And so it is, a plane does not need grass alone to take off and as for landing a Horsa glider was released over (supposed to be) RAF Tarrant Rushton and seeing landing lights touched down, making a very good three point landing on the main runway of Poole harbour. It was salvaged and reused.
The Battle of Britain would have been fought with Hurricaines, Gladiators, Defiants and Battles if it had not been for a sea plane.
I will try and place Calshot on my website next and you will see its RAF history.
One for the memorial page.

It was Manston. Kent International.
One of the two old hangard came from Westgate on Sea seaplane base.
Sadly both gone now.
The bit I doctored was the Invicta Airways Sign on the front - a give away for the County?
Open house?
