old sarum
Morning Treadigraph, you obviously live on the Webb estate, where I was brought up as a boy, 2 doors down from the cricket club, Hallowed land indeed, noses pressed up against the railings of Forresters Drive being amazed at the comings and goings of the Airways Association Austers, Mexican Vikings, a Leonodese Herald one Saturday morning, Morton's Doves, the Consul that frightened the life out of a 8 year old at 0400, as it thundered over the rooftops at zero feet, eventually followed by Gerry Freeman,s Dakota's, memories indeed!!
To correct my prervious post the Dingbat was stored wings against the wall in the Air Couriers hangar by the Terminal not up by Plough Lane /Forresters Drive, but there was a swept wing tailless glider stored in the huts there, which I think was German, called a Rhonbussard, apologies if wrong, no doubt my blond curly haired fellow spotter who lived in Forresters Drive, who I have no doubt lurks here will correct me.
