Gentlemen!

While Yorkshire airfields are "on topic" may I ask a question? Though I cannot guarantee my starting facts, alas!

A cousin was posted over here as a member of the Royal Canadian Air Force during WWII. He was a radio or Radar technician and I have a photo of him sitting beside a hatch in the rear fuselage of a Mosquito while working on some component. My recollection (I was about 12 yrs old) is that he was at "Church Fenton" and the question is whether that could be a correct memory and how to discover what units were posted there, probably 1943 and/or 1944.

Feel free to tell me it is a silly question!

But one reason for raising this at such a late stage is that he sent home with his letters an enormous archive of documents (e.g. every bus ticket from his journeys around England), all of which are due to be delivered to me in the near future. So some specific background would be useful.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
