De Osprey GP2 Osprey, ook bekend als de Air Skimmer, Sea Skimmer of Pereira GP2 Osprey, was een eenpersoons vliegboot ontworpen door Eut Tileston toen hij onder contract stond bij George Pereira, een privé vliegtuigbouwer. Met de komst van de amfibische Osprey II van Pereira een aantal jaren later werd het toestel met terugwerkende kracht Osprey I genoemd. Het oorspronkelijke vliegtuig kon alleen op water starten en landen. De eerste testvluchten werden uitgevoerd in de Sacramento delta.[1] Een enkel exemplaar werd door de United States Navy geëvalueerd als de X-28. Pereira zette het toestel op de markt als vliegtuig voor de privé vliegtuigbouwer, inclusief plannen voor een aanhanger waarmee de vliegers hun toestel zelfstandig zonder hulp van anderen konden starten en weer terugbrengen.[2] Dit is nu nog het geval.[3][4]

De Osprey GP2 Osprey, ook bekend als de Air Skimmer, Sea Skimmer of Pereira GP2 Osprey, was a single-seat flying boat designed by Eut Tileston under contract to George Pereira, a private builder. After the release of Pereira's amphibious Osprey II some years later, this aircraft became known retrospectively as the Osprey I. The original plane was designed to be water launched only. Initial test flights were performed in the Sacramento Delta.[1] A single example was evaluated by the United States Navy as the X-28. Pereira formed Osprey Aircraft to market the plans to homebuilders, including plans for a trailer that allows the pilot to launch and recover the aircraft single-handed.[2] These plans are still marketed by Osprey Aircraft .[5][4]

The Navy became interested in the project through a Naval Air Development Center study into patrol missions in Southeast Asia.[4] The study required that the aircraft be capable of flight under visual flight rules (VFR), be lightweight, cost less than 5,000 US dollars, and be able to be manufactured in Southeast Asia.[6] After examining Pereira's Osprey in 1971, the Navy purchased the aircraft and commenced testing it as the X-28A in the fall of that year.[7] Although the Osprey met most of the requirements of the program,[7] the program itself was cancelled without any further military examples produced.[4] The sole X-28 is now on display in the Kalamazoo Aviation History Museum.[4]

Having performed with many artists as a session player, he is most notable as a member of Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish, which he has performed with since 2007 and joined as a full-time member in 2013.[1]

Early life and career bewerken

Donockley was born in Workington, Cumberland; his parents were members of a band called Travelling Country. At the age of 16, Troy joined them, playing at many venues in West Cumbria. His father's record collection was broad and gave his son a love of classical, rock, country as well as traditional music. He is a multi-instrumentalist and a master of the Uilleann pipes. His ambition as a teenager was to travel the world as a musician, but he hated "empty pop created by cynical twerps".[2] The strangeness of the sound of the Uilleann pipes enabled him to become a session musician with prog-rockers The Enid in 1987 on their album 'The Seed and the Sower'.

Celtic-folk music bewerken

In 1987, he formed Celtic Rock band 'You Slosh',[3] recording 'Glorious Racket' with them in 1989. In the following year, he recorded as a session musician with Celtic-folk band Iona. This was at the very beginning of the boom in Celtic-folk bands, and both ventures were very successful. Donockley recorded one more album with You Slosh in 1991, plus nine more albums with Iona. He became an official member of the group in 1995 and left the band in 2009. Máire Brennan, a member of the best-known Celtic-folk group, Clannad, called on Donockley to be a session musician on 'Two Horizons'. In 1999, Donockley recorded 'Our Kate' on the album 'Debatable Lands' by Kathryn Tickell, contrasting two types of pipes with her; she plays the Northumbrian smallpipes.[4]

Together with Adrian Edmondson, Donockley founded the band The Bad Shepherds in 2008, performing punk and new wave classics on folk instruments.[5]

Maddy Prior and Barbara Dickson bewerken

Both Barbara Dickson and Maddy Prior lived in the north of England and Donockley met them both. Alongside her easy listening albums, Dickson also recorded folk albums. In 1994, and again in 2004, Donockley was a session musician for Dickson's folk albums and then went on to produce several of her albums including 'Words Unspoken' (2010) and 'To Each & Everyone - The Songs of Gerry Rafferty' (2013) . After recording Flesh and Blood with Prior in 1997, Donockley also became co-producer of her next four solo albums.

Nightwish bewerken

 
Donockley with Nightwish in 2007

Donockley's first appearance with Nightwish was on their 2007 release, Dark Passion Play, as a guest musician, providing some whistles and pipes to the songs "The Islander", "Last of the Wilds", and "Meadows of Heaven". He also joined them on select shows of the subsequent tour and appeared in the music video for "The Islander". In 2011, Donockley appeared as a guest on Imaginaerum, providing whistles, pipes, and vocals. He joined Nightwish again on the Imaginaerum World Tour, and also appeared on the band's concert DVD 'Showtime, Storytime'. He also appears in the Imaginaerum film from 2012 as a stage illusionist.

Following the conclusion of the Imaginaerum World Tour, Donockley was made a full-time member of Nightwish in October 2013.

He provides the main vocals for Nightwish's single ‘Harvest’, released in 2020. This was unusual for the band, as main vocals were usually provided by Floor Jansen.

Session work bewerken

Donockley has recorded as a session musician with Roy Harper, Midge Ure, Del Amitri, Alan Stivell, Status Quo, and Leah. Bruce Johnson of the Beach Boys has used him. Eight studio albums by prog-rockers Mostly Autumn feature him, as do Welsh prog group Magenta on two albums. He also performed on Etarlis, a 2007 release by Mermaid Kiss. He can be heard on recent movie soundtracks Robin Hood (Ridley Scott, 2010) and Ironclad (Jonathan English, 2011). Notably, he also performed at the Scottish leg of Live 8 with Midge Ure.

Classical work bewerken

Donockley has composed music for choir and orchestra. He has gone to great lengths to find the right kind of studio production. The Unseen Stream (1998) and The Pursuit of Illusion (2003) put the uilleann pipes in a sound mix that had never been heard before.{ {citation needed|date=February 2016}} His latest classical work is The Madness of Crowds (2009).

Personal life bewerken

Donockley lives with his wife Terri and daughter Mia in North Yorkshire, England.[6] He is a vegan.[7][8]
