operational missions prior to transition to actual combat aircraft. It is a tandem seating configuration with the student in the front and instructor in the rear. A single 4520 lb. thrust Rolls-Royce Orpheus 101 non-after- burning engine powers the aircraft. Equipped with wing mounted slipper tanks that are removable, the aircraft holds 2650 lbs. of fuel and has a max take-off weight of 9500 lbs. The GNAT has a service ceiling of 45,000 feet and a max IAS of 525 KIAS. Despite its high Vne, the GNAT only requires 4500 feet of runway and has of approach speed of 140 KIAS. The cockpit is pressurized to 4 psi and has heating and air-conditioning systems. Used by several military services throughout the world during the 1960-1970 era, the GNAT was also the aircraft of the British RAF Red Arrows Acrobatic Flight Demonstration Team. XR955 was the Number 2 ship for the Red Arrows for several seasons. This aircraft has recently undergone extensive overhaul and modification to eliminate excessive maintenance requirements and to simplify in-flight operations. A redesigned instrument panel layout equipped with American instruments and avionics will eliminate operational downtime and repair headaches. Conversion to a 28 VDC primary electrical system with a trouble free DC alternator and replacement of the air starter with a DC electric starter eliminates the need for extensive ground support equipment. Replacement of the liquid oxygen system with high-pressure gaseous oxygen makes service available anywhere. Equipped with dual King 720 channel Coms, dual King Navs with G/S and Marker, King ADF, King Transponder, Northstar MI Loran C and Sperry C-14 gyro systems, each cockpit has its own audio and ICS amplifiers along with audio and transmit selection. Control of Coin 2 tuning can be shifted to the back seat. The Collins 331A-3G HSI can track Nav 1, Nav 2 or Loran signals on the Nav needle along with continuous heading and radial information on the adjacent RMI. King KN-63 DME tuning is via NI or N2 with a repeater indicator in the rear cockpit. With a short wingspan and smaller overall size than the average jet of this performance, a GNAT can be hangar in a standard twin - engine hangar with room to spare. The Folland GNAT Aircraft is a two-seat advanced trainer jet used by the British Air Force and other military air force for advance student training in ACM and
