I own bits and pieces from many crash sites. These range from momento’s from digs I have attended, to parts I have found on my own at various sites. In most cases people did lose their lives in the crashes, but in a way someone has to own the parts, so It might as well be someone who does actually care.
In many cases I have given parts to interested parties who I know will not sell them on open markets. I would not part with anything if I thought the new owner would look at it with a cor! someone died in this thought.
Take the part, own it for what it is, because even asking the question you asked shows you do actually care, so it will be looked after with the right attitude.
Does this make sense? 🙂

Good images, whats with the question mark on the fuselage :confused:

And here is one of the newly dedicated Sawbridgeworth memorial from late yesterday 14/5/06.
No images of the dedication ceremony as yet, I never got the chance to take my own but will post seperately ASAP.

I too admire the Beaufighter, but the Lysander is another favourite type in my mind.

Are the schools in Hertfordshire really that bad at English, I mean they were not that great when I went to School there.

I think Scimitar hails from Herefordshire And I for one think the spelling police should take a day off 😉 .

Glad you had a wonderful day. I never get tired of East Kirkby, being a two and a half hour journey for me I have to limit meself to three visits a year 🙂

The atmosphere is right, the staff are terrific. Next time you go get on the airfield tour, just dont do it in November, unless you want to imagine what it was like to spend a twelve hour day out on the dispersals maintaining the aircraft as the ground crews did.
Good pics by the way.
