See Peter Flint's book RAF Kenley ISBN 0 86138 036 3. OF 1965. Lived near Kenley during the war (Old Lodge Lane), exciting times for a young lad (aged 4 during the B.of B.) and in mid 1944 when we seemed to get every V1 destined for Croydon flying over us. Cadet Field Days during the 1950s' for flying in the Oxfords and Ansons of the Comms. Sqn.. Meteor went "off the end" of the main runway sometime in the early 1950s' (?) though why it was at Kenley can't say.
