FLIGHT International, 2 August 1962 world's widest range of small gas turbines ASTAZOU As U.K. Agents for the Turbomeca Com pany of France, Bristol Siddeley are now collaborating with Short's on the Skyvan Mk.2 for which the Astazou engine has been chosen. The Astazou turboprop and the new Aubisque turbofan combine high perfor mance with economy, and are designed for light aircraft. ARTOUSTE CUMULUS The Artouste airborne auxiliary power unit is now in service in the Canadair C.L.44, providing air starting for the main engines and other supplementary power. The Victor B. Mk.2 and the Trident carry Artouste engines for low-pressure air and electrical services, and the engine has also been ordered for the Short Belfast Freighter. The new Cumulus engine, designed for the same role, cuts weight and overall size still further to meet the more stringent specifications that will be called for in future aircraft. PALOUSTE A large number of Palouste low- pressure air starters, installed in self- contained trolleys, are in service with the Royal Air Force, the Royal Navy, the Ministry of Aviation and all the major aircraft and aero-engine manu facturing companies in the United Kingdom. A streamlined "pod" ver sion, which can be carried externally on aircraft, has also been developed for the Royal Navy.
