Brooklands Aviation at Sywell used Little Staughton airfield from about 1958 to 1971 for all Varsity major overhauls . This included spar renewals,engine bearer mods and repaints in the new Polyurathane finish.
No 1439 Flight was formed at Hemswell 01st May 1954 for liaison work in Australia with nuclear tests. Can anybody confirm the Varsities were yellow overall ?
