As it looks like a Blackburn Swift/Velos/Dart,could be at Brough....?

dook 20th Jan 2020 11:43

Not Brough either.

That type of hangar was used at Upavon.

dook 20th Jan 2020 14:13

But it's not Upavon either.

Perhaps Gosport?

dook 20th Jan 2020 15:49

It isn't Gosport either 56.

Three Lightning squadron numbers and one Jaguar squadron number operated here in the thirties.

dook 20th Jan 2020 19:55

The Lightnings squadrons were 111, 19, and 23.

An Empire Day airfield.

Hendon? tho I'm baffled by your last clue...............

dook 21st Jan 2020 09:08

My last clue simply lists the Empire Day airfields of which the challenge is one, but it's not Hendon.

There is one there which is the answer.

Hornchurch....OH if correct,as/when...

dook 21st Jan 2020 09:58

The challenge has been up for well over 24 hours so I may answer.

It is indeed Hornchurch, sycamore. I'm glad you got there.

sycamore has declared OH.

kenparry 21st Jan 2020 13:23

Ah, Hornchurch!! No aircraft when I went there, but lots of oil drums, planks, and lengths of rope. OASC in its pre- Biggin days.

dook 21st Jan 2020 13:25

Blimey.

You're older than me !!

oxenos 21st Jan 2020 17:14
