1952 - RAF Pendesford - now Halfpenny Green, Wolverhampton
Then an MU (graveyard) for ex wartime ac including Spits, Hurricanes, Defiants, Dragons etc etc.
Boulton Paul's factory was about half a mile down the road
I lived in a cottage 40 yards away, and a discrete hole in the fence gave me access to this magic playground
After school, I spent many hours inside these lovely machines
Biggest memory during that summer was when a big aeroplane passed very high over the cottage - my uncle said it was a Bristol Brabazon - I believed him, however, Beags might dispute it
Love many, Trust a few, Do what you have to do!
