Brid
Thank you Fugazi for starting this thread. My family have many happy memories of Brid. As I said on a previous post, our father, Colin Chandler was the CO there for a time and we lived out at Carnaby. Two memories stick in my mind, one was that , when the tide was out Brid harbour was dry and nothing could move including the RAF launch. (was it a Pinnace or a TTL?). Secondly, a civilian light aircraft made a forced landing at Carnaby once and when my father and I got there we discovered the pilot was Hughie Green. Anyone remember him? The oil-pressure on one of his engines was a bit low so we drove him to the local garage to buy a couple of cans of oil and let him stand on the roof of our car to top up the tank. By way of thanks he took us for a flight and since I had just gained my PPL (I was only 17!) he allowed me to land it back at Carnaby. That flight is still in my logbook!
