Pffff! You've seen this photo before! Lavenham it is. Apparently. I'm taking it on trust, you know what the interweb's like.


Your quite right, i had seen the image before, i saw it on the net a while ago whilst researching P 38 Sqn s using the Morfa Dyffryn range near to Raf Llanbedr.so i did have a bit off a advantage really, so please have another go,
Regards Ian

Try this one. It's in a file I call "I wonder where this is, I'll make the effort to find out someday."

I genuinely don't know, so would appreciate a steer. Bassingbourn maybe?

Here's another one. I've had to move stuff in the loft to make way for decorating. While doing so, I disturbed some sediment moved in when the family home was cleared over a decade ago and never sorted. This has lain undisturbed since my mid teens.

Strad it is. Circa 1966 I think. The prototype Dominie was silver/dayglo, the rest red/white/grey, so it's thereabouts. The original print must have looked good.

Honington is the only airfield I know with its bomb store behind the hangar line. That said, nothing else lines up well. I suspect it could be a generic site so as not to give Jerry any clues. Pathetic, the amount of over-secrecy the British indulged in.
