I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

The Shack is the first military aircraft I remember seeing. I had all the recce card s from WW 2 and had no doubt see other modern aircraft, but this was BoB day circa 1954/55 and friend suggested we cycle to Hooton Park, there was no open day but the AUx called up on RAF Common and got passing trade - amongst others it was the Shack I remembered.
