Re Bader and the equipment officer, my father who was at Duxford at the same time as Bader but on a different squadron, had trenchant views on the adverse impact that his commandeering of all the aircraft spares had on other units at Duxford. Whilst 242 Sqn benefited from his actions it was at the expense of other squadrons who did not get the same priority and suffered as a consequence.

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Tin Ribs, Base Commander was the clue. He was RAAF.

Now I knew two RAF Airfields commanded by Air Cdres, on one I knew one made ACM and the other MRAF, if I had to guess I think I would settle for BZN?
