I spent the 1st five years of my life just off Heston Aerodrome at what was then TS Broke, at that time the Sea Cadet’s headquarters. It was later bulldozed and the International Aeradio building constructed on the site. Anyway, I can remember being taken to the now closed Heston by my father on his motorbike on a misty morning and I’m pretty certain he stopped to talk to an American serviceman on the site. The only other possible link was the arrival at the rear of TS Broke of the ex-Fairey Aviation Cierva C.30A/Avro Rota G-AHMJ. Due to the proximity and the fact that Fairey’s had hangars at Heston, I suspect the Cierva may have been relocated from their to TS Broke. Yes, this is the same one that latterly spent many years at Old Warden with the Shuttleworth Collection, before moving to Kermit Weeks Fantasy of Flight Museum in Florida.
