The de Havilland DH.27 Derby was a large single-engined biplane designed to a heavy day bomber Air Ministry specification. It did not reach production. DevelopmentThe de Havilland DH.27 Derby[1] was designed to meet Air Ministry specification 2/20 for a long-range heavy bomber. It was a large, single-engined two-bay biplane without sweep or stagger. The upper and lower wings were fabric-covered wooden structures, both carrying ailerons and capable of folding outside the inner interplane struts. Apart from the upper centre section, the wings were of constant chord; this section was thickened, of greater chord and attached to the fuselage not by the usual centre section (cabane) struts but by a long streamlined pylon, which also contained the fuel tanks. The undercarriage was a split-axle design to allow a bomb to be released from under the fuselage. The main legs were mounted on the front spar under the inner interplane struts, with long axles sloped slightly upwards, the inner ends of which were braced back to the top of the leg and, separately, to the fuselage.[1] The fuselage[1] followed developing standard de Havilland practice, with spruce longerons cross-braced and covered in thin plywood. The rudder and elevators were balanced and the fin and rudder had the familiar de Havilland shape. The pilot sat directly below the leading edge of the wing and there was a dorsal observer/gunner's position. Within the fuselage between them, and with three portholes each side, was a cabin for the navigator/bomb aimer. The water-cooled 650 hp (485 kW) Rolls-Royce Condor III had a rectangular nose-mounted radiator, and drove a four-bladed propeller.[1] Two prototype aircraft were built, the first flying on 13 October 1922.[1] The Air Ministry preferred the Avro Aldershot over the Derby, with the all-wood Derby considerably heavier than the mixed-construction Aldershot while, unlike the Aldershot, the Derby had no provision to carry its bombload internally,[6] so no production followed. The two prototypes were based at RAF Martlesham Heath and the Naval station on the Isle of Grain until about 1924, and used for general duties and tests.[1] Specifications{{aerospecs|ref={{Harvnb|Jackson|1978|pages=163}} |met or eng?=eng |crew=three |capacity= |length m=14.43 |length ft=47 |length in=4 |span m=19.66 |span ft=64 |span in=6 |swept m= |swept ft= |swept in= |rot number= |rot dia m= |rot dia ft= |rot dia in= |dia m= |dia ft= |dia in= |width m= |width ft= |width in= |height m=5.13 |height ft=16 |height in=10 |wing area sqm=104.1 |wing area sqft=1,120 |swept area sqm= |swept area sqft= |rot area sqm= |rot area sqft= |volume m3= |volume ft3= |aspect ratio= |wing profile= |empty weight kg=3,056 |empty weight lb=6,737 |gross weight kg=5,237 |gross weight lb=11,545 |lift kg= |lift lb= |eng1 number=1 |eng1 type=Rolls-Royce Condor III water-cooled V-12 |eng1 kw=485 |eng1 hp=650 |eng1 kn= |eng1 lbf= |eng1 kn-ab= |eng1 lbf-ab= |eng2 number= |eng2 type= |eng2 kw= |eng2 hp= |eng2 kn= |eng2 lbf= |eng2 kn-ab= |eng2 lbf-ab= |max speed kmh=169 |max speed mph=105 |max speed mach= |cruise speed kmh= |cruise speed mph= |stall speed kmh= |stall speed mph= |range km=886 |range miles=550[2] |endurance h= |endurance min= |ceiling m=3,900 |ceiling ft=12,800[2] |g limits= |roll rate= |glide ratio= |climb rate ms= |climb rate ftmin= |sink rate ms= |sink rate ftmin= |armament1=1× 0.303 in (7.7 mm) Lewis gun mounted on Scarff ring in dorsal cockpit |armament2=Up to 4× 550 lb (250 kg) bombs carried externally[2] |armament3= |armament4= |armament5= |armament6= }}{{aircontent |see also= |related= |similar aircraft= |lists= }} References{{commons category|De Havilland DH.27 Derby}}1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{Harvnb|Jackson|1978|pages=162–3}} {{refbegin}}2. ^1 2 3 {{harvnb|Mason|1994|page=139}}
