It was a FAA Repair Depot, but as far as I know, there wasn't an airfield there, so not sure how they got the aircraft in and out !

They used a carrier deck lift of course. It went down to an underground hangar that extended to the nearest FAA airfield.

Found it unusual to show a woman measuring another woman's food on a scale.

I do not know what the reason was but it may be the same as some other companies do or did. Gulfstream aircraft in Savannah Ga did that in the mid 90s and the staff and guests were charged by the ounce for the food.

Up that's all for now LOL

I loved these photos of Northolt in 1939/40. I served on 32 there from '74 to '77 and our office was in the Type C hangar on the airfield side. It was especially fascinating to see our old hangar doors being marked up for setting up the guns.

Been a while since I posted something here, thought these where pretty cool for some of them for a diorama or a painting. Found them on Facebook. I think most are on the RNZAAF.

Just realized in that last group there is one 13 hidden in there. Wonder if Jan will find it
