It is still all there on Google Earth. The city is now called Kannur and the St Angelo Fort is still called St Angelo. You can see the remains of the runway by the barracks. Only a short section, 333ft., but the end is 3,600 ft from the cliff on a bearing of 340 degrees.
At Strategic Air Command Headquarters at Offut, Nebraska in 1962 they still had a row of porcelin johns with no partitions or doors.
