I could lose hours on there....
Using Weybridge as a search term brings up a lot of technical reports carried out by Vickers / BAC. There is also a lot about the "Weybridge" strain of Anthrax ??? But modifying the search term keeps it relevant.
I worked there as an apprentice and I recognise some names amongst the authors...
Brings back memories...
Thanks for sharing this Rerun57. Interesting but the search engine is next to useless, though there is some good info, its just difficult to find. Cheers for that.
You can tell a builder from an archaeologist by the size of his trowel. Mine is a small one!
Plenty of interesting stuff, plenty of dross too. As an armourer at Boscombe, 1960-1962, I remember some of the aircraft mentioned. I never did find out why, at that time ,we were still doing carriage and release trials with 1,000lb. iron bombs on the Victor when it had been in service for several years.

Just in case any ever needed dropping on the Falklands, that's why!
