Welcome Felixpike,

From what I remember (I was there in 87/88) the Hawk's faced towards the Hangars. 151 Sqn used the northern apron, and 63 Sqn the more southerly one. I don't remember them using the disused for arming Hawk's during my time, but it was certainly used to park our many visitors.

I'm pretty sure there was a Whirlwind gate guard outside the SAR flight. I can't see it on Google earth, anyone know what happened to it?

DH
