Many thanks for your warm welcome to this thread in post #10010. I checked our family photo albums - no Spitfire wheel sized holes in roofs and no Bond Minicar to be seen.

They are using 01/19 for all flying at the moment while they rebuild 14/32. It has taken a year but in March I will be seeing the traffic again over my house, which is on the extended centre line of 32. Bring it on !

W/Cdr Hindley was very kind to me as a first time visitor to India. I well remember a large gin and tonic in his traditional style colonial bungalow. The talk with his family was all about the casting of tens of thousands of extras for the film Gandhi, which his wife/daughter ? was involved with.
