The designer,

Barnes Wallis, sald in a 90-minute lec- fun that his aim was to see a non-stop light from London tu Austral without refuelling.

Dr Walls, desismer 1 the Wellington bomber and the "Dem Buster bombs," ilustrated his talk with a film showing experimental flights leading to the development of the Swallow.

He alen Bernonstrated 0:1 rutomatically controlled model of the aircraft.

The Solution

Dr Wallis said the solution to long-distance supersonle travel

<!

was to manufacture an aircraft which could change its shape in fight-the Swallow was design-

to lake off

at and land subsonic speed with its wings outstretched and then fold them back to reach supersonic speed during its light.

He ald later that the British Government had rt- fused to Nuance is project any further after it had spent

£750,000 on it.

A1 1 Dress conference Dr Barnes Wallis said the Swallow would be capable of flying at | two-and-o-half times the speed

of sound.

The Swallow project had been handed over to the production side of Vickers Armstrong, who The thought were engaged on a design study for the Ministry of Aviation for a deck landing ver- sion of the aircraft.

Could Have Been

Referring to the past develop- ment of the Swallow, he thought that if the Government had spent a mere traction of the money they had spent on guided missiles the Swallow could have been "in the air already." "I don't think you will ever get a passenger version of the Swallow without a military one first," he said.-Reuter.
