You can tell a builder from an archaeologist by the size of his trowel. Mine is a small one!
Wartime control tower web site was created by Paul Francis
The control tower web site is now defunct another victim of the Facebook scourge. It was a case of use it or loose it and in the last year or so footfall had significantly dropped.. the site contents has however been saved.

That is sad to know Paul, but Good that the contents have been saved. I often used it, had it my favourites section.

No Amount Of Evidence Will Ever Persuade An Idiot (probably not Mark Twain)

Do people still use facebook? Both my daughters stopped using it on a regular basis as it's T&C's were unpleasant. Maybe it will come back into favour now they have restored the newest post first facility.
I stopped using it when I was moaned at for not "liking" a reply to one of my posts.

Yes, Facebook is still quite a big thing…
I used the control towers website frequently, was very useful.
Who used to run it?

I do not and have never used facebook, so I am gutted that the website has gone over to that dreadful platform. I used the site quite frequently and I too had it saved in my favourites and it and a few other sites got me through a lot of long night shifts studying OS maps, identifying an airfield and looking up the tower.
Shame.
