Happy memories of Martlesham Heath in 1952, when I spotted some of my very first planes: Mosquitoes, Martinets, NF11, Oxford, even Viking VX141. I used to sneak onto the field from my Grandparents’ house through the boundary hedge, until turned off by a Landrover crew, and just watch them taxy by. They still have an active Aviation Society with a nice web site, as Scouse mentioned. Worth a look.
