Yep! R 4 Robert and me and DOG.400 walked the apron, taxiways and full length of the runway, (2300m I believe) managing to avoid bikers pulling wheelies!!!!. .. .From 'getmapping.com' it is quite clear where the hangers were, but barely any evidence from the ground except for cut off I-columns and below floor ducts.. .. .Runway in remarkably good condition (then it hasn't been used for 'planes for since 1973!) including the numbers, centre line, piano keys and instrument touch down markers.. .. .Were u there Smaug? -we left the parking area at 11ish to walk around for about hour and a half.. .. .Also recommend the Ship in Ripley for lunch!. .. .DOC. . . . <small>[ 09 March 2002, 17:57: Message edited by: DOC.400 ]</small>
