    They used to do a lot of stuff over Boscombe Down, and various other places..Gayden? as well as Goose.. as it says in the logbook.

    I remember that he was not even allowed to tell my mum about some of the things they were doing as it was all top secret.

    My brother recalls that one day when my mum was out hanging out the washing dad was circling the house in the Victor and they were all waving at him, but i was only a babe then lol. We lived in Hemel Hempstead then, Leverstock Green…

    Hi Peppermint,

    Thanks for your help, wow this is interesting stuff, i do remember dad saying to my husband a few years ago in conversation about how they had to jack a plane up to get the bomb under, and how hilarious he found it, that they had to do so now this all ties in lol.

    What if the photo contains an air ministry stamp on the reverse stating that ti cannot be reproduced unless air minsitry permission has been obtained then?

    As the ones i have have this stamped on the reverse of them. These were taken in the 1950’s – 60’s
