The Hurri IIc in its 1942 scheme looks really well and its a pity that its operational life in the ETO was soon to end!

In the very early 70s my Dad used to take me to Ossington to learn how to drive on what was left of the runways, also in the derelict buildings could not believe how much paperwork had been left, wish I had kept some of that, may still be there buried?

Really good stuff, I've subbed and will now check your older vids!

Fabulous video, keep up the great content..thanks for posting.

Very good, thanks for upload. I find these quite emotional.

Listening to the coms chatter on your videos makes it even more real in my mind Chris as it reminds me we are talking about real people who lost their lives,as i come from a Navy family i can tell there is truth in saying "All Ships are Haunted" and I know its not your field of interest so i won't expect or ask you to investigate an old warship.

ABCT memorials & charity.. in my opinion the absolute worst insult to Crews, Airfields, Families & our respect you could possibly ever make, abhorrent. Look at the charities comm accounts aswell as companies house to may your own opinion.

Real men...who gave everything for their country without asking for anything in return... total heroes each and every one and despite the ruin the country is in at the moment they have and will always have my undying respect... Thank you for your service.!!!!!!

Brilliant 😀 I like the way you added the account recording a very interesting story Chris . I would think most airfields have there spirits that pay a visit now and again .

Another really good one.

Fantastic video well put together, great collection of anecdotes

Another excellent video Chris I was always a sceptic but after experiencing strange happenings whilst at an airfield visit I am no longer a sceptic, I look forward to these videos

Chris! It’s Vicky here!! My friend passed on this video to me. It was so wonderful to hear my account from years ago again. Thank you for including it. I still visit Ossington to this day, it is a wonderful place. I truly hope you are well and I’m so pleased to have found your channel! All my very best wishes to you!!

Wow what a great video with some very interesting stories. It certainly sounds like a very atmospheric place. Such a shame the hall, like so many others, was demolished. I always enjoy the music you include in your videos & the old recordings of the air crew. Spot on once again Chris. Thank you 🙏

Another great video Chris, haven’t been up to Ossington for a few months so need to visit again. Nice to hear Vicky’s account, she’s a friend of mine so I know she’s got a great interest in this sort of thing.

Dear Chris , you're ABSOLUTELY smashing it with these videos ! You are very, very good at this. If ever you want to hear about RAF Northolt I can give you a couple of tales.

I’ve read all your books. M

Hello. My University Halls of residence were a former convalescence hospital during WW2, but I only found this out much later. There would be black, swirling mist moving around the halls at night-on one occasion I saw a large black shadow move from a window (overlooking a 40ft something drop) into someone's room. My Laptop played music on it's own, as well as the stereo, and I witnessed two full-bodied apparitions in my room. One seemed to be of a female student, and the second was of a female clerical staff, middle-aged, reaching for something on a shelf. There were no feelings of discomfort or dread at all, I just found it odd. Also the person whose room was visited by the shadow heard knocking on their door, but no one was there.

Excellent video Chris 👍 Nice to see a photo of Halifax HR782 as it was based at RAF Snaith....

Anyone else hear Christopher Plummer say "Help yourself, there's no fighter escort", or "Home and tea, for once you've deserved it". I did. I must get out more, to some aviation museums preferably.

Thanks Chris! Another great video!

Hi Chris. Your name sounds familiar. My dad was in the Dambusters Squadron 617. An Aussie seconded by the RAF.
