gone but not forgotten
There is mention of a 1953 Whit Monday air display and F86 Sabre Jets etc on the aviation web site in the link below - its a pdf file so you might need Adobe Reader to see it.Does any one remember a later air display, in either 1952 or 53???? I have vague recollections of RCAF F86 sabres; A formation of RAF Canberra's; Seafire FR47's from 1833 Sq RNAS Bramcote etc. but cannot pinpoint the year, yet alone either the exact date or purpose. Was it anything to do with the Coronation?
