FLIGHT International. 6 September 1962 59 de Havilland Gyron Junior D. G. J. 10 after-burner unit tor the Javelin whose nozzle petals are operated by Silcodyne' H hydraulic fluid. JCf\SILICONES WHEN THE HEAT'S ON hydraulic systems need I.C.I.'s 'SILCODYNE' H And when the test pilot opens the reheat throttle in his Gyron Junior Javelin research aircraft, 'Silcodyne' H gets a chance to prove it; de Havilland's experimental Gyron Junior D. G. J. 10 engine has a reheat unit that achieves a combustion temperature of 2000 K (3140°F.) to provide the very large thrust-boost required at Mach 2.5. Low-inflammability 'Silcodyne' H is used in the hydraulic system that operates sixteen petals in the variable area nozzle of the after-burner unit. This takes 'Silcodyne' H near very high temperature areas where its unique combination of properties is of vital importance. STABILITY over operating temperatures from —65°F. to+600°F. (bulk fluid temperature). LOW INFLAMMABILITY NO CORROSIVE ACTION 'Silcodyne' H flies, with D.T.D. 900 approval, to make a vital contribution to the development of high Mach number aircraft.
