Hi folks,
From the BBC website:
Fire crews from three counties tackled a major blaze at an airfield in Cambridgeshire on Friday.
Twelve crews from Cambs, Lincs and Northants were sent to Sibson airfield, Peterborough, after the alarm was raised in the morning.
The fire was in a number of temporary buildings on the airfield which operates light air aircraft and is a centre for parachuting.
Fire investigators said the early indications suggest it was arson.
Fire crews faced problems with sourcing water to tackle the flames.
A number of crews were involved in shuttling water to the scene.
Lack of water at an airfield? Not good surely? Hope there's not been too much damage done.
