Yes indeed a brilliant show and sorely missed i was a North Weald Squadron member at the time and attended them all.Harvard formation team,Gary Numan playing the baddie in his Jap painted G-AZSC.The Concorde and Vulcan formation flypast, great memories i dont recall why it stopped but in my opinion was a fabulous show at a still much underused and historic venue.

:)I would jump at the chance to help out if one was available.I worked on the 41sqn examples when on a weeks ATC annual camp at Coningsby during the mid 70’s, happy days!

Around 30 – 35 years ago, as a less than 10 year old enthusiast, we used to travel to London once or twice a year, by Train, on the London Liverpool Street Line.

I always remembered looking out of the train window at around Wickford, as we headed back to Southend. On the north side of the tracks, in a field on it`s own was a memorial of some sort. It was a white painted prop, and i think it was surrounded by a fence. It was very remote and not near the town, as it was then.

I`m wondering if its still there ? And indeed if it was near Wickford. Just wondered if anyone new, Google Earth shows nothing, apart from a New Industrial estate, with names such as Hurricane Way, and Sopwith Close.

Thanks…in advance.

I think from memory it was a 4 blade prop surrounded by a white fence.It was between Wickford and Rayleigh. I believe it was in memory of an airship crash but cannot be certain.
