Charlie, I remember the Bentwaters show, great days but now the nuvo locals do not like aeroplanes,

I still see Bentwaters a good venue, to reminder Charlie.

and what about WOODBRIDGE ? is it still there?

And the code letters are?

JC, I am sure your correct and it is a million times easier to get one of those eastern European smuggled ones than bothering to deac an old sten or something similar

Again the Police crash in and name names before they do the research on what they have found, if all deact and certificated there was no crime committed The protection of military remains I though only covered the likes of crashed aircraft, ships etc not maybe a stash by the Home Guard.

I do not know the full extent of what has really gone on as the press are the press and as is said, there is nothing like the truth to spoil a good story but from what I read from another poster above he knows something?
This stinks if its a legal collector as the Police could have knocked on the door and asked to see the collection, I am guessing many people visiting this forum will now be awaiting a for the front door to be smashed in.
If this guy has stolen or illegal arms then he will most probably get a stay in a nice hotel with some lovely clientele and shouts of don’t drop the soap ! If he is completely innocent I would like to see whoever set this raid up sacked and named publicly.
There are a lot of high profile cases been, going on and soon to happen, a lot of people will have their life destroyed in the press for false allegations, others have destroyed their own lives through getting up to no good, cant do the time, don’t do the crime but within this story could be someone who really did not know they had done anything wrong, now lets wait and hopefully see an official end without speculation upon the person concerned as it must be decided within a court of law.

Battle damage repair I would say

An interesting photo, I think its not a used airfield and still under construction but also looks like a 3rd runway running through but disused, maybe an update to an earlier field, I have scoured airfields of the eighth then and now without success so maybe a 9th base, should be easy to find in an photo because of its shape.
