Wow!

Thank you Frank for starting this thread, and to everybody else for their contributions.

My Grandfather Norman Harrison Bailey learned to fly at Mousehold in the 1930’s in, I believe, a Gipsy Moth, hence my interest in the airfield. He bought plans to make a Flying Flea which he started to build but thankfully for the family he never finished and he concentrated on farming instead!

My Uncle tried to find further info on the Club a few years back but was told that much of the pre-war records were destroyed by a Luftwaffe raid on the B&P works. So seeing the photos and Gordy’s info has made my day 😀
