Oh dear, that puts me on the spot...no very good pics and a huge learning curve to get them from the ancient album to here...here goes with one...

I can't get the photo onto the page, even though I'm following the instructions at the top of the forum...

The link is

The hills (to the SW) are a clue...it was taken around 1988..


All I get on the edit screen is a little box with the picture symbol, and nothing when saved.

[old,not bold]

Sorry!

It's the only photo, bar an even more difficult one, that I've got..

You're looking SW and there's an estuary between you and the hills...and a fruity NDB down there somewhere over the Spit's nose

BTW, not Compton Abbas or Dunsfold

If I can get this pic on, it's the same aerodrome, different bird, and fairly easy...

Nope, still won't do it, here's the URL

Exeter Airfield

Forgive for the digression but I found a photograph of a number of C-47 belonging to the USAAF 440th Troop Carrier Group ranged on Exeter Airfield on the 5th June 1944 on the same part of the airfield that old,not bold's photograph was taken.
