Vintage ATCO,
In the mid 50's (before my father bought his third hand 1936 motor bike) I occasionally went to work with him on Saturday mornings, From Stopsley war memorial we took the bus to the bottom of Ashcroft Road/ Crawley Green Road then walked across green fields to the Airport. I remember Jean Batten's Gull, the abortive P.74 helicopter and long legged J.Ps among a lot of other cherished memories,including having my first flight in a Luton Flying Club Auster and no other kids believing me!
