Tangmere - Spent my formative years lying in the long grass along side the threshhold watching the Hunters coming & going, then (later) flying out of there with the ATC.
Speaking of which:


A splendid sight earlier today, belting along the Cotswold line! Battle of Britain* Class No. 34067 Tangmere.

As I'd already completed my circuit consolidation when ULAS went to RAF Thorney Island on Summer Camp in 1970, I never managed to fly at Tangmere, which we were using as an RLG. What a missed opportunity! But some illicit doggers over the Isle of Widget was rather fun!




*I have other relevant photos, of course....
