Sparticle production and detection at HERA are studied within the recently proposed no-scale flipped $SU(5)$ supergravity model. Among the various reaction channels that could lead to sparticle production at HERA, only the following are within its limit of sensitivity in this model: $e^-p\to \tilde e^-_{L,R}\chi^0_i+X, \tilde \nu_e\chi^-_1+X$, where $\chi^0_i(i=1,2)$ are the two lightest neutralinos and $\chi^-_1$ is the lightest chargino. We study the elastic and deep-inelastic contributions to the cross sections using the Weizs\"acker-Williams approximation. We find that the most promising supersymmetric production channel is right-handed selectron ($\tilde e_{R}$) plus first neutralino ($\chi^0_1$), with one hard electron and missing energy signature. The $\tilde\nu_e\chi^-_1$ channel leads to comparable rates but also allows jet final states. A right-handedly polarized electron beam at HERA would shut off the latter channel and allow preferentially the former one. With an integrated luminosity of ${\cal L}=100\ipb$, HERA can extend the present LEPI lower bounds on $m_{\tilde e_R}, m_{\tilde\nu_e},m_{\chi^0_1}$ by $\approx25\GeV$, while ${\cal L}=1000\ipb$ will make HERA competitive with LEPII. We also show that the Leading Proton Spectrometer (LPS) at HERA is an excellent supersymmetry detector which can provide indirect information about the sparticle masses by measuring the leading proton longitudinal momentum distribution.
