I have added alot more memorial photos to my site over the past few months, if you are interested then have a look here http://www.airfields.fotopic.net/. I am always wanting to find new memorials in the Norfolk & Suffolk area so if anyone can point me in the direction of any I haven’t yet photographed then let me know.
The Carvair Cockpit here in the UK is at Halesworth in Suffolk, or at least it was when I last visited. I’ll try to get over in the next couple weeks and see if it is still there. From what I have been told it is the ex Southend aircraft.
Its a great series, and he is a brilliant presenter – thankfully I recorded all but one episode when it was on first time round as I don’t get the discovery channel where I am now!
Incidently, I used to work with him at Astraeus and had the pleasure of flying with Bruce a few times (I was crew, not a pilot) and the way he is on the series is the way he is in really life, the sheer enthusiasm he has for aviation is amazing!
I have a feeling the tower here was turned into a house for a bit before it was left to fall into its current condition. Perhaps someone could correct me if I am wrong.
G-VANA was there today but didn’t fly, for some reason I didn’t photograph it either! However I have photos of it from a previous visit. I gather from chatting to someone today, oddly enough he was called Keith as well, that there was two aircraft that came in this morning for the parachute club, then one of them departed fairly soon after arriving and they used G-CDYA today.
