I lived there for four years, in Lochnaw, Kirkcowan and finally Mosscroft which was about half a mile from the Airfield boundary. During that time I got to see some of the most unusual sights and some of the most amazing standards of airmanship I have ever seen.
Where else in the world can an Atco ask a passing Lynx to come pick him up and try to find some dummy pods that just fell of a Harrier during its run n break. A few pints in the Crown that night for sure!!
I am just wondering if the place is still open as I am back that way later in the year and might see if I can get a visit arranged.
