If there is sufficient interest, Bob Balding has volunteered to organise a tour in our cars, on the day before the Fairthorpe Gathering, of what remains of Don Bennett's 8 Group RAF stations before adjourning to a suitable pub where we could have a meal and stay the night. As well as being a small FSCC tribute to the work of the AVM and Bomber Command, it would give those travelling a significant distance to the Gathering an opportunity to break their journey overnight. It should also make the visit to the Pathfinder Collection the following day that much more meaningful.
Most of these stations were fairly close to Wyton - Bourn, Gransden Lodge, Graveley, Little Staughton, Oakington, Upwood and Warboys. A route to take them all in would be arranged for Saturday afternoon, with a chance to take a few pictures at each location.
If this idea appeals to you, please let Bob know (email: thebaldings@btopenworld.com) by Monday, 31 March so that, if enough folk are interested, detailed planning can start.
