I had the privilege of interviewing him in 2014 for the Reds' 50th anniversary bookazine. A great character who laid the foundations for one of the world's leading display teams.

Plus Cottesmore, Honington, Woodbridge and one could argue Wattisham. All superb runway assets that should be retained with a sprinkling of C&M.

Harriers at Cottesmore

Hi peeps, just researching Harriers which were based at Cottesmore. I can't tell if the GR9 prototype ZD320/01 flew in or was roaded to the base in early 2010 from Boscombe Down - anyone know? TIA

I think it was when the base was upgraded in 2000 for the arrival of the Harrier force from Germany. The large ASP to the south was created at the same time. Happy to be corrected though!
