Aerial photographs of Hurn and Hamble Etc.

But if you’re going to buy from NH in Swindon, don’t expect an inexpensive purchase!

Well not if you actually buy actual copies of the prints.

The photocopy service is good enough to at least see if the photos are what you want and in many cases they won’t charge you for a small number. They sent me copies of all the photos they had covering 2 square kilometers for just shy of £11. Can’t get a sandwich for less than that these days.

Latest “Flypast” has a great article on Hamble airfield.

You could always contact National Heritage in Swindon. They have all the original wartime and post wartime RAF photos taken of the UK. These are the uncensored ones, not the ones used by OS and now partly available on Google Earth.

You just need to give them the grid reference of the centre of the area you’re interested in and the size of the area around it your interested in. They’ll give you a list of what they have and you can order cheaper but perfectly OK photocopies of them as a preview and then choose to purchase a copy of the original print if you want.

You could do a lot worse than take a look at http://www.airfieldinformationexchange.org/community/forumdisplay.php?41-Hampshire-Airfields.

Thanks for the pointer, I have looked at that site in the past but I am hoping some different and higher quality images may come to light.
