North Weald
In 2008, I wrote a book called RAF Wattisham - A Pictorial History which Ad Hoc published. I am now in the process of writing a similar book on the history of RAF North Weald.
I would like to contact any personel who served at North Weald, be it air or ground crew with a view to getting some anecdotes for inclusion.
If you served or know of anyone who did please contact me (PM if preferred).
Thanks,
Dave Eade

Write to the CO of 56 Sqn at RAF Waddington. He will have contact with the 56 Sqn association and some that flew from North Weald during the Battle of Britain. I think Maurice Mounsden is still with us and I think he was a BoB pilot from North Weald.
Give this a try:
Commanding Officer
No 56 Sqn
RAF Waddington
LINCOLN
Sorry, I don't know the postcode.
I also found this for you on the internet here (RAFRA - Squadrons):
56 (F) Squadron Association Secretary: Grp Capt BJ Titchen RAF(Retd), barry.titchen AT btinternet.com
Good luck with the book...

Dear Mr Eade, I was hoping to get in contact with you regarding a project I am working on with North Weald. Am new to this forum and seem unable to PM you. Kindest regards, Jem

Norman Tebbit flew there.
There are quite a few references to it is his book 'Upwardly Mobile'
Cheap second hand copies on Amazon, there is also a fair bit in 'The Battle of Britain - Then and Now' (After the Battle)
