A real rarity, the ML Aviation Utility Mk 1 crew gondola at the Museum of Berkshire Aviation. 1 of only 2 in existence as we check to see what parts we are missing. @JohnMBrooks1972 @agbdrilling @Rheumatoidman @Shadowc40481222 @militaryhistori @1940Andy @clark_aviation

Just seen an ad on TV for all episodes of 'The Bill'. Reminded me when I was at work and had to visit our south London wine warehouse, and had to use the back entrance as the front was labelled as the Sun Hill Car Pound. The other half of our building was used asSun Hill nick😜

28 June 1948. RAF squadron Leader Basil Arkel (1918-2009) set a new helicopter speed record of 124 mph in a Fairey FB-1 Gyrodyne over a 100 ft. low-altitude two-mile-long course at White Waltham.

💯Brigadier Snow’s return to the public spotlight shows that meaningful historical stories never truly disappear. His role in liberation remains part of the shared heritage of the Channel Islands & UK. One of the most important people in British WW2 history should never be lost⬇️
