I cannot find this photograph in my father’s collection but have a similar one of the same plane taken at RAF Manston in 1932.
Hi Christine. Your name evoked memories of the days in Q building in Research dept at ICI. The website has details of my email, email pictures@stockton.gov.uk and they will forward it on. It would be nice to hear from you and Colin.
This photograph was not taken at Thornaby Aerodrome but during one of 608 Squadrons annual summer camps during the early to mid 1930’s. I would suggest possibly RAF Manston in Kent or RAF Warmwell in Dorset?
