There seem to be copies on Ebay quite often - search on 'West Malling' or perhaps Amazon?. I'll happily sign anything you buy but I'm afraid I don't have any copies to sell!

Just a short "hello" and to say that I was drawn to the Website and Forum because I was searching on the internet for information about a couple of airfields, or at least fields which have allegedly been used by aircraft at some stage, around Birmingham. Namely, Great Barr and Wythall. I have always had a general interest in airfields (I am 54) and in particular those small sites which were around during WWI and the interwar civil sites. I look forward to reading more from the Forum and contributing where I can - certainly for example I do have some information about Heronfield, Warwickshire on which I see one poster wanted some details.

Welcome to the forum oldmangonewest. The pre-war airfields get little mention but there is an excellent book covering your area written by Alfred Jenks. Also lookuout for "Peaceful Fields" by John Hamlin which is a directory of most of the the inter-war landing grounds.

New member just signed on. Like you all, I have an interest in airfields (and aeroplanes); I spend most of my days (nights - I'm a shift worker) on one and have read many of the thread on this site with interest. I used to live in the UK and have visited a number of different airfields around the country, so some of the places listed here are familiar to me. Looking forward to getting on with it.

Nelson Airport in New Zealand's South Island. The aircraft are Hudsons and Kittyhawks.
