    Terrific video -- thanks for posting! My dad & several uncles served in WW2, and I'm in awe of what those millions who served did.

    Flew over here in 2021 in a 1961 Piper Cherokee on its 60th birthday.
    This aircraft based at nearby Sibson Airfield reg G-LIZI.
    Polebrook was nearly developed instead of nearby Molesworth which is reported as closing.

    Very nice flying Ian. We had a meet up at the Thor Missile site with members of Drone Seekers International a few weeks ago. Check out our local member, Kim - Discovering History on UA-cam. He's made some great videos on the history of WW2 sites in the area, including the Thor site.

      All comes down to money and how much needs to be spent ?? Where I live in the New Forest they just got £3 million and that's just for one control tower !
