This film ‘surfaced’ on the You tube list today. It was made in the 1990s at the derelict RAF Biggin Hill and at West Malling then being demolished. It is the voices that stand out though, many famous and not so ones telling their memories.

That was really good, though it definitely plucked the old nostalgia gland. When were the buildings demolished? And is the area developed now?

Thanks for posting that, I’ve not seen those buildings so close up since the late 1970s.

What the dastardly Germans failed to destroy the local council did a right and compete job!
Biggin Hill AF safe from land grabs?

Excellent, I really enjoyed watching this. I think anyone who was in the RAF at any time hears voices and sounds when they walk around deserted RAF stations. It evokes such powerful memories.
