Interesting that a Rolls Royce promotional film mentions Royce as he was the engineer insisting on quality and reliability whilst Rolls was into speed and performance and a night out at the Ritz. RR during the 50's were pathfinders in turbine technology as they had developed high temperature alloys from the massive investment in metallurgical testing. ' The Conway ' is in the DNA of the majority of turbine engines.

By the 1970s Rolls-Royce went bankrupt and had to be bailed out by the British government. Labour was in power and saw the necessity of saving the high-tech, defense-critical aircraft engine division but not the maker of quaint ultra-luxury cars, so the car division was sold off to the first of a few owners outside the auto industry while the "real" Rolls-Royce company concentrated on the aerospace sector.

Very interesting to me as my father worked for Rolls-Royce from about 1942/3, when he joined as an apprentice at Barnoldswick (with Rover, before it went to RR), until he quit as an aero service engineer in 1963. He worked on many of the planes featured, including the Viscount and the DC-8. as well as one that wasn't. It was the Ryan X-13, a vertical takeoff fighter built in California from 1955. It has an Avon engine as it was the best in terms of thrust versus weight, I was told (I was a schoolboy at the time). The San Diego air and space museum has one on display at its annex.

This factory of Rolls Royce is important for world industry more than semiconductors producers, like tsmc. Think about this - how many companies in the world produce gas tourbines?

Neat video. I wonder if the comet shown was one of the two that crashed... 🤔

@BobGeogeo 28 күн бұрын

The video says Comet 4. The accidents were Comet 1 and 1A.

Shame RR handed their blueprints over to the Russians.

Watching all of this testing of their cars, and yet, as beautiful as their cars were and as much as they were tested, they still hand built perfect garbage.
