When I was there, it was a former childrens’ home, that had been taken over as TS Broke and used by the local Sea Cadets, of which my father was an RNVR officer, as well as working at Faireys. He also acted as caretaker and in return, we had an appartment in the building. After his death in 1951, we moved to Hayes.
I learnt to fly at Cranfield, but haven’t flown since 1995, unless you count a trial lesson I had last week from Henlow in a C.177, taking a grandchild along for the experience. To be honest, I prefer older and should I say, simpler aircraft.
