Hi Night Owl,

Finningley stuck with me ever since my Father took me, along with the rest of the Family of course, to the Battle of Britain At Home day there. I must have been about 20 months old and being in the days of Anti-Flash White V-Bombers was affected in quite a way when the Vulcan Scramble took place. I've never been the same since, and Finningley being not far from home for the most part, meant I grew up with an almost annual trip each September. My father had some 8 mm footage taken in 1966, this ended up in the hands of an uncle when my father passed away. He then got divorced and his ex got all dad's old home movie reels. Since then nobody who could help me as much as borrow it back simply to put on DVD with a chosen sound track, has been at all inclined to do so.
