Hi,

Vickers Model-1180 and Model-1181 were double deck airliner projects.
Does anyone get a drawings to them ?.

Hi,

The Vickers V.1400 was jet airliner project intended to compete

Thought we had the VC.2 pictured somewhere on the forum but couldn't find it, so here goes (from Air Pictorial, August 1955):

Hi Hesham

From an old "aviation Magazine"
The BAC double deck VC 10 as type 1181
Bye

 

[toura]

and also the VC 11 or type 1400

1954-ish: Viscount selling profusely; Viscount Major being schemed (to emerge as Vanguard); V1000 funded in R&D for RAF, VC7 offered.
VC10 sold to BOAC, 1957. By 1960s-late...empty, Weybridge as quaint history. What went wrong?

Vickers-Armstrongs (Aircraft) Ltd/Sir Geo. Edwards were Units within arsenal Vickers Ltd. 4/4/57 White Paper cut back Defence Budget. Vickers Board put Aircraft into BAC Ltd., 1/3/60, to ensure funding of (to be TSR.2). GRE, almost unprecedentedly, had won his Board Approval in 1956 to develop Vanguard PV, without Treasury Launch Aid (which came with a Sales Levy, to be re-paid before profit)...and Caravelle killed it, and with it any Corporate appetite for civil aircraft risk. So, quite naturally, Boards at Vickers (and elsewhere) brochured what BOAC/BEAC (thought they) wanted. But they were protected parastatals, insulated from commercial reality. So they specified parochially, as no sane operator wanted.

You can see a bit of VC.7 style and influence in some of those early Vanguard designs in regards to nose and tail shape and layout.

Hi,


here is some Vickers Vanguard projects,from TU magazine.

Would the high wing variant have had any advantages over the actual design?

Yes my dear PMN1,

it could lift much greater gross weight.

Really? How do you come to that conclusion?

OK, so basically you made it up and there is no data to support your answer

It's aerodynamics science.
