Remember the Memphis Belle was shot at that fenland airfield in Lincolnshire

I remember looking out of my MQ window at Honington in 1987/88 IIRC, watching a cricket match when the "Belle" and a fighter escort flew low over the station sports field - it was surprisingly emotional. Honington ATC had provided ATC services for some of the filming and we often saw fighter contrails as they fought the "war" above Suffolk.
