Skyrocket. I'm pretty sure extending the vertical stabilizer was a response to a transonic roll instability that showed up early in the program. That probably was done before the end of 1948. When time permits I'll check on it, and will make a minor edit if my recollection is correct.
On the note about the Mach 2 flight, Scott Crossfield was flying for NACA (not the Navy) when he flew the Skyrocket. He broke the record in the #2 Skyrocket, whose best known non-NACA pilot was Bill Bridgeman, flying for Douglas. Bridgeman flew its first flights after Douglas modified it to its air-launched rocket-only configuration -- possibly the best-known Skyrocket photo it of Bridgeman in the #2 on (I think) its first air drop. That was done with the Skyrocket bearing its Navy paint, when Douglas turned it back to NASA and Crossfield it was immediately repainted in NACA paint.
It's true there was some "interesting" competition for Mach 2 at Edwards at that time. It took Crossfields's skill as an engineer to figure out how to just barely get the Skyrocket to Mach 2 and his piloting skill to very precisely fly the required flight profile. They barely beat Yeager and the Bell X-1A to Mach 2, and of course there's lots more to that story.
On the whole though NACA and later NASA put forth a lot of effort to do good flight research instead of just lurching toward new records. The Skyrocket program was an example of one that did A LOT of flying just to gather data, usually trying to cover the flight envelope well as they expanded it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paul Raveling (talk • contribs) 01:23, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Furthermore, given the fact that his family clearly doesn't follow kosher dietary laws and his aunt is married to a pagan god (Nergal), it would seem that he isn't observant, though that doesn't mean anything beyond simply that.

replies: text: This is an exceedingly belated response, but I don't believe that RAF Hawthorn(e) ever officially existed. There was a detachment of RAF Rudloe Manor, known to the RAF as Hawthorn site or Hawthorn Det; this site is located just north of Basil Hill Barracks on Skynet drive. It's still operational, but is now managed by Astrium Services after the MoD privatized Skynet back in about 2001. Perhaps this is the place you are referring to? Pol430 talk to me 20:26, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  This is total OR recollection but to the best of my knowledge Hawthorn was a separate entity to Rudloe Manor. It was way underground, with just a small hut signifying the entrance. If you can find documentary eevidence to contradict I won't argue. I can ask my mother, still living. Signals Command generally is under-documented. There was a promise of a history around 2000, but I think the author died before completing the task. Wwwhatsup (talk) 23:48, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree with you re the lack of sources. I'm currently trying to pull together some reliable sources to write the 1001 Signal Unit article, but it's difficult to find anything for the reasons you mention. From what you describe, I think you're talking about the old GOSCC centre (which was basically a comcen). It could be that it used to be RAF Hawthorn, the names and site boundaries have changed recently with the development of MoD Corsham and the new GOSCC building (now above ground). It still exists, and the entrance is indeed little more than a hut. It's now located within the perimeter of MoD Corsham. That's all OR of course... Pol430 talk to me 09:33, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
