    Can anybody give us an ETD Duxford please ? I have been working for the last 4 days and would like a chance to see it before it goes.

    I liked it when it was at Greenham ,but hate to say it s got too big at Fairford. Long static walks, overflowing facilities . I was put off when I saw and reported Coke tins rolling in the wind onto the active runway some years ago. I much prefer the smaller shows or walking around Duxford this coming Monday.

    Darren, Thanks for the nice photos , I sent an e-mail to BBC Look East this morning asking if they could do a feature programme on the Liberty Belle with Stuart Smith presenting as he seems interested in the 8th Air Force.

    Pete truman,
    I agree ,the media is cr*p,They seem scared of aviation, I think because none of them know what they are talking about. I would gladly give my services to the Beeb for a fee to try and wake them up !!

    The other squadrons based there in Oct 44 were Nos.137,181,247,438,439 and 440. Lots of reading I’am afraid.

    Hello I am trying to locate the report for you and another member who enquired but it is buried somewhere in my loft with loads of aviation literature. I will endeavour to find but you could try the German AAIB:Bundesstelle fur

    Just quote the date 3/7/77 and I am sure they will be able to help . My interest is that i was shocked to hear of the accident and had seen him display at Duxford in the T-33.

    Attended the book signing today, well worth it and well attended. Six ex members of Nos. 582/109 Squadrons were in attendance. We must never forget the contribution these gentlemen made during the last war. The book is a lasting testiment to their skills as Pathfinder Lancaster crews.
